This event aims to cover all aspects of electronic patient-discharge summaries and focus on integration between primary and secondary healthcare providers. In particular, it will give an up-to-date overview of current methods, examine some of the local and national difficulties that need to be overcome and consider ways in which major improvements can be made.
A series of keynote presenters, case histories and practical sessions will
