that truly represents a step change in healthcare
practice, improves health and/or delivers economic
benefits and is aligned to your strategic objectives
how are you able to respond?
Operating model - Pull
Innovation pull - if you have identified a gap in
provision in the NHS or social care in the West
Midlands, represented by one of our clinical
priorities, or that you feel could be addressed by one
of our enabling themes, please get in touch to see
how collaboration could potentially provide solutions
Opportunities for innovation
The WMAHSN has an ongoing opportunity for innovations, where
potential partners are offered the chance to come up with new ways of
solving local health and social care challenges. We are interested to
hear from industrial, healthcare, academic and third sector partners
who feel they can work with us on potential innovative solutions,
models and technologies that address the challenges faced by the local
health economy
Approved proposals will receive support from the WMAHSN in various
ways. We are seeking proposals for partnership approaches, and while
these may identify resource requirements,
this is not a bidding process.
