MARTIN CURLEY DIRECTOR OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION AND OPEN INNOVATION , HSE
Prof Martin Curley presented a Leap Frog strategy to the HSE board in April 2020 that proposed the new Digital Health System should be focused around the patient and centred around a secure patient electronic health record . In addition to Curley , several other key leaders collaborated with one another in an digital transformation ecosystem : Dr Donal Bailey , innovation director of the country ’ s largest GP network ; Eileen Byrne , CEO of Clanwilliam , the largest GP Practice software supplier in the country ; Una Kearns , CEO of MyPatientSpace ; and Dr Mohammad Al-Ubaydli , CEO of the world ’ s leading personal electronic health record .
The aim of this ecosystem was to create a working prototype instantiation of a digital health platform that could help move the point of care rapidly to the patient and the home . With further work , the potential is there to create an architecture that empowers patients , that is 10 times simpler and 10 times more productive than what exists today ,
