Ep 24. INNOVATORS - Pioneering cost-effective biologics prescribing with a shared decision making tool

Talking Rheumatology

Can a new web tool drive shared decision making and cost effective biologics prescribing across NHS trusts?

In this episode of our Innovators mini-series, Emily Rose-Parfitt and Philip Hamann join Lizzy MacPhie to showcase the truly pioneering RxInvolve web tool, which aids shared and clinical decision making for biologics prescribing. With patient feedback indicating high satisfaction, plus cost savings of over £200K for North Bristol NHS Trust in its first year of use, development of the tool won the team a 2024 BSR Best Practice Award.

Our guests discuss how the RxInvolve tool can be used effectively in different clinical settings, lessons learnt from their funding and development journey, and their exciting plans for expansion across Trusts and specialties.
