Hospitals suffer in computer fiasco - Telegraph
Extract:
"Hospitals have been hit by 200 "major incidents" in four months because of breakdowns in the NHS's £12 billion computer system, a report claims today.
The problems, affecting dozens of hospitals between last October and January, led to doctors being unable to call up X-rays on computer screens in wards and operating theatres, creating delays in treatment. Some hospitals also lost access to records on appointments and planned treatments.
The report in Computer Weekly magazine is another blow to the Government's scheme to centralise the records of 50 million patients and link 30,000 GPs to 300 hospitals by 2012."
