CMS restructures Prodigy for NHS
Tracey Caldwell
An innovative collaboration between a health information provider and an enterprise content management vendor has improved access to medical guidance on the NHS Prodigy clinical information system.
Newcastle-based Schin supplies the Prodigy Knowledge service, a regularly updated clinical guidance service for clinicians. Prodigy Knowledge consists of more than 150 clinical "guidances", which are stored in a detailed narrative form, as well as drug information on prescriptions, drug recommendations, references and citations for drug information -- linking to the evidence and printable patient information leaflets.
