A Better Way Into NHS Services
Accessing NHS services should be simple, so why do so many patients and carers still struggle to find the right support the first time?
As systems move toward more integrated, neighbourhood-based care, the challenge of providing clear, consistent access and the right information the first time is becoming more urgent. Many patients still end up calling the wrong number, attending urgent care unnecessarily, or disengaging completely, leading to costly misdirection, repeat calls, and increased administrative burden.
So, where to start?
Join NHS leaders, digital transformation teams, and healthcare innovation specialists for a practical discussion to explore the realities of creating a true digital front door.
This open discussion will focus on what’s working, what isn’t, and what organisations are learning as they try to simplify access across complex local services. We’ll explore how digital front doors are evolving, the governance and safety considerations behind AI-supported navigation, and the practical steps required to ensure patients can ask routine access questions, receive trusted local answers, and be guided to the right next step.

In this session, you'll get the chance to experience EBO's Single Point of Access and Navigation (SPAN) solution.
Co-designed with NHS teams, SPAN supports neighbourhood-based care by simplifying navigation across increasingly integrated primary, community and local services while reducing avoidable demand on manual access channels.
By bringing together local service information, pathways and guidance into one conversational interface, SPAN:
✔️ Simplifies access across community, acute and local NHS services
✔️ Reduces avoidable demand on manual channels
✔️ Supports more connected neighbourhood-based care
✔️ Enables patients to ask routine access questions in plain language
✔️ Targets a 3x operational return on investment (ROI)
✔️ Guides patients/carers to the most appropriate next step safely
