Dr Jon Fistein reflects on the current position and future direction of NHS England’s Advisory Group for Data.
Having been appointed Chair of NHS England’s Advisory Group for Data (AGD) earlier this year, and now beginning to settle into the role, this feels like the right moment to set out where we are and where I think we need to be. AGD provides NHS England with expert advice and assurance on how patient data is accessed and used. We exist because the public expects, and deserves, careful and visible scrutiny of how that is done.
