Alcidion chosen as preferred supplier in UK
Alcidion Group (ASX:ALC) jumped 23% this morning after announcing that it has been chosen as the preferred supplier for North Cumbria Integrated Care (NCIC) NHS Foundation Trust's new Electronic Patient Record (EPR) system, following a rigorous competitive tender process.

This selection marks a significant milestone in Alcidion's relationship with NCIC, expanding upon its existing collaboration where Alcidion's Patient Administration System (Silverlink PCS) has been instrumental in meeting operational needs.

Located in the north of the UK, NCIC serves approximately half a million people across multiple hospitals and community health facilities.

The Trust is an integral part of the North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care System, collaborating closely with primary care networks and support services.

Alcidion will deploy its comprehensive Miya Precision platform, integrating a suite of solutions including the Silverlink PCS, already operational within the Trust.

This implementation aims to provide clinicians with real-time access to patient records, streamline patient flow, and enhance clinical decision-making processes.

Alcidion Group Managing Director, Kate Quirke, said Alcidion's solution will enable NCIC to expand its digital capabilities while safeguarding current investments.

“At a time when the healthcare system is under enormous pressure, we see this increased speed to deliver value as a real opportunity for our customers,” said Quirke.
