NHS trust £14m debt partly 'due to patient system failure'

NHS trust £14m debt partly 'due to patient system failure' The failure of a computerised patient record system lost an NHS trust £10m, according to its chief executive.

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust said the system failed to keep a record of "all activity taking place".

Because of this the trust was unable to bill the NHS Gloucestershire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) for work, including operations.

InterSystems, which provided the TrakCare system, declined to comment. BBC News
