Digital Healthcare and Insourcing’s Role in Achieving the NHS Net Zero Target: HBSUK Perspectives (opens form to access)
Digital healthcare and clinical insourcing play a vital role in helping the NHS achieve its net-zero ambitions by driving sustainable, efficient service delivery. This paper explores how Healthcare Business Solutions UK (HBSUK) supports these goals through a blended model that combines on-site clinical insourcing with digital innovation via its HBS Platform. By deploying specialist teams during underutilised hours, HBSUK increases NHS capacity without the environmental burden of additional infrastructure or excessive patient travel. At the same time, our platform facilitates secure, remote consultations that lower emissions, reduce missed appointments, and streamline processes through automation. Together, these approaches align with the NHS’s commitment to sustainability across environmental, economic, and clinical outcomes.
