Why are we working with hospices

At Here, our purpose is Exceptional care, for everyone. That includes supporting hospices to unlock the value of their clinical data.

  • Many hospices now use SystmOne, a powerful but complex EPR system.
  • We’ve faced similar challenges and invested in analytics infrastructure to make it work.
  • Our partnerships began with a shared question: “We have great data—how do we use it?”
  • We offer support that builds internal capability—not dependency.
  • Our goal is to help hospices use data to improve care and demonstrate impact.

Why it matters

Hospices are under increasing pressure to participate in NHS data initiatives and prove their value.

 

  • Programmes like Faster Data Flows and CSDS require timely, structured data.
  • Visibility of activity and impact in the health system is essential.
  • Most hospices lack the data engineering capacity to meet these demands.
  • Modern EPR systems offer rich data, but accessing and using it is challenging.
  • Without structured analytics, teams spend time fixing reports instead of measuring impact.
  • We help hospices move beyond “analysis paralysis” to use data strategically.

Insights that shape our approach

Our experience shows that every hospice is unique, but the challenges are shared.

 

  • No one-size-fits-all solution—each hospice has different systems and constraints.
  • What’s transferable is the know-how—connecting systems, structuring data, and enabling teams.
  • Hospices want support, not outsourcing—they’re eager to learn and grow.
  • Our approach is scalable, sustainable, and rooted in real-world healthcare experience
  • We focus on:
    • Population health and equity
    • Impact measurement and IPOS
    • Building internal analytics capability
