Dr. Vijay Magon named as a One To Watch in The LDC Top 50

LDC’s John Garner added, "The last 18 months have presented challenges that none of us could have foreseen, but despite everything, it’s fantastic to see that so many business leaders have achieved some truly remarkable things. This year’s Ones to Watch group epitomises that fighting spirit and have truly impressed the judges with their stories of growth and ambition. Congratulations to all those featured and we look forward to seeing their continued success and impact, and contribution the broader UK economy."

Under Vijay Magon’s stewardship, CCube Solutions has achieved a tremendous amount since it was founded in 2005 as summarised below.

Customer excellence

• The business has made digital transformation a reality for many Trusts saving them millions of pounds in the process whilst improving clinical/patient engagement. Over the past 10 years, in excess of £35 million has been saved by just three CCube customers alone through the removal of paper-based processes and libraries.
• 30 NHS Trusts and Health Boards across the country from Cornwall to Orkney now use CCube Solutions’ software. Given there are about 233 trusts in the UK – and at least half have yet to shift to digital patients records at all – over 25% of all Trusts that have made the transition use CCube’s EDRMS.
• 15,000 NHS users now access CCube’s software on a daily basis accessing over 350 million documents related to patient care. The Ministry of Defense also has a system which has 150 million medical records of military personnel.
• Customer retention is impressive; 15 years is the average and longest – at 20 years – is Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust.
• CCube Solutions has a track record of innovation. In 2009, St Helens & Knowsley was the 1st Trust in the UK to stop using paper records in clinical practice. They deployed CCube’s EDRMS using a scan-on-demand approach which entailed only digitising the paperwork it needed to retain. The Trust is saving £1.4 million per annum not having to move 7,000 paper files per week around its sites further to a one-off investment of £1.2 million. Around 500 doctors and 130 medial secretaires use the system on a daily basis.
• Based on the success of medical records digitization in secondary care, CCube Solutions – working in partnership with St Helens Health Informatics Service – launched a solution for primary care called e-LGS to digitise and electronically store so-called Lloyd George records held at all GP surgeries. These are the medical records in manilla envelopes written prior to digitisation becoming widely adopted by GPs in the early 2000s. Doctors are legally required to store this content often well after a patient’s death. A typical practice has 11,000 patients and 13,000 wallets. Today, 100 GP practices in the Northwest of England use the e-LGS system.
