HC Deb 21 July 1980 vol 989 c95W
Dr. Mawhinney

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services (1) if he has any plans to permit the installation of the problem-orientated medical information system, called PROMTS in any National Health Service hospital;

(2) if he will make available to a regional health authority of his choice funds to install the problem-orientated medical information system called PROMIS so that its medical administrative and economic potential can be determined.

Sir George Young

A proposal from the Camden and Islington area health authority (teaching), seeking substantial research and development funds to install and assess the problem-orientated medical information system called PROMIS at the Royal Free hospital, is currently being considered. The decision will be conveyed to the authority as soon as possible.
