An innovation partnership supporting the future of general practice sees OX.DH partnering with FDB to shape medicines intelligence in primary care. 

The collaboration brings together Oxford Digital Health’s 100% cloud-native technology and FDB’s new Multilex Cloud capabilities into OX.DH’s clinical system for primary care. 

OXDH’s primary care solution compliance with the NHS England Tech Innovation Framework delivers a modern, intuitive primary care solution with the future firmly in mind. As part of accelerating that modernisation, this new partnership streamlines medicines data management and prescribing, delivering a major step forward in driving safer, more connected, and more efficient healthcare. 

FDB Multilex is used at the point of care as an e-prescribing decision support tool and drug database. It is in use at more than 10,000 sites in the UK. Integrating into existing clinical workflows, it enables "context-specific drug knowledge and enhanced functionality", helping to reduce prescribing errors. FDB recently announced the launch of Multilex in the Cloud to provide NHS organisations and partners with a smarter and faster way to access up-to-date clinical decision support.  

"OX.DH’s cloud-native platforms stand out due to their inherent flexibility, rigorous security standards, and ability to integrate seamlessly with solutions like Multilex. These factors make our solutions ideally suited to the evolving digital needs of the NHS. Our strategic collaboration with the NHS, and our pivotal technology partnership with Microsoft helps to further our mission to give patients and clinicians an easier and better experience," said John Kosobucki, CEO, OX.DH. 

In July, NHS England approved OX.DH’s primary care solution, OX.gp, as part of a new generation of electronic patient record systems for GPs. CEO John Kosobucki referred to qualifying for TIF as "a game-changing achievement", adding: "This expands our ability to support the NHS in driving digital innovation at speed and scale. Our products are purpose-built for today’s healthcare challenges, designed with cutting-edge technology to securely enhance patient care and streamline clinical workflows.” 

Developed in collaboration with GP practices and PCNs, OX.gp offers a scalable, holistic, 21st century alternative to legacy primary care IT systems. Designed around future-ready architecture, it is built to evolve with the NHS, offering customisation and flexibility to adapt to different workflows and patient needs. It also offers enhanced reporting through real-time dashboards, seamless interoperability between care settings, and smart automation with inbuilt messaging, reminders, and questionnaires.
