I have been a GP for 22 years, holding educational supervisor and senior partner roles. The challenging and formative experience of rebuilding a valley practice gave me insight into the clinical leadership and business management required to improve patient outcomes with limited resources. In an effort to a make an additional contribution to the health and well being of people in Wales I entered a career in medical management in 2011 and was appointed to Assistant Medical Director for value-based care in the Aneurin Bevan University Health Board in 2014. In 2018 I was appointed to the role of National Clinical Lead for Value-based healthcare in Wales and was awarded an honorary Chair at Swansea University Medical School. I am a member of cohort 3 of the NHS Digital Academy and a Fellow of the Faculty of Clinical Informatics. I am a regular international speaker on the concept of value in healthcare.
