Dear Kingston Primary Care Trust (PCT),

Under the freedom of information act, please could you tell me:
1) The names of any hospitals (including any secondary care provision such as community or mental health) that fall under your control.
2) Whether any of the afore mentioned bodies use digital dictation and/or Speech Recognition. If so which organisations use what systems?
3) If none are used or they are only used in some areas, are there any plans to implement these type of systems more extensively to increase efficiency and improve patient care?

Yours faithfully,
