Mike Andersson

Mike Andersson is a healthcare informatics and information governance specialist. He has extensive experience as a board-level director and consultant (principally on national projects).

Though he has spent much of his career as a strategic consultant and policy developer, Mike has considerable experience of working in the NHS, including five years as IT director in a specialist hospital trust. He started his career in the IT department of a major teaching hospital and eventually headed the IT service there for several years before moving into consultancy.

In addition to a wide range of hospitals, Mike has experience working for many other health-related organisations, including several central NHS IT bodies, government departments, and system suppliers to the NHS, as well as regulatory and professional standards bodies.

A graduate of Cambridge University, Mike has an extensive track record of working to minimise the risks to patient safety and cyber security in the use of digital technology in healthcare. The natural extension of this commitment has been to serve as a trustee at Avma.
