Working directly with GP practices, the company is developing critical infrastructure that removes friction from accessing healthcare, making it easier for patients to navigate the NHS while reducing administrative burden for clinicians. Today, 26% of GP practices in England use Healthtech-1's patient registration software, while one in five GP practices in London use its Bookable Search product to help new patients find and book appointments seamlessly. Its latest product, Bookable Navigator, extends this vision by automatically booking appointments for existing patients. Founded in East London and operating from within a working GP practice, Healthtech-1 builds products alongside the clinicians and patients who use them every day. Backed by Y Combinator, Innovate UK and the NHS Clinical Entrepreneur Programme, the company was previously ranked the 8th fastest-growing startup in the UK and 33rd fastest-growing in Europe. Its mission is to make one billion NHS appointments transparent and bookable, because healthcare isn't truly free until it's truly accessible.

JSMonthly London July Meetup #208

July Gophers @ AutogenAI - Sponsored by Dexory!

**The last thing everyone wants right now: a warm welcome...BUT YOU'RE GETTING ONE ANYWAY!** **Welcome one and all to July Gophers @ Autogen.AI, sponsored by Dexory!** As always, a huge thank you to **AutogenAI** for hosting us this month, and **Dexory** for sponsoring the event! ==== 📓 **Agenda**📓 ===== (Certain timings and orders may be subject to change) **6:30pm:** Arrival, Food & Refreshments **6:55pm:** Introduction **7:00pm:** 🗣️ **Afzal Muhammad: Building Reliable Workflow in Golang Using DBOS** DBOS ([https://www.dbos.dev/](https://www.dbos.dev/)) is a new framework to develop reliable workflows (or durable executions) on the cloud in a very easy way. To build a reliable workflow we usually need a mixture of idempotency, restart exactly from failure point, exactly-once processing, observable queues, and other features. Using traditional methods like AWS Lambda or Step Functions can get you only so far, before your system starts to become very complex and costly! DBOS provides all these features foundationally though a system design innovation done at MIT which keeps complexity at bay and cost to only what you use. The Golang SDK was recently released and I would like to show how to build workflows using the SDK. **7:40pm:** Raffle and Break **8:00pm: 🗣️** **Charles Forsyth: Speaking More Fluently in Go** I'd written a complete web application for language learning, designed by a language teacher. The back-end was C# with EntityFramework; the front-end was Vue.js/JavaScript. On the road to Damascus (well, train to Newcastle for a Go meet-up) suddenly I decided to convert the backend to Go. I discuss how I approached that, did it, and the successful result, where the new system replaced the old without anyone noticing, including the front-end (except it was faster). **8:30pm:** Raffle Winners! **9:00pm:** Pub! ==== 💡 **RSVP Details** 💡 ===== When submitting your RSVP for this event, please be sure to use your **full first name and last name**, as some of our venues require these in order to let you in on the door.
