Robbie Cline

Robbie is the Chief Information Officer (CIO) for the NW London Acute Provider Group. He has been the key driving force in the implementation and optimisation of a single instance of the Cerner electronic patient record (EPR) system across the APG. As Director of ICT Programmes at Imperial College Healthcare, he led the implementation of the EPR at Imperial, and then played a key role in extending it to Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. He became Joint CIO for London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust and The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in 2020 and oversaw the adoption of the Cerner EPR at those two trusts. He took up his current role in 2024 and continues to drive convergence of systems and the establishment of a single IT department for the APG. The NHS digital maturity assessment results for 2025 show the four APG trusts side by side in the top 10 for acute trusts nationally.
