Lorenzo was a controversial electronic health record platform (EHR) by DXC Technology, originally designed in the early 2010s as part of the National Programme for IT in the NHS.
Lorenzo has been a highly criticised platform, with NHS reviews and coroner investigations finding the system responsible for a number of adverse patient events.

Delays in the provision of data to NHS England's waiting list system were linked to Lorenzo implementations in an HSJ article in May 2014.
