Having just been to a London hospital today, this does not surprise me. Most "data" consists of photocopied forms filled out with handwritten notes that are passed from department to department by use of foot, in-trays and luck. It's like going back 30 years in time.

However, to hack in to that system would not be easy... Nobody knows where anything is!
