Increased support for dementia carers will be one of six innovations as the Department of Health ramps up is technology capability.
The DoH has worked with the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement and NHS Improvement to launch a new support website.
The web site will allow users to learn about innovations and read case studies with access to online communities.
Discussion forums will enable the NHS, public and private sectors, academics, and scientific and business communities to share ideas and post details of their own innovations.
And the first six innovations the DoH also has planned will include; increased support for carers of people with dementia; more use of technology to enable healthcare services access remotely; and national roll-out of assistive technologies, telehealth and telecare, to 3m people by April 2017.
They will also look at reducing assessment to delivery time of children's wheelchairs, more use of intra-operative fluid management and increased promotion of NHS IP and knowledge internationally.
Miles Ayling, director of innovation at the Department of Health, said: "We have the potential to create the best healthcare system in the world, but the very best ideas often take too long to spread.
"Our ambition must be to accelerate the speed and spread of those ideas, and for the NHS to be defined by its commitment to innovation.
"This new website has been designed to do just that, and will put innovators in touch with each other right across the NHS. It can also be accessed publicly, so that patients, the public and business can get involved."
The moves have come following the NHS' commitment in the NHS CE report Innovation Health and Wealth to maximise existing technology and innovation capability.
