Overview
NHS England is seeking to understand market interest, capacity, and capability to deliver a range of clinical and regulatory capabilities to support the development, and assist with assurance, of digital products and services. This early market engagement includes identifying potential enablers and barriers to successful delivery.
NHS England may subsequently commission a programme of work to scope and procure these services. The digital clinical and regulatory capabilities being sought include: • Clinical Safety Assurance of Digital Products • Clinical Safety Engineering • Medical Device Services • Clinical Content Authoring • Clinical Subject Matter Experts.
Crucially, the programme will design a future feedback model that is accessible, inclusive, and reflective of the full diversity of patient health journeys. It will align with strategic enablers such as the NHS App and Federated Data Platform (FDP), and support implementation of the commitments set out in the NHS 10YHP.
