Patient Healthcare Communications and Related IT Services Framework

Description

The Patient and Healthcare Communications and Related IT Services project will encompass a suite of services which will help health-care suppliers deliver improved and modern care for patients in a post Covid-19 world. Amongst others, it will ensure commitment to delivering modern, efficient, and patient-centered care in a digital age. This is a replacement for the current NHSE 'Endorsed' framework. NHS in its long-term plan, has committed to a digital transformation agenda, aiming to leverage technology to enhance efficiency, improve patient experience, and deliver more personalised care. The UK Government mandates all digital services and IT systems used by the NHS to meet a clear set of open standards. Thus any system which does not meet these standards will be phased out. This is a replacement of the existing NHS England endorsed FWA accredidated by 'NHS Framework Strategy Recommendation' programme.
