Description

We are seeking to understand and contribute to the development of the future requirements of NHS trusts, clinicians and patients who use video consultation technology to deliver/receive care. In particular we want to better understand what has worked to date and what needs to be considered going forward to better support care transformation for the benefit of patients.

We also want to develop a clear overview of the supplier market for healthcare video consulting platforms so that we can help trusts identify the technology options that meet the needs of their patients and clinicians beyond March 2021. As part of this commission, we also require support to actively engage with the market for healthcare video consultation platforms to ensure they are informed of our policy direction and the requirements of the sector.
