Description

NHS Digital requires critical appraisal of the research that underpins healthcare news stories. These stories (six per week) will be selected by NHS Digital in collaboration with the supplier.

The supplier will work collaboratively with NHS Digital content staff who will edit the analysis and re-present it to the supplier to be validated as clinically and scientifically accurate, fair and balanced. NHS Digital will then publish the content.
