Description
Contract for the provision of the following services for the Virtual Hospital (VH) programme Alpha Development Phase 2: Digital Definition, DevOps, End to End Development and Data Management Services. This contract can also be used to support a number of short term/time bound/outcome based statements of work across related initiatives.
To address the significant challenge to improve planned (elective) care performance and drive productivity improvements, as outlined in The Elective Reform Plan and The 10 Year Plan, the Virtual Hospital Programme is working to establish a new, NHS owned, national digital elective care provider that focusses solely on delivering elective care virtually. It will offer an expanding range of end-to-end specialist elective care services, as a choice for all patients across England.
The digital-first entity will deliver patient care unconstrained by geographical boundaries, offering the ability to better align clinical capacity with patient demand. Patient pathways will be delivered remotely, utilising the existing workforce more effectively through flexible working arrangements whilst taking full advantage of the latest technologies and innovations to deliver standardised and timely patient care.
