IBM wins contract to support NHS App
Department of Health agency said Big Blue had won the deal for consulting, software development, and support for the NHS App, first launched in early 2019.
"The NHS's Long-Term Plan objectives state that the NHS App will create a standard online way for people to access the NHS and that the app will work seamlessly with other services at national and local levels and, where appropriate, be integrated into patient pathways," the notice said. The notice added that the NHS App gives patients access to core NHS transaction services and visibility of their records.
