12 December 2018 - NICE has published new standards setting out the requirements needed to develop digital health technologies for the NHS, to accelerate uptake of products like healthcare apps and wearable devices.
Multiple recent surveys, such as a Roche investigation that revealed 82% of ‘Generation Z’ want to see the NHS introduce digital solutions, are showing the digital revolution is rapidly evolving, with new technologies such as apps and wearable devices emerging at a fast pace.
To keep up with this evolution, NICE has created a set of standards to help developers and investors understand what evidence is required to introduce their product for use in the NHS.
