Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the cost of their proposal to maintain a fully iOS native, a fully Android native, and a computer/web browser version of the NHS app, by comparison to the current arrangements.

NHS England routinely assesses options for the future technological development of the NHS App. This includes due regard to cost, appropriate use of artificial intelligence, and most importantly how changes will best enhance the service for patients.

A roadmap of future developments is available at the NHS.UK website, in an online only format.
