Opportunity to participate in Tests of Change for Technology Enabled Care

Building on the work of the Technology Enabled Care (TEC) programme, funding of up to £15,000 is being offered for around 6 technology enabled care Tests of Change.  This offer is open to any NHS Board, Integration Authority, Housing, Independent or Third Sector organisation and is intended, primarily, as a support to inform local or organisational planning and commissioning activity.

The aim of any application must align with the overarching TEC programme aim which is to support more citizens to make greater use of technology to manage their own health and wellbeing at home and in the community.  A test of change should seek to demonstrate measurable improvement in outcomes either directly to individuals or indirectly through improved service delivery processes.

For more information, please read the letter of invitation.

To apply, you must complete a Test of Change Planning template and table (contained in the above letter of invitation).

These must be submitted to NSS.TEC @nhs.net by the 11th November 2016
