The NHS is increasingly focusing on leveraging technology to enhance clinical practice and improve patient outcomes. With the growing complexity of healthcare needs, innovative technological solutions are critical for advancing clinical efficiency and effectiveness. This award recognises technology providers and companies that have partnered with NHS organisations to apply data and technology in clinical practice, where the technology itself is driving better clinical decisions, outcomes or efficiency. Eligible projects should demonstrate clear and measurable clinical improvements within the last two years. This category is about data and technology actively improving clinical care; partnerships whose focus is building and implementing a system should enter Best Technology Partnership with the NHS, and those getting more from technology the NHS already has should enter Optimising the Effectiveness of Technology Partnership of the Year.

Eligibility

  • Entrants must be technology providers or companies that have partnered with an NHS organisation to apply data and technology in clinical practice, where the technology is the thing delivering improved clinical decisions, outcomes or efficiency. 
  • Eligible projects should have shown clear results within the last two years up to the awards submission deadline.

Ambition
