Independent Healthcare Providers Awards
Recognising excellence in the provision of clinical service to the NHS
The current healthcare landscape in the UK is characterised by significant reliance on Independent Healthcare Providers (IHPs) to meet the demands of an overburdened NHS system. IHPs have been instrumental in addressing both acute and chronic challenges within the healthcare system, ensuring sustainability and improved patient care. Their role has become even more crucial as the NHS grapples with the workforce challenges and ongoing financial pressures.
The HSJ Independent Healthcare Providers Awards (IHP Awards), incorporated into the HSJ Partnership Awards for the inaugural event, recognise and celebrate the invaluable contributions of IHPs to the NHS. These awards offer a spotlight for IHPs to demonstrate their vital role in complementing NHS services especially during times of high demand. The awards showcase exemplary achievements, fostering innovation and integration across the healthcare system, and enhancing IHPs' visibility and credibility. This recognition encourages continued collaboration, serving as a benchmark of excellence and offering IHPs a prestigious opportunity to influence the broader healthcare agenda, ensuring their integral role in a more integrated and productive healthcare system.
This awards programme is judged by senior NHS figures, including many trust and ICS executives. HSJ’s unparalleled reach into and standing among NHS leaders ensures the shortlisted and winning entries are acknowledged by those with the greatest influence.

Entrants must be independent healthcare providers that offer services free at the point of care to NHS patients, in any setting. Projects can be conducted independently or in collaboration with an NHS organisation. While a partnership with the NHS is encouraged, it is not mandatory. However, all projects must serve NHS patients and provide evidence from the past two years up until the awards deadline date. For specific eligibility per category, please check our categories page.
The Independent Healthcare Providers Awards winners are automatically shortlisted for the wider HSJ Awards programme - providing a second chance to win, and even greater exposure.
