Health Direct- NHS Direct plans for future
Helath Direct- written House of Commons Parliamentary answers on Tuesday 5 July 2005
Andrew Lansley (South Cambridgeshire, Con)
To ask the Secretary of State for Health whether Health Direct will be established as a subsidiary of NHS Direct; whether NHS Direct and Health Direct will share the same access points; and if she will make a statement.
Caroline Flint (Parliamentary Under-Secretary, Department of Health)
Health Direct will be set up from 2007. It will be developed as a telephone, internet and digital television service. The aim is to provide easily accessible information on health choices. It will include links to existing health improvement services, including diet, nutrition and support for parents.
A scoping study is being undertaken during 2005 to establish customer, operational and technical requirements for Health Direct. The decision to determine which are the most appropriate management and operational structures to deliver the Health Direct service will be taken in spring 2006, prior to commencement of a procurement phase, which we expect to complete by the end of 2006.
