Clinvera TAP

Check your technology against what an NHS organisation will actually ask

34 requirements across 6 layers, from clinical safety to accessibility. Answer a short set of questions and see which of them apply to you, and which you cannot yet evidence. It is free, and it takes about ten minutes.

No account needed. Nothing is shared with anyone.

What the free check does

  • Works out which requirements apply to your technology, and says why the rest do not.
  • Marks what you already hold, on your word, and what is missing.
  • Pins the standards library version, so the result can be explained months later.

What it does not do

  • It does not check your documents. Nobody has read them yet.
  • It does not approve your technology for use. That decision belongs to the adopting organisation.
  • It is not legal or regulatory advice.

The six layers

  1. 01 NHS clinical safety7 requirements

    Statutory under the Health and Social Care Act 2012. An organisation cannot lawfully deploy health software in England without this, and it is the first thing a clinical safety officer asks for.

  2. 02 Procurement and cyber security9 requirements

    The national gateway. DTAC is the baseline every NHS buyer applies, and the Data Security and Protection Toolkit is the annual assurance behind it.

  3. 03 Medical device and AI regulation6 requirements

    Whether the technology is a medical device is a question of intended purpose, not of how it is built. Getting the answer wrong is the most expensive mistake on this list.

  4. 04 Immersive technology at the point of care5 requirements

    The part that is specific to headsets and immersive delivery. This is where Clinvera's own protocol work sits, and where most suppliers have nothing written down.

  5. 05 Accessibility and usability4 requirements

    Applies to every interface a patient or a clinician touches, and is assessed directly by DTAC.

  6. 06 Clinical evidence and training3 requirements

    What the technology is claimed to do has to be supported, and the people delivering it have to be competent to do so.
