Written question asked by Charlotte Nichols (Labour) on Monday, 27 March 2023, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 29 March 2023. It was answered by Will Quince (Conservative) on Thursday, 13 April 2023 on behalf of the Department of Health and Social Care.


NHS: Microsoft

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether Microsoft has been compliant with the Digital Technology Assessment Criteria since it first provided its Teams software to the NHS in 2021.

Answer

Digital Technology Assessment Criteria was launched in February 2021. We therefore do not believe that an assessment was made by NHS Digital when contracting with Microsoft against the Digital Technology Assessment Criteria as it was in consultation phase. National Health Service organisations may have chosen to use Microsoft Teams locally prior to 2021.
