Will NHS.UK be the next GOV.UK?

Will NHS.UK be the next GOV.UK? When Jon Rouse presented his part of the plans to improve digital services for the health and care sector at the National Information Board meeting in June he focused on just one thing:

"Our number one priority is that we create a single portal. All services [will] start and end with that single portal. Services are developed against consistent standards, with a consistent look and offer, and can be all accessed through that single portal with customers coming in through multiple channels. I haven’t got time to talk about the rest."

In other words, NHS.UK – currently NHS Choices – will be the place we go, not just for information about health and local services, but to book appointments, manage repeat prescriptions and (eventually) access health records and care plans. The King's Fund
