Identity and Access Management provides a trusted digital identity service for health and care staff that authorises access to health and care information systems. This authentication allows the health and care professional to log on and access those systems securely through a range of access options.

Our vision

Our vision is to provide secure, convenient access to clinical information and services for all care workers, in any care setting.

Our missions

Our missions are to:

  • make it easy - we enable convenient access to the right information at the right time
  • make it safe - we ensure patient data in national systems is protected
  • make it work - we resolve current or urgent impediments to delivery of care
