NHS Technology Adoption Centre

The NHS Technology Adoption Centre’s (NTAC) mission is to work directly with the NHS at a clinical, managerial and procurement level. The NTAC is based in Manchester and was launched in September 2007 with the following key aims:

• To assist organisations to navigate the complexities of the ‘NHS adoption landscape’
• To work with partners to identify those technologies which will provide cost effective improved patient outcomes in the NHS
• To work with NHS Trusts to support the sustainable implementation of new technology as an integral part of service and system solutions, identifying where changes to the pathway or service may be needed to unlock the full benefits of the technology
• To produce detailed NHS focused Guides detailing how the technology can be successfully implemented and the benefits to both patients and organisations that can be achieved

NTAC meets these aims by working with NHS Trusts to embed innovative technologies in real-time NHS environments. The Centre’s team works with a range of organisations to promote the uptake of technologies which have been successfully embedded as standard of care in these Technology Implementation Projects.
