HealthTech aligned to safety, efficiency and cost-effectiveness
Technology should make primary care easier, not more complicated. NovaHS develops digital tools and HealthTech aligned to our three pillars — safety, efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Every tool we build is measured against these principles, so software adds real value to GP practices rather than another system to manage. A live example is NovaSummarise, our clinical record summarisation application — a Class I medical device built to DCB0129 — which powers our Lloyd George digitisation service.
Because our team works inside practices every day, our healthcare software development starts from genuine primary care problems. We know where clinical and administrative time is lost, and we design tools to remove that friction — freeing clinicians and staff to focus on patients.
- Safety first — tools designed to support safe, standardised primary care.
- Efficiency — software that removes friction from clinical and administrative work.
- Cost-effectiveness — technology that delivers value for practices, PCNs and ICBs.
Software shaped by the people who use it
The best primary care HealthTech is built with clinicians, not just for them. Our digital tools combine software development with the clinical and administrative expertise of our multidisciplinary team — clinicians, clinical coders and pharmacists — so each tool is grounded in how primary care really works. That expertise keeps our software practical, safe and genuinely useful.
We are also open to collaboration on new tools. If you have an idea for a digital tool, or a challenge that technology could help solve, NovaHS is glad to explore it with you and shape it around our pillars of safety, efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
- Built with clinical and administrative expertise from a multidisciplinary team.
- Grounded in real primary care workflows, not theory.
- Open to collaboration on new tools that improve NHS primary care.
Who it's for: GP practices, PCNs, Federations and ICBs across England, and technology partners who want to develop or collaborate on HealthTech for primary care with NovaHS.
What partners & teams tell us
"Working with Nova has enabled a reduction in clinical admin time and allowed staff to focus on provision of care."
"The tool was built around how we actually work. It removed friction from admin rather than adding another system to manage."
"You can tell clinicians shaped it. Safe, efficient and genuinely useful — not technology for its own sake."
