In September 2025, we announced an “online hospital”, NHS Online, which will give people on certain pathways the choice of getting the specialist care they need from their home. The first patients will be able to use the service from 2027. NHS England is developing the online hospital for England but ministers proactively welcome discussions on expanding the capabilities further with the devolved administrations.
