The NHS Accelerated Access Collaborative (AAC) made a Phase 4 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Award to Healthy.io under Round 1 of the AI Award programme. As part of the award process, the AAC commissioned an independent service evaluation and a randomised controlled trial, supported by Leicester Clinical Trials Unit. The results of these will be published as part of the Award process by September 2024. All 20 Primary Care Networks in Oxfordshire are taking part in the Healthy.io AI Award programme pilot and 2760 patients have been asked if they would like to take part.

The Department does not hold a copy of the contract between Buckinghamshire Oxfordshire and Berkshire West Integrated Care Board and Healthy.io. Our understanding is that this contract was for a pilot project and has not been continued. During the pilot, 38 general practices in Oxfordshire signed up to Healthy.io and submitted 6473 patients, of which 6053 were eligible.
