This briefing provides pharmacy contractors and LPCs with a summary of the National Information Board’s (NIB) work to support the development of high quality health apps which can be used by health and care professionals and citizens.

In the future the recommendation to a patient to use a high quality app may be as common an occurrence in pharmacies as provision of verbal advice on lifestyle or a patient’s medicines, so this NIB work has the potential to make a significant impact on the future work of pharmacy teams.
