Migrating from N3 to HSCN 

The Health and Social Care Network (HSCN) is a new data network for health and social care organisations. Replacing N3, it provides the underlying network arrangements to help integrate and transform health and social care services by enabling them to access and share information more reliably, flexibly and efficiently. 

Health and care providers will be able to obtain network connectivity from multiple suppliers in a competitive marketplace and in collaboration with other health and social care organisations. We are one of those suppliers. It is expected that the marketplace will extend to the private sector, and to services such as opticians, pharmacies and even to other public sector services such as ambulances, the police and even as far as education. 

We can help with your migration plan to HSCN 

Becoming an approved HSCN provider involves a rigorous assessment process, conducted by NHS digital. We have achieved Stage 3 compliance, making us a trusted supplier of HSCN connection to numerous organisations across the UK’s public sector. HSCN connection can be procured through on RM6116 Network Services 3 as well as a specialist Technology HSCN Access Services Direct Purchasing System (DPS). 

We have already worked with 31 CCGs as well as 90 hospitals and Health Trusts throughout the UK. Our experience of the health and social care environment and engagement with NHS Digital, local government and a broad spectrum of end users translates into a secure and efficient service provider that can be trusted to help you.
