Portfolio in development

Nelford’s clinical service portfolio is still being finalised and is not yet published on this site. The condition hub structure below is fully built and ready to list real services the moment each one is clinically approved.

Individual clinical review, every time

  • Consultation channels

    Service-appropriate consultation channels

    Depending on the approved service, assessment may use an online questionnaire, secure message, phone or video.

  • Clinical assessment

    Individual, not automatic

    Suitability is decided case by case. A clinician may assess symptoms and confirm a diagnosis within an approved service.

A CQC written clarification has been submitted and a response is pending. No CQC registration is claimed. Insurance and pharmacy fulfilment arrangements are also in progress.
