DIDs requirements

Development of the DIDS version 2.0 started with the gathering of requirements from various stakeholders including NHS England, NHS Data Model and Dictionary, care providers and system suppliers.

The list of requirements which were considered is below.  Work then took place to elaborate requirements and consider solutions for implementation to develop DIDS version 2.0.     

DIDS consultation and webinars

We ran consultations through online surveys. We also ran a number of DIDS consultation webinars in 2024 for care providers and system suppliers to explain and discuss the requirements we had gathered for DIDs version 2.0.  

The webinar slides are available to download below.
