Notice Title
Service continuity for General Practices using Silicon Practice software
Notice Description
Silicon Practice is a supplier of general practice websites and online consultation systems. The company is in financial difficulty and administrators had recommended immediate cessation of software services to their general practice customers. This would have disrupted provision of general practice services to patients and would have had a detrimental effect on patient care. This business case is to cover costs of maintaining services to general practice for two weeks in order to enable a managed wind down and/or hand over of services.
