                "description": "NHS National Services Scotland wishes to procure a Patient/Carer Online Feedback Service under a Single Supplier Contract on behalf of all NHS Boards in Scotland. This Contract can be used by any Board at that Board's choice. We are looking for an off the shelf solution that will require a minimum of development from a company which has experience in deploying, interfacing and maintaining such systems. The service provider should also be able to provide an effective moderation service, training and support for staff to implement the system across NHS Scotland, and regular reporting to NHS Boards and the Scottish Government.. Although anonymous, the site should record where the person is based and the service they feedback about. The feedback will then be sent by the Service Provider to the appropriate healthcare service manager or clinician for a response or responses, which will be published online alongside the original post.",
