Wellola, a leader in digital patient-centric self-management solutions, and Org, a trusted implementation and managed services partner, have joined forces to provide a unique, high-impact digital healthcare solution tailored for the NHS and private healthcare providers.
This partnership leverages Wellola’s Portasana® platform—a secure, configurable, and proven patient engagement and pathway management solution—with Org’s expertise in healthcare strategy, operational transformation, and professional advisory services.
By bringing together Wellola’s robust patient engagement technology and Org’s deep expertise in change management, implementation, and managed support services, the partnership is set to position itself as the UK leader in patient management and engagement, establishing a new benchmark for healthcare digitalisation.
Additionally, the collaboration will support NHS and private healthcare providers through a scalable and sustainable partnership model. By leveraging this joint expertise, Trusts will be able to capitalise on new NHS funding opportunities, ensuring they have the right technology and methodology in place to drive impactful adoption and digital transformation.
Unlocking Value and Supporting NHS Strategic Priorities
With NHS funding of approximately £20 million for Community and Mental Health Trusts to commission Patient Engagement Portals (PEPs) expected to be deployed at the start of the 2025/2026 NHS financial year, healthcare providers should act now to explore how Portasana® can support their strategic objectives. Wellola and Org are offering tailored consultations to help organisations assess their needs, align with NHS funding criteria, and deploy patient engagement solutions effectively. This creates a timely opportunity for healthcare providers to invest in solutions that directly support key NHS objectives:
- Reducing Referral to Treatment (RTT) waiting times to 18 weeks.
- Delivering cashable savings through operational efficiencies.
- Scaling remote monitoring solutions, a core NHS funding priority for 2025/2026—aligning seamlessly with Wellola’s Portasana® capabilities.
- Enhancing patient self-management by integrating with the NHS App and future Wayfinder strategy, which prioritises ‘advice and guidance’ features to support ‘waiting well’ initiatives.
“With NHS funding for digital patient engagement solutions imminent, now is the time for Trusts to invest in technology that improves efficiency and enhances patient experience,” said Sonia Neary, CEO of Wellola. “Portasana® is already embedded within NHS digital frameworks, supporting waiting list management, pre-appointment engagement, and remote monitoring—all of which align with current funding priorities. We are delighted to partner with Org to support our clients and prospects to secure the best value from the technologies we deploy for them”.
