Virtual Smartcard is a cloud-based identity and access management solution, providing secure and reliable access for clinicians and staff, on any device, any platform and at any time. Users manage their own smartcards through a self-service platform and reduce the admin for Registration Authorities.
Our user-friendly self-service management platform is empowering over 60,000 users to take charge of their smartcards, significantly reducing the workload on Registration Authorities. This means less waiting time, heightened productivity, and a smooth operational flow.
Our Virtual Smartcard offers the same access as physical smartcards, but with enhanced efficiency and security, and much less admin time. This means the NHS can relieve stress from their current staff members and save on the cost of replacing any RA staff members who have recently left their roles. On average an NHS organisation could make an efficiency saving of 75% by switching to our solution.
It might not always be possible or convenient for staff to gain access to a device with the hardware needed to use a physical smartcard. If a staff member cannot make it into their place of work and instead needs to work from home, not having access to the Spine would mean a large loss in productivity.
In the same way a Registration Authority can issue physical cards with the NHS card management system (CMS). Registration Authorities can utilise our virtual RA manager portal to issue Virtual Smartcards remotely.
