Assuric

Problem

Struggling healthcare systems need safe, beneficial technology – yet compliance remains one of the biggest barriers to deployment and adoption.

For innovators, the challenge is speed, cost, and complexity. A major UK survey of healthtech businesses found that “regulatory approval is their biggest challenge”, and that today’s landscape results in excessive timelines and costs. In practice, teams must navigate overlapping requirements across clinical safety, data protection, cybersecurity, and AI/medical device regulation, with manual workflows and evidence fragmented across spreadsheets, documents, and disconnected stakeholders.

For NHS organisations, the challenge is governance and assurance at scale. CIOs, CCIOs, Clinical Safety Officers, and Information Governance leads must assure, risk-assess, and oversee hundreds of tools, often without clear visibility or a single reliable record. A recent national cross-sectional study found that, in a typical NHS trust, three out of four tools influencing patient care do not demonstrate compliance with minimum legal or clinical safety requirements.

Patient safety and data security are non-negotiable in healthcare – so compliance and assurance must be streamlined and scalable.

Assuric addresses this by standardising, centralising, and automating compliance and assurance, reducing duplication and manual work, improving evidence sharing between suppliers, auditors, and healthcare organisations, and enabling faster, safer, more cost-effective deployment.

Solution

Assuric centralises clinical safety, information governance, cybersecurity and regulatory compliance, governance, and assurance into one system. Instead of juggling spreadsheets and disconnected tools, teams run automated end-to-end workflows in a single platform.

For healthtech companies, Assuric maps and automates overlapping frameworks including: DCB0129, NHS DTAC, DSPT, GDPR, ISO 27001, CQC, SaMD, Quality Management (ISO9001, ISO13485) and many more.

Specialised workflows, smart document and evidence control, and AI-assisted modules for policies, risk, incidents, quality and people management, streamline governance and generate audit-ready evidence. This reduces duplication, shortens assurance cycles, and scales from early-stage startups to our enterprise customers including Accurx, DrDoctor, and Accenture.

For NHS organisations, Assuric provides a centralised digital health assurance, governance, and risk management system. New systems can be efficiently assured and risk assessed, and all deployed systems can be monitored with clear oversight,

Assuric also makes it easy for uptodate evidence to be shared between all key stakeholder: manufacturers, auditors, and deploying healthcare organisations.

Assuric replaces fragmented, manual processes with a single, structured compliance system for both NHS organisations and healthtech companies, enabling consistent, high-quality compliance, governance, and assurance at scale.

Impact

• Used by 70+ health technology companies and NHS healthcare organisations and counting.
• Accurx is now able to both update their existing clinical safety documentation and disseminate the updates to key NHS stakeholders in half the time it previously took.
• Tandem Health achieved DTAC compliance in as little as two weeks using Assuric, compared to typical timelines of around six months.
• LLR ICB completed DCB0160 risk assessment and assurance of an AI triage tool across the entire region in a third of the time it would take using previous methods.
• One NHS deployment reported time savings of 20-30 hours per clinical safety case, enabling faster deployment of procured tools to patients.
• A reduction in cost of 4x to innovators who were previously relying on external consultancy support by replacing one-off compliance projects with ongoing, in-platform management.
• Supported 50+ organisations to complete Cyber Essentials certification, penetration testing, and ISO 27001 audits.
