End-of-contract data extraction
A service ticket can be raised to delete all tenant-based data. At the end of the contract, the data will be securely deleted or destroyed, or if directed by the customer in writing, returned and not retained.
End-of-contract process
At the conclusion of the contract, Health Call ensures a seamless transition for customers. If the only action required is closure of the solution, our team efficiently manages the process, ensuring all data is returned to the client or safely destroyed. This includes transferring any stored information back to the client's designated system or storage platform in compliance with data protection regulations. Included in the price of the contract are comprehensive services tailored to our customer's needs. This encompasses initial implementation of the solution, ongoing technical support and maintenance, regular updates and enhancements to ensure optimal performance and access to our dedicated customer success team for assistance and guidance throughout the contract duration.

- Data Retention Policy
- Bring Your Own Device Policy
- Due Diligence Policy
- Data Protection Policy
- Recruitment Privacy Policy
- Website Privacy Policy

We undertake annual audits to ensure that we continue to meet security standards ISO27001 and CE+ and annual penetration tests are undertaken on all of our platforms, unless requirements differ. Weekly infrastructure/security reviews are undertaken to pick up new threats and/or to ensure any security patches or upgrades are implemented in a timely manner.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
We use internal change management governance, which forms part of our QMS. A Change Control Policy is available upon request, as is demonstrations of how the policy is implemented through the platform. DevOps tooling supports a part of our change and configuration management process. This ensures a secure, yet auditable record of any changes made to the service, technology stack, or code base. Significant changes are reviewed by a Change Management Team, whose purpose is to review any requested changes and assess prioritisation.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
We adhere to the service pack update and patching processes as defined in our ISO27001 information security policy. Patch/release deployment is pre-configured and built into our PaaS code, in order to enable release implementation. This enables us to achieve zero downtime. Patches can therefore be deployed immediately after approval is obtained from the Change Advisory, and Information Security, advisory Boards. This ensures that we can reactively deploy patches where needed.
Protective monitoring type
Supplier-defined controls
Protective monitoring approach
Our PaaS holds built-in security monitoring and alerting tools, which ensure that we can protectively monitor our service. CloudWatch is also utilised, which protects data at rest using encryption. All security incidents are responded to immediately. In the event that a potential compromise has been detected, we would notify a customer, alongside an in-depth risk analysis. Both the results of this analysis, and client direction would determine our action plan.
Incident management type
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
We record and manage incidents per our security incident policy and response procedure, and thus operate pre-defined processes for common events. Incidents can be reported by users via email or telephone. Our support services team will perform root cause analysis on any incidents that occur, with corrective and preventative action plans documented and implemented to prevent or reduce the probability of the incident reoccurring. Following this, Incident Reports are then shared with customers within 24 hours of the incident being reported, via email.

Fighting climate change

Health Call has a Carbon Reduction Plan in place, and we are continually reviewing how our operations align with the Greener NHS Net Zero Supplier Roadmap. FormFinity has the potential to dramatically impact an organisation's carbon emissions. Not only does it digitise printed correspondence, but it can be utilised to remove the need for in-person appointments and the associated travel and consumables.

Covid-19 recovery

FormFinity can be used, as standalone or alongside other Health Call products, to care for patients with long-term conditions from the comfort of their own home, including patients living with long Covid. Health Call are proud to have developed an LFT reporting and vaccine booking solution for NHS Trusts before this functionality was available through the NHS App. Our entire product range compliments one another to bring solutions that aid waiting list validation and intelligently address the backlog of appointments whilst also improving patient experience.

Tackling economic inequality

Health Call was founded on this very principle. We began with an INR solution that is still in use across the North East of England today. The solution provided patients with the option of managing their condition and submitting readings remotely, and one of the primary outcomes of its use was patients no longer needing to take time from work to travel to outpatient clinics. Our values today are still very much aligned with this mission. We would welcome a conversation to understand the socioeconomic landscape within your region, and to discuss how our expertise within this area and our products could be applied uniquely.
