Remove NHS branded services on NHS domains

[frankieroberto]

I think we can move all these to https://www.service-catalogue.nhs.uk/ now and declare those as out of scope?

I only added them during the pandemic as part of a project to collect together all the COVID-19 services.

whaddya think @paulrobertlloyd @carolinefinucane864?

The service catalogue only lists a subset of NHS services though, right? For example, where would NHS 111 sit?

However, broadly speaking, it does feel perhaps a little odd that NHS services are included. Maybe only be those covered by the GOV.UK proposition should be included:

The GOV.UK proposition applies to the following channels and domains.

The website, including:

www.gov.uk - the publishing platform for government
service.gov.uk - for government services
campaign.gov.uk - for government campaigns
api.gov.uk - for government APIs
blog.gov.uk - for government blogs
data.gov.uk - for publishing government data sets, for example government spending
independent.gov.uk - for independent inquiries set up by the government, for example the Independent Commission for Aid Impact

The app, including:

the forthcoming GOV.UK app
app notifications

That’s still quite broad, though. Perhaps only services on the first two domains (and those that should or one day will be on those domains)?

@paulrobertlloyd I think we could add NHS 111 and some of the other NHS-branded services to https://www.service-catalogue.nhs.uk - although I’ll defer to @carolinefinucane864 on that.

I think my/our original intention was to keep the GOVUK one to only those within the GOVUK proposition (or which should be within it), but it’s a very hard line to draw.

Me and @timpaul had a slide deck at one point of services in the uncanny valley of kind-of-GOVUK-branded. 🙃

The bottom of the by domain list contains a whole bunch of services not on a *.service.gov.uk domain, some of which are GOVUK branded, and some of which aren’t (but maybe should be). 🤷

Sorry, I can't see the NHS branded services you're referring to. But I would say that any product or digital service that supports prevention services should be listed in this catalogue, no matter if they're NHS or DHSC or another NHS partner.

@carolinefinucane864 there’s 6 NHS England services on the x-govuk list, although all but 2 have been retired: https://govuk-digital-services.herokuapp.com/organisation/nhs-england

There’s also this one from NHS BSA: https://govuk-digital-services.herokuapp.com/service/buy-prescription-prepayment-certificate
