Operating loss reduced to £2.4m (H1 2022: (£4.5m)). Ongoing cost containment programme continues to yield results.
Cash position £3.1m (FY23 YE: £4.3m). We remain on track towards our objective of self-sustaining growth and cash flow breakeven in FY24.
Operational Highlights
Awarded five new patient portal development contracts totaling £1.9m with several large Trusts/ICS and ICBs for the Zesty patient portal. In addition to the £1.4m announced in October, a further £538,000 is announced today:
Whittington Health NHS Trust worth £267,000 covering several patient portal projects including the use of Induction’s Form Builder module for wait list validation, enhancing appointment management functionality, and integrating with Whittington’s pre-surgical assessment tool.
Milton Keynes University Hospital worth £271,000 covering several patient portal projects related to reducing wait lists and launching an Induction video consultation from the patient portal.- Induction to be the first NHS
accredited portal to digitize maternity records for expectant mothers ensuring patient records are accessible within Zesty.

One of only two patient portal providers to launch new functionality into the NHS App related to notifications, messages, and forms. This functionality is vital to supporting waitlist validation.
In final stages of engineering work which will enable patients to launch video consultation from within the patient portal, as well as enable clinicians to access a video consultation from their Electronic Medical Record (EMR)
integration of Zesty and Attend Anywhere platforms.
Non-core asset (Switch) sold for material consideration.
Paul Tambeau, CEO of Induction Healthcare, said: “With reports that over 8m patients will be on a waiting list by next year, Induction has a vital role to play in helping NHS Trusts manage their backlog and giving patients more choice in how they access care. We’re well positioned to do this because of the work we’ve done on integrating our platforms and enhancing the features available through the NHS App. Improvement in both gross margin and operating losses also demonstrates the outcome of our cost containment work completed in the last 9 months which remains on track to achieve our goal of being breakeven this year.”
