“Assuric has been fantastic in helping us quickly and safely navigate regulatory compliance in the UK. From completing Cybersecurity requirements to DSPT, DCB0129, and DTAC, the team was supportive, extremely knowledgeable, and the platform made everything quick and straightforward. A separate regulatory company we consulted at the beginning even remarked on how quickly we achieved compliance!”

Frequently asked questions

Get in touch if we haven't answered your question below, we are always happy to help!

DCB0160 is a mandatory UK clinical risk management standard that organisations deploying digital health technologies and health IT systems must comply with.

DCB0129 and DCB0160 are overlapping clinical safety standards. DCB0129 applies to manufacturers or suppliers of digital health technologies or health IT systems. DCB0160 applies to the NHS organisations implementing them.

A Clinical Safety Officer (CSO) is a clinician, currently registered with a professional body, who is appropriately trained in clinical safety. In order to become compliant with DCB0160, you must have a nominated individual to act as your CSO. They can be internal or external - we provide expert external CSOs as required.

A Clinical Safety Officer must: Be a suitably qualified and experienced clinician; Hold a current registration with an appropriate professional body relevant to their training and experience; Be knowledgeable in risk management and its application to clinical domains; Make sure that the processes defined by the clinical risk management process are followed. We work with external CSOs who are experienced and confident using our platform to ensure you are compliant as quickly as possible.

DCB0160 expects you to run a clinical risk management process and keep a record of it for each health IT system you deploy. The key documents are a clinical risk management plan, a hazard log and a clinical safety case report, signed off by your Clinical Safety Officer. Assuric has templates for each of these, so you never start from a blank page.

Your supplier does its own clinical safety work under DCB0129 and should share its clinical safety case with you. Your DCB0160 work then looks at the risks of using that system in your own setting. Assuric lets you request and keep track of supplier documentation, including DCB0129 clinical safety cases, alongside your own hazard log.

Yes. You can see what is complete, in progress and not started across every safety task, with owners against each one.

Hazards, causes and controls drafted from your own product documentation, with AI assistance throughout the platform for faster progress.

Built by NHS doctors, certified clinical safety officers, technology experts and software as a medical device regulatory experts.
