New NHS online hospital to focus on eyes, menopause and prostates
The new NHS online hospital service being launched in England next year will initially focus on menopause, prostate and eye conditions.
The NHS has selected nine different conditions in total for the service which will be available through the NHS app in 2027.
The service, which was first announced in September, will allow patients to have assessments, check-ups and follow-up appointments online and will have its own dedicated team of doctors.
