New quality kite mark for health information

PIF partners with cross sector organisations to develop new quality mark for trustworthy health information
Patient Information Forum, 18 September 2019
  • In August 2018, NHS England announced The Information Standard kite mark, membership and assessment scheme was to cease. 
  • PIF has consulted with its members and there was overwhelming support for an easily recognisable kitemark to help people recognise information that is evidence-based, accurate and up to date. A steering committee of PIF member organisations has helped draft the criteria that information producers must meet to achieve the quality mark. A pilot will test the practicality of the draft criteria and the validation process.
