CheckUp Health System Achieves ISO 27001 Certification
We are proud to announce that The Flame Lily Healthcare creator of CheckUp Health software recently achieved ISO 27001:2013 (ISO 27001) certification, one of the most globally recognised information security standards.
ISO 27001 is an information security management system, which outlines a framework of policies and procedures to mitigate the risk of a security breach. Covering more than just software development and cyber security, the certification provides a model for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving an ISMS, and covers all aspects of an organisation’s information risk management process. The certification aligns with the NHS Digital compliance requirements for technology providers.
The certification has been granted following an audit from NQA UKAS accredited confirming that the requirements for certification were met for “Information security management for the provision of nursing and health resources and support and development of digital health software including online and video consultation software.”
Achieving ISO 27001 confirms our ISMS is aligned with international information security best practices and we have the right processes and procedures in place to handle a wide range of information across our systems. Protecting all types of information and data provided by our stakeholders, including clients, investors/shareholders, employees, partners, government (and regulatory agencies), and suppliers are our highest priority.
In 2021, CheckUp Health Software became an approved solution on the NHS Digital First online consultation and video consultation framework. The framework establishes a single route for commissioners to buy nationally assured online consultation and video consultation products. The benefits of the framework are that it provides greater assurance of products on behalf of customers, centralised processes in place for the management of any serious incidents that arise in relation to framework products (aligned with GPIT Futures, more opportunities for aligning product development – for example, to promote interoperability with foundation systems and greater transparency on pricing.
The certification is a demonstration of The Flame Lily Healthcare’s commitment to investment in the safe technology, data management standards and processes that protect those we serve. With our CheckUp Health software solution, we will continue in compliance with the ISO 27001 standards and strive to become a reliable long-term partner for NHS, GP practices and other organisations.

It is the gold standard in terms of security and shows that The Flame Lily through the systems it develops has the correct measures in place to protect customer data and we have established a great foundation model for implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving an ISMS framework for our day to day operations and development. I want to thank all the team involved in the application process and the ongoing work to ensure we continue to uphold the standard.”
