Optum assured partners

Stage 4: Product demonstration

Stage 5: Internal stakeholder review

Throughout the witness test, it’s crucial to verify that the developed product aligns with the provided information, capturing all required functionality. The witness test report will be submitted to our internal Optum team for review. If the solution doesn’t meet the criteria or raises concerns about information governance or clinical safety, our assurance team will guide you through necessary adjustments. In such cases, a subsequent witness test may be required, accompanied by further updates to the surveys. Assurance will only be provided once our team is confident that the criteria have been successfully met.

During the witness test, you must demonstrate your release- ready solution, ensuring it is clinically safe and secure. The witness test will align with the completed product pack, so it’s crucial that the pack is accurate and up-to-date. The demonstration should cover all aspects outlined in the product pack, including how audit logs are maintained and how errors are handled. After the test, our assurance team will assess the solution and provide a witness test report within 5 working days for internal review.
