Sleepio application usage: FOI release

Information requested

In September 2021, NHS Scotland commissioned Big Health’s Sleepio as the provider of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia.

I would like information regarding

1. The number of GPs in Scotland, since 2021, that have been trained by Big Health in the use of Sleepio. I request that this information is given for each year from 2021.
2. The number of patients in Scotland who, since 2021 have accessed Sleepio. I request that this information is given for each year from 2021.
3. The number of patients in Scotland who, since 2021, have achieved a clinically relevant improvement in their insomnia after using Sleepio. I request that this information is given for each year from 2021.
4. The actual cost per patient incurred by NHS Scotland to provide Sleepio, I request that this information is given for each year from 2021.

Response

The information we hold on your request is detailed in the Annex. While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the Scottish Government does not have some of the information you have requested. The contract for Sleepio is managed by NHS National Services Scotland but I have provided extracts from relevant documents on Scottish Government systems. The documents do not require full release as the majority of the information they hold is out of scope of this request.
