If you've got an idea for a new way to deliver health care, the UK's National Health Service has just the program for you.

The third year of the NHS Clinical Entrepreneur Program is now open, with applications due Oct.

29, reports the Scotsman.

The program is open to innovators in the health care field who have "early stage ideas welcome provided they have been 'given careful consideration,'" according to a press release from InnoScot Health, the Scottish government's health body.

The program runs from early 2019 to early 2025 and is open to "all NHS Scotland workers who aspire to positive transformation through creative solutions, while allowing them to discover the innovative startup world of healthcare," says InnoScot Health's head of project management.

To apply, innovators need to provide a one-minute video pitch and two letters of support from "professional contacts."
