I've seen inside NHS IT too (currently work in the NHS). It's patchy, but there are some talented people. Given the push for digital - and cost-saving at the moment, I can well imagine a GDS-style core group being started that would 'productise' this for Trusts - and even offer support, the way the Accenture crew does reasonably well for Microsoft products etc
Yeh, I could imagine GDS (government digital services) having the capability, but not NHS digital whose remit this would likely fall under. They just don't have the resources or experience.
