Introduction to outcomes based commissioning
The NHS needs to change what and how it commissions to create patient focused integrated services within the resources available.
Commissioners need to buy outcomes for services and not activity from organisation. This is a big change requiring technical knowledge and engagement with providers and communities.
The workshop on 16 April in London, 21 May in Leeds, 4 June in Birmingham and 18 July in London covers the basic considerations for this new approach using experiences and case studies from across the NHS.
