- The Specialised Commissioning Improving Value programme is a national support programme which aims to achieve measurable improvement in patient benefit or outcome whilst achieving a reduction in the cost of specialised services.
- A menu of opportunities document summarises national Improving Value schemes that have been developed in collaboration with Clinical Reference Groups, Programmes of Care and commissioning hubs. The aim of the document is to give an overview of each scheme, outline potential benefits & savings, provide useful tools and information such as case studies to support implementation and contact details for further information.
- The overarching themes are:
- Get Best Value out of Medicines and Pharmacy
- Reduce Avoidable Demand and Meet Demand more Appropriately
- Reduce Unwarranted Variation in Clinical Quality and Efficiency
