With Sustainability and Transformation Partnerships (STPs) beginning to deliver their work and NHS England publishing its ‘Next steps on the Five-Year Forward View’ document, this seminar was a timely opportunity to discuss the next steps for commissioning NHS services in England.
Delegates assessed the impact of population-based thinking in commissioning, with priorities for Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) collaborating with other health and social care organisations as part of the STP process, as well as the steps taken to broaden the scope of commissioning services in the community as part of a national rollout of primary care co-commissioning in England.
Further sessions looked at the increasing importance of value-based commissioning, benchmarking of CCG performance, financial challenges, and the priorities for improving patient involvement and engagement.
