Health Planning & Investment
• Consideration of comprehensive range of health improving interventions:– Promotion of health– Prevention of disease– Screening– Diagnosis– Treatment/management– Rehabilitation
• Need - Demand - Supply
![Page 7: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Policy Context
• Policy context:– WCC competence 6 – Prioritise investment according to local needs,
service requirements, & the values of the NHS.– WCC competence 11 – Make sound financial investments to ensure
sustainable development & value for money. – Care Quality Commission: PCT Commissioning standards – Domain 2:
Clinical & cost effectiveness
• Combined perspective – health planning & health economics

"World Class Commissioning“ (2008)
• "Investment decisions will be made in an informed and considered way, ensuring that improvements are delivered
within available resources" (DH, 2007a)
• PCTs will be able to: "Prioritise investment by having a thorough understanding of the needs of different sections of the local population ...
• Make confident choices about the services that they want to be delivered, and acknowledge the impact that these choices may have on current services and providers..."
(DH, 2007a)
![Page 9: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

NHS Confederation Guidance to PCTs (2008)
• The 'primacy of prioritisation must be a fundamental principle of public sector resource allocation'.
• A 'whole system' approach must be taken which takes account of and is applicable to all health service delivery in a given area
• Avoid unintended consequences and opportunity costs associated with narrower priority setting or decision making processes

Economics
Greek: oikonomos, "one who manages a household" ..oikos, "house"
and nemein, "to manage"

Group Discussion - Household Investment Decision-making
• Think of 2 or 3 recent decisions you have taken to make a substantial purchase in your household
• Discuss how you came to the decision to make the purchase & how you chose the particular product
![Page 15: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Health Economics
• A framework for the systematic consideration of costs & benefits across society in support of priority setting/ investment decision-making
![Page 16: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Finance & economics
FINANCE/MONEY = measure & store of value, means of exchange (usually reflected in price)
ECONOMICS = what is produced; how resources used up in producing it; how these products are exchanged and by whom
MONEY is only a currency!
![Page 17: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

What you already know about economics (but might have been totally unaware of !)
• Humans are quite ‘rational’ economic beings (most of the time) ..
• We all satisfy our own needs rationally… ‘maximise our own personal ‘utility’ subject to a resource constraint’
• We want to maximise gain and minimise pain!• But it’s not just about self-interest! eg. altruistic or
communal gifts• Why should society be any different? – it’s only the sum of
its parts
![Page 18: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Health Economics Perspective 1
• Acceptance of resource/budget limitations• Scope – societal vs public sectors vs NHS• Long-run timeframe• Cost vs price• Opportunity cost – all investment choices & uses result in other
lost opportunities• Demand = willingness & ability to pay at a given price
![Page 19: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Health Economics Perspective 2
• 2 concepts of efficiency:– Technical: Doing things well/at least cost for a given output
at a given quality– Allocative: Doing the right things to maximise benefit from
available resources• Marginal analysis – measurement of costs/savings & benefits
additional to the current baseline• Equity – consideration of the spread/allocation of fair/ethical
costs & benefits across society
![Page 20: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

3. Costs & Benefits
Weighing it up
![Page 21: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

DM/HK © 2010
Group Discussion – Resources & Benefits
• Briefly discuss the ‘resources’ & ‘benefits’ we would need to weigh-up in introducing a ‘hospital at home’ service
![Page 23: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Economic approach
• Weighing up the costs and the benefits of alternative courses of action (Drummond, 1987)
• Costs (full resources) to whom?• Benefits…to whom? Concern with equity.• Divergence of personal and social costs• Wider scope of benefits in public health
![Page 24: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Production Costs & prices
• Fixed cost – constant over a period of time regardless of workload
• Semi-fixed/stepped cost – constant within given production limits (e.g. additional staff)
• Variable cost – vary in proportion to workload• Sunk cost – investment that cannot be re-invested
• Price = cost + profit/surplus
![Page 25: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Costs
• Total cost• Unit cost = 1 unit/patient• Average cost = total cost/N• Marginal cost = cost of producing one additional unit• Cost curves• Opportunity cost = foregone opportunity to produce the next
best alternative use of resources
![Page 26: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Economies of scale
• Constant returns to scale • Diseconomies and economies of scale
![Page 27: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Costs
• Direct cost – e.g. health care staff time & consumables• Indirect costs – e.g. catering• Overhead costs – e.g. management, heating• Intangible costs – e.g. pain, inconvenience
![Page 28: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Health Benefits
• Survival/death• Treatment• Cure• Cases/infections prevented• Length of life• Quality of life• Function
![Page 29: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010

4. Efficiency & Equity
Doing the right things, well, & for all the right people
![Page 31: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Technical efficiency - Inputs and outputs
• Maximise output subject to budget/cost limit or minimum• Minimise costs subject to a fixed or maximum level of output• No resources wasted in production of a given product at an
accepted quality
![Page 32: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Productivity
• Measure of technical/productive efficiency• Amount of output per unit input in producing a given
product e.g:– Factory hours to make a product– Number of products produced by a factory per day– Patients treated per hour/per clinic
![Page 33: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Allocative efficiency
• Allocative efficiency is where organisation is producing a combination of goods that maximises the overall level of satisfaction or welfare of the population of interest
• Global efficiency – allocative efficiency across all productive activities in society as whole e.g. education, health, welfare benefits, industry, etc
• Where no further reallocation of resources at the margins of production could improve social welfare function (=∑individual welfare functions) – i.e. social welfare is maximised
![Page 34: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Pareto optimality
• The theoretical condition as a result of perfect global efficiency, where it is impossible to make one person better off without making someone else in society correspondingly worse off is called a Pareto optimal allocation of resources– How do we know when NHS organisation(eg. PCT) is
allocatively efficient?
– What type of market conditions are likely to lead to the
allocative efficiency?
![Page 35: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Ethics, equity, & economics
• Ethics - theories of social justice/fairness• Equity - treatment according to need/access/ demand/use• Economics – equity (distribution/shares of benefit) vs efficiency
(total benefit)
![Page 36: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Common equity dimensions
• Age• Gender• Sexuality• Geography• Socio-economic status• Ethnicity• Religion• Disease/condition• Severity/prognosis
![Page 37: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Equity not necessarily = equality
• Equity concerned with ‘fairness' ‘justice’ (i.e.ethical theories)• May not necessarily be identical to equality (e.g.minimum
standards of care, ‘positive’ discrimination) due to taking account of need
• However, equity usually synonymous with equality of something (e.g. right to equal opportunity to access)
![Page 38: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
‘Definitions’ of equity
• Equal ‘chance’ of treatment - lottery• Equal expenditure per capita - geography• Equal expenditure/resources for equal ‘need’ (i.e. weighted
capitation e.g.‘premature’ mortality)• Equal access (opportunity to use) for equal need (e.g. equal
waiting time per ‘condition’) & physical/geographic access• Equal utilisation for equal need (e.g. equal length of stay
per ‘condition’)• Equal treatment rates for equal need• Equal ‘health’
![Page 39: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Equity : Efficiency Trade-off
• Explicit equity weighting remains controversial unless considering ‘total social welfare’ rather than economic efficiency alone
• Access to primary/secondary/tertiary care (e.g. GP vs NICU)• NICE willingness to pay Cost per QALY for treatments
prolonging life in terminal cancer conditions• Targeted out-reach initiatives for ‘hard to reach’ groups
![Page 40: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

5. Economic Evaluation
![Page 41: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Key Methods of Economic Evaluation
• Cost Consequence Analysis• Cost-Minimisation Analysis• Cost Effectiveness Analysis (CEA)• Cost-Utility Analysis (CUA)• Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA)• Modelling
![Page 42: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Length & quality of life 1
• Length of life– Mortality (numbers, rates, SMRs)– Life expectancy – Healthy life-years (eg. QALYs)– Disability-free life years (eg. DALYs)
![Page 43: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Length & quality of life 2
• Measures of (Health-related) Quality of life:– Numerous QoL measures (generic & disease specific)– SF-36– Nottingham Health Profile– Symptom Checklist– Hospital anxiety and depression scale
![Page 44: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYS)
Adjusts data on quantity of life years saved to reflect a valuation of the quality of those years.
If healthy: QoL = 1.0
If dead QoL = 0
e.g. 5yrs survival gain at ½ QoL = 5 X 0.5 = 2.5 QALYs
![Page 45: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYS)
• Measure of burden of disease adjusted for lost function/productivity (WHO)
• World Bank, Global Burden of Disease (1996)• Years of life lost due to premature death + years lived with
disability (mortality + morbidity)• Better reflection of burden due to chronic disease rather than
due to common causes of death
![Page 46: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Issues in Economic Evaluation 1
• Taken up by research community, good journals, etc• Used nationally - e.g. NICE• Still ignored by local decision-makers• Suspicion from clinicians• Resistance from public
![Page 47: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Issues in Economic Evaluation 2
• Lack of good cost data to use• May not capture all the benefit dimensions required by

Steps in costing
1. Defining the perspective/viewpoint
2. Identification of costs to include in the appraisal
3. Measurement of the resources used (how much of each item?)
4. Valuation of the resources used
(what does each item cost?)

Identifying costs
• A full identification of important and relevant costs should be provided and any omissions justified– Trade-off between time and effort involved in collection and potential
impact on results– What are the key cost drivers likely to be?
• Include free costs e.g.volunteer and patients’ leisure time and donated clinic space
• Not all costs that are identified have to be measured and valued

Measure how much of each item used?
• Number of medical visits, tablets consumed, hours of staff time…
Sources include:• Health insurance accounting systems• Computerised hospital and primary care records• Reports from health professionals, patients and carers• Standards (guidelines, best practice) - medical notes often assumed most accurate

What does each item cost?
• Use existing market prices where appropriate
• Unit costs from local sources of national statistics:- NHS reference costs and PbR tariff- BNF drug costs- PSSRU health and social care services

Practical Approaches to Resource Allocation
1. Population capitation formulae2. Programme budgeting & marginal analysis3. Priority setting/investment decision-making
![Page 65: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
NHS Capitation Funding
• Formula driven funding (based on PCT population)
• Weighted capitation (age, deprivation etc) (revised 2003)
• Gets PCTs onto a level playing field wrt. population need (in theory!)
• ‘PCTs make decisions on investing these ‘cash’ resources
![Page 66: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
The underlying principle
• The objectives of the weighted capitation formula are to determine PCTs' target shares of available resources to enable them to commission similar levels of healthcare for populations with similar healthcare need, and to reduce avoidable health inequalities (eg. cancer treatment)
See: Resource allocation: weightedcapitation formula (sixth edition) DH 2008
![Page 67: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Four elements are used to set PCTs’ actual allocations
a) PCT populations adjusted for:- (i) their age distribution(ii) additional need over and above that relating to age (ie. deprivation)(iii) unavoidable geographical variations in the cost of providing services (themarket forces factor (MFF)
b) Recurrent baselines – which represent the actual current allocation which PCTs receive
c) Distances from targets (DFTs) – which are the differences between (a) and (b)
d) Pace of change policy – which determines the level of increase which all PCTsget to deliver on national and local priorities and the level of extra resources tounder target PCTs to move them closer to their weighted capitation targets.
NB. PCTs do not receive their target allocation immediately but are moved to it over a number of years.

Potential resistance to economic decision making!Williams and Bryan (2007) identify the following reasons why policy makers do
not use economic studies:• Transparency: policy makers simply do not understand the study or
methods used;• Validity: policy makers do not believe the study outcomes;• Relevance: the study does not provide information relevant to decision-
making context, such as the impact on local budgets;• Clarity: the presentational style is inaccessible (see 1);• Comparability: variations in methods make comparing
Interventions difficult;• Affordability: policy makers have insufficient budget to commission
economic studies;• Objectivity: policy makers question the independence of those undertaking
the work;• Philosophy: policy makers reject the principles underlying
economic evaluationWilliams I, Bryan S (2007) ‘Cost-effectiveness analysis and formulary decision making in

Experience of decommissioning
A recent survey has shown that the total value of services decommissioned across the 60 PCTs that responded was £14m - a tiny fraction of the £70bn PCTs spend each year.
The majority of Trusts (40 out of 60) said they had not decommissioned anything!

Questions to ask
• Do you know where the NHS money in your local health economy goes at present, by age group, disease group, prevention spend or clinical specialty?
• Do you have adequate data on patient outcomes and satisfaction, (ie what good that investment of resources is doing, in these areas?)
• Do you have any evidence (or even a gut feeling!) of where those same resources could be moved from one area of activity to another to generate greater health gain?
• Can you list, in priority order, where new investment should go first in order to do the greatest good for the client group or population you look after?
• Is it reasonable to try to engage your local clinicians, commissioners and public in discussions about doing things differently without such information?

If your answer to any of these questions was “No”, then Programme Budgeting and Marginal Analysis
(PBMA) may be a technique that can help!

Definitions
• Programme budgeting is a retrospective appraisal of resource allocation broken down into meaningful programmes, with a view to tracking future resource allocation in those same programmes
• Marginal analysis is the appraisal of added benefits and added costs when new investment is proposed (or lost benefits and lower costs when disinvestment is proposed), in an incremental way

It is rocket science!• Its first major application was
not in health care but in the US Department of Defence in the 1960s.
• Cost accounting tool that could display, over time, the deployment of resources that supported specific military objectives, like wars overseas, the support of NATO or defence of the homeland, rather than the conventional budgetary approach of tanks, missiles or diesel fuel.
• Allocation of new resources, or shifts between budgets, could be judged on their relative contribution to the main objectives – a much more meaningful way of making decisions.

Right for health?
• Outcome based funding Instead of looking at the investment in a particular hospital or drug budget, the focus becomes “reducing heart disease death rates”, “improving indicators of child health”, “reducing the burden on family carers of patients with senile dementia”, etc
• The focus is on objectives - maximising health gain by deploying resources to best effect
![Page 82: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)

Marginal Analysis
• What would you do with 10 % more on your annual budget that you can’t do now? ‘WISH LIST’
• What would you cease to do if you had to make do with 10% less? ‘HIT LIST’
• So those things on your HIT LIST have a lower MB at current levels of activity than those things on your WISH LIST
• If you can’t think of anything with more benefit or prefer not to give up anything currently to carry on what you’re doing then you are probably allocatively efficient!

PBMA: eight steps
1. Choose a set of meaningful programmes to work with – perhaps age groups, disease groups or clinical directorate groups
2. Identify current activity and expenditure in those programmes (programme budgeting). Try to account for the total budget, to avoid the risk of omissions but double-counting
3. Be creative - consider improvements and linkages in pathways and patterns of care, within and between these programmes
4. Weigh up extra costs and increased benefits (or decreased benefits and reduced costs) of the improvements you have thought of (marginal analysis)
5. Consult widely - there may be options, trade-offs and value judgements to explain
6. Decide - and make that decision public7. Make the change happen! This is the essence of management8. Evaluate progress - check that the anticipated costs, savings and
outcomes materialised in practice, then repeat the exercise

Multi Criteria Analysis (MCA)
• Point scoring system that takes account of multiple criteria:– Criteria are locally determined– Weighted to give precedence to those of most relevance– Allows alternative interventions/services/programmes to be scored
against these criteria
• Divide cost by point score to give ‘cost-effectiveness’• Compile a ranking to guide decision making

Defining the Criteria
• Derived from objectives of service• Generic not specific
• “Improves rehabilitation and after-care” rather than “employs more district nurses”
• Should be identifiable and measurable • E.g. life-years gained, effectiveness estimate
• Need to be “mutually preference independent”• Able to assign preferences against one criterion
independently of preferences against other criteria

Seven key organisational challenges to PBMA & priority setting
• Time (having enough of it!); • Good data; • Disinvestment incentives; • Identifiable programme budgets; • Outcome measurement; • Public involvement;• Organisational behaviour.
Mitton and Donaldson (2004)
![Page 113: DM/HK © 2010 Health Services Planning in the World Class Commissioning Environment Maximising Patient Care Within Available Resources Author: David Murray.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013101/56649da65503460f94a92641/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
DM/HK © 2010
Organisational behaviour
• Formal v. informal process going on?• ‘Transactions costs' to participants are critical to success of
PBMA (Jan, 2000)• Individuals will only engage with PBMA if there are
opportunities to expand/protect their own budgets and/or restrict the expansionary tactics of rival claimants!

Priority setting - summary
• Prioritisation by order of cost-effectiveness ensures best value for money from public funds
• Weighted benefit score captures all dimensions of ‘benefit’ in a single index
• Combining score with resource use data allows a crude cost-effectiveness ratio to be calculated
