System Reform

Four main elements to reform - Patricia Hewitt:

1. More choice and a much stronger voice for patients – Patient Choice, Choose and Book, CaPLNHS, PBC

2. More diverse providers, with more freedom to innovate and challenge poor performance – FTs, Independent Sector, Care Outside of Hospital

3. Money following the patients, rewarding the best and most efficient and giving the others a real incentive to improve PBR, more investment, CaPLNHS savings, LES

4. A framework of regulation and decision-making that guarantees quality, fairness, equity and value for money.

Healthcare Commission, Operating Framework, Monitor, CFH
