National changes from April 2013 resulting fromHealth and Social Care Act 2012
The National Health Service (NHS) is NOT
one big body. Rather it is a collection of
separate organisations, each with their own remits, management
structures, budgets and governance
Key to Understanding Health Services

Commissioners: plan and purchase services based on local need
Providers: take on contracts to deliver ‘commissioned’ services

The Local Authority
Private Companies
