A visual document, developed in presentation software, intended to be read on screen and referenced instead of projected. Nancy Duarte Overview of NHS allocations NHS England and NHS Improvement are currently merging, but this is beyond the scope of this document. As CCG allocations are an NHS England commissioning function, this name persists in these slides. NHS England leads the National Health Service (NHS) in England. We set the priorities and direction of the NHS and encourage and inform the national debate to improve health and care. We want everyone to have greater control of their health and their wellbeing, and to be supported to live longer, healthier lives by high quality health and care services that are compassionate, inclusive and constantly improving. NHS England shares out more than £100 billion in funds and holds organisations to account for spending this money effectively for patients and efficiently for the taxpayer. A lot of the work we do involves the commissioning of health care services in England. We commission the contracts for GPs, pharmacists, and dentists and we support local health services that are led by groups of GPs called Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). CCGs plan and pay for local services such as hospitals and ambulance services. We strongly believe in health and high quality care for all, now and for future generations. We use a statistical formula to make distribution of financial resources fair and objective, so that it more clearly reflects local healthcare needs and hopefully reduces any health inequalities. This updated and expanded summary of our Allocations Technical Documentation details the recent updates in the 2019/20 allocations model. We have used infographics and metaphors to help make some complex ideas easier to digest. We hope you find these slides useful in explaining some of the methods used. The annex includes more complex slides, where we describe some of the ideas in a bit more detail. 3 Contact details Infographics (updated and expanded for CCG allocations 2019/20 onwards) Document Title Fair Shares – a guide to NHS allocations Written and illustrated by Roman Tatarek-Gintowt, Analysis and Insight for Finance With thanks to colleagues in NHS England and NHS Improvement Correspondence address Allocations Team, Quarry House 8E25, Quarry Hill, Leeds LS2 7UE Web address www.england.nhs.uk/allocations/ page where latest version is published We are continually developing both the allocations process and related documentation.

  • Health Related European Funding in North West
    HEALTH RELATED EUROPEAN FUNDING IN NORTH WEST HEALTH RELATED EUROPEAN FUNDING IN THE NORTH WEST Author: Kailash Nagdev NHS North West SHA December 2009 NHS North West, 4 th Floor 3 Piccadilly Place Manchester, M1 3BN Tel : 08450 500194 www.research.northwest.nhs.uk www.northwest.nhs.uk FOREWORD NHS North West has high aspirations for R&D to promote the North West as the place of choice to undertake high quality health research. NHS North West aims to support outstanding individuals to conduct leading-edge research in world-class facilities to improve health outcomes. As a result of the strength of its research capabilities and infrastructure the North West has achieved phenomenal success in attracting funding for health research through national programmes. However, the North West has not experienced such similar high levels of success in relation to attracting EU R&D funding. This report was commissioned to identify areas of strength in the North West in attracting EU R&D funding and to build on these strengths in collaboration with the North West Health Office in Brussels through the development of a robust approach to increase the numbers of successful bids for EU R&D funding from the North West. NHS North West and the North West Health Office in Brussels are committed to implementing the recommendations outlined in this report. We are clear on what we want to achieve and over the coming months we want to work with our stakeholders in academia, the NHS, Local Government, Industry, the Third Sector and not least patients and the public to identify our particular contribution and the contributions of our partners in delivering our aspirations.
