  • Scottish Health Service Costs
    Scottish Health Service Costs Year ended 31st March, 2001 i Blank Page SCOTTISH HEALTH SERVICE COSTS 2000/01 FOREWORD Introduction Scottish Health Service Costs provides financial and related activity information in sets of published tables. Most of the information relates to individual hospitals. An analysis of healthcare commissioned, practitioner services costs and community services costs is also included for each health board area. Divisional costs and Ambulance Service costs are included for the Common Services Agency. Costs of the Scottish Breast Screening Programme are included for each administrative area. The information may be used by managers at all levels as an aid to decision making, planning and control. It also provides a set of indicators of performance for comparison purposes. The Costs Book information may identify some problems and highlight questions to be asked: however, it will not provide answers by itself. These can only be found by looking at more detailed information in, for example, local information systems and also by considering the particular circumstances which pertain at the location. Source of Information The information contained in this publication is derived mainly from the financial and statistical information prepared as part of the annual accounts cycle of the Scottish Health Service and is unaudited. The annual accounts of health boards for 1992/93 were completely revised to bring them more closely into line with standard commercial accounts. Further minor changes have been made subsequently. The annual accounts of health boards and Scottish Financial Returns (SFRs) are prepared using common accounting principles as described in the Scottish Accounting Manual. The annual accounts of NHS trusts are prepared in accordance with the NHS Trusts Manual for Accounts.
