Abstract

Practice-based Commissioning (PBC) has been designed by the Department of Health as a simple toolkit that can be used to determine budgets at practice level and is a fair method of sharing resources throughout the NHS. It means that money can follow the patient, enabling them to obtain the best resources in order to address their individual health needs. These resources must be shown to be clinically-effective and cost-effective and will be selected on the basis of good outcomes and can be privately managed or organized within the NHS system. This means that PBC will offer the potential to redesign services while insisting that these services are evidence-based and regularly audited.
