NHS innovation fund to cover medicines use

摘要

NHS England has launched a new fund which aims to transform the way that innovations within specialised services are identified, tested and adopted. The specialised services commissioning innovation fund, which opens for applications in September 2013 with a pot of ￡50m this year, aims to speed up the adoption of innovations within the prescribed specialised services commissioned directly by NHS England. Innovations that will be considered for evaluation include service models, pathways, team approaches, technologies, products, diagnostics, devices and medicines with the potential or promise of delivering high-impact change.
