Overview
NHS England is consulting on proposed changes to the way in which stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic radiotherapy services are commissioned.
Why We Are Consulting
The changes proposed to the way in which SRS/SRT services are commissioned in England involve changes to where services are provided, in order to improve equity of access across the country. This represents a significant change to the way in which services are currently delivered. We therefore wish to seek the views of patients, patient groups, carers, providers, clinicians, commissioners and others, to ensure that any changes implemented offer equitable access to high quality services which are effective, efficient and offer value for money to the NHS, while improving patient outcomes
The proposals and consultation survey are outlined here: https://www.engage.england.nhs.uk/surve ... for-change
Public consultation is inviting responses until 26th January 2015.
