This book was released on 2007-02-20 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the Government's response to the Health Committee's report, (HCP 73-I, session 2006-07 - NHS Deficits - ISBN 9780215031747), which highlighted the role of: the funding formula; poor central management; and poor local management in the National Health Service as being the root cause of deficit problems, alongside large inherited debts. The Committee also notes that the reductions in workforce budget and training and education have been the main contribution to reducing deficits, and see that as having adverse effects on staff morale and development, and this could affect the quality of the workforce. The Government accepts that many of the recommendations resonate with the Department of Health's objectives on financial management in the NHS, and accepts that some of areas, as highlighted by the Committee, such as poor local management has contributed to the NHS deficit, also that higher standards in financial management is required, with the Department appointing a Financial Controller, who can challenge the financial performance of individual organisations. The NHS will receive an estimated funding of £84.4 billion in the 2006-07 period, and it is the Government's view this has led to a service transformation and improved patient care. The Government does not accept that ring-fencing budgets and micro-management of the NHS will produce better financial health. The Secretary of State for Health has set out three clear financial objectives, which is reported on a quarterly basis in the NHS finance reports: (i) deliver net financial balance across the NHS; (ii) see improvement in financial performance to all organizations reporting a deficit in 2005-06; (iii) achieve a recurrent monthly rate balance across as many NHS organizations as possible by 31st March 2007. The latest quarterly report is available on the Department of Health website: http://www.dh.gov.uk/assetRoot/04/14/31/57/04143157.pdf.

This book was released on 2006-06-07 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines in detail the 2004-05 revenue situation of NHS organisations and considers key financial management and reporting issues facing the NHS both currently and in the future. Jointly prepared by the National Audit Office and the Audit Commission, the report incorporates the findings of their audit work on the NHS summarised accounts, the consolidated account of NHS foundation trusts, the Department of Health's resource account and the accounts of individual NHS organisations, as well as the unaudited NHS revenue out-turn for 2005-06 as reported by the Department of Health and Monitor. Findings include that in 2004-05, the Department reported a deficit across the NHS as a whole for the first time since 1999-2000, with an aggregate overspend for all NHS bodies of £251.2 million, with 171 out of 615 bodies recording a deficit or overspend, with 68 out of 259 NHS trusts failing to break even, and with 90 out of 303 primary care trusts exceeding their revenue resource limits.

Book Synopsis Financial management in the NHS by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts
Download or read book Financial management in the NHS written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-03-20 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spending on the NHS is the fastest growing area of public expenditure, with a budget for 2004-05 of £69.7 billion, rising to £76.4 billion in 2005-06 and £92.6 billion in 2007-08. Despite the increased resources, the NHS reported an overall deficit of £251 million (including Foundation Trusts) in 2004-05, the first time since 1999-2000 that the NHS as a whole had overspent. In 2005-06, the overall deficit increased to £570 million, with a rise in both the number of NHS organisations (Strategic Health Authorities, Primary Care Trusts, NHS Trusts and NHS Foundation Trusts) reporting a deficit and the proportion of those bodies reporting a deficit. Following on from a report (HC 1059-I, session 2005-06; ISBN 9780102938159) published in June 2006, jointly prepared by the National Audit Office and the Audit Commission, the Committee's report examines three main issues: the factors that led to the deficits, the impact on the organisations involved, and the steps taken to recover the deficits. Amongst its findings, the Committee concludes that there are a number of reasons why NHS bodies are in deficit, with most organisations in deficit tending to have had a deficit the previous year. Bodies already in deficit looking to turn their financial position around can be disadvantaged as they are expected to recover that deficit in the next financial period. The NHS has been under significant financial pressure to meet the costs of national pay initiatives which the Department of Health had not fully costed, and as some NHS bodies have coped better than others in managing these cost pressures, this indicates that the standard of financial management expertise varies across the NHS, as does the level of clinical engagement in financial matters.

This book was released on 2007-03-22 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Staffing costs account for 70 per cent of NHS funding and the effectiveness of its workforce in large part determines the overall effectiveness of the health service. Workforce planning is the key means for the NHS to understand and anticipate the impact of demographic, technological and policy trends on future service requirements. However, workforce planning in also a challenging and complex issue, in light of social and technological changes, as well as the lengthy timescale involved in training staff (at least three years for most health professions and up to twenty years for some senior doctors). The Committee's report examines the effectiveness of current workforce planning activities, including clinical and managerial staff, particularly in the light of reported deficits in NHS organisations, and how it should be done in the future, including the following issues: workforce developments since 1999, the impact of the European Work Time Directive and increasing international competition for staff, retention and recruitment issues, examples of good practice, how to ensure flexibility in system arrangements, and whether planning should be centralised or decentralised.

Book Synopsis Sleep Disorders and Sleep Deprivation by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Sleep Disorders and Sleep Deprivation written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-10-13 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical practice related to sleep problems and sleep disorders has been expanding rapidly in the last few years, but scientific research is not keeping pace. Sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless legs syndrome are three examples of very common disorders for which we have little biological information. This new book cuts across a variety of medical disciplines such as neurology, pulmonology, pediatrics, internal medicine, psychiatry, psychology, otolaryngology, and nursing, as well as other medical practices with an interest in the management of sleep pathology. This area of research is not limited to very young and old patientsâ€"sleep disorders reach across all ages and ethnicities. Sleep Disorders and Sleep Deprivation presents a structured analysis that explores the following: Improving awareness among the general public and health care professionals. Increasing investment in interdisciplinary somnology and sleep medicine research training and mentoring activities. Validating and developing new and existing technologies for diagnosis and treatment. This book will be of interest to those looking to learn more about the enormous public health burden of sleep disorders and sleep deprivation and the strikingly limited capacity of the health care enterprise to identify and treat the majority of individuals suffering from sleep problems.
Book Synopsis Securing the future financial sustainability of the NHS by : Great Britain: National Audit Office
Download or read book Securing the future financial sustainability of the NHS written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-07-05 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although in 2011-12 there was a surplus of £2.1 billion across the NHS as a whole, there is also some financial distress, particularly in some hospital trusts. In the long term, achieving financially sustainable healthcare is likely to mean changes to how and where people access services, and some local commissioners are already consulting on and developing plans to do this. Currently, some organisations have relied on additional financial support from within the NHS. 10 NHS trusts, 21 NHS foundation trusts, and three Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) have reported a combined deficit of £356 million. There are four foundation trusts and 17 NHS trusts which between 2006-07 and 2011-12 needed injections of working capital from the Department of Health totalling £1 billion. The Department anticipates that NHS trusts and NHS foundation trusts are likely to need around £300 million more public dividend capital in 2012-13. 51 per cent of PCTs reported concern about the financial sustainability of their healthcare providers. Previously, PCTs and Strategic Health Authorities (SHAs) have been able to support otherwise weak providers. It is not yet clear whether clinical commissioning groups and the NHS Commissioning Board will agree to provide financial support to providers in this way. The NAO concludes that it is hard to see how continuing to give financial support to organisations in difficulty will be a sustainable way of reconciling growing demand for healthcare with the size of efficiency gains required within the NHS

Book Synopsis 2012-13 update on indicators of the financial sustainability in the NHS by : Great Britain: National Audit Office
Download or read book 2012-13 update on indicators of the financial sustainability in the NHS written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This update finds that there was a surplus of £2.1 billion across the NHS as a whole in 2012-13, matching that in 2011-12. The financial performance of NHS trusts and foundation trusts should be considered in the context of a period of little to zero growth in funding for NHS services over the last two years and during a period of significant structural change across the NHS. Measured by the total surplus or deficit of hospital trusts, financial performance for the NHS appears stronger in 2012-13 than it did in 2011-12. However, there are signs of increasing pressure. As last year, there was a substantial gap between the trusts with the largest surpluses and those with the largest deficits. When primary care trusts (PCTs) and strategic health authorities are also included, there is a similar variation between local health economies. NHS trusts in difficulty rely on cash support from the Department of Health or non-recurrent local revenue support from strategic health authorities and primary care trusts but this is not a sustainable way of reconciling growing demand with the scale of efficiency gains required within the NHS. At the end of 2012-13, there were still 100 NHS trusts that had not achieved foundation trust status. The risk that NHS trusts will not maintain their planned trajectory to foundation trust status increased substantially in 2012-13. This is a period of major transition for the NHS, as clinical commissioning groups take over from strategic health authorities and PCTs the responsibility for commissioning health services.
Download or read book A Guide to the NHS written by Tony White and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-07-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To maximise the effectiveness of their work, NHS employees need a clear understanding of the structures and systems of the organisation in which they work. However, this information can be widely spread, hard to access and difficult to gain a working overview of, and the pace of changes and initiatives can seem almost dizzying. This book draws together a clear picture of the modern NHS, from funding and governance to reports, inquiries and overarching legislation. The book is clear and easy to understand and crucially includes full references to provide a one-stop point of access to the most detailed and up-to-date information available. This book is essential reading for workers in the NHS at all levels, including managers, administrators and clinical professionals. It is vital reading for managers and staff at commercial companies working with the NHS. It will also be of interest to campaigners, patient interest groups, researchers and journalists with an interest in the NHS. Specialty registrars and consultants can also find the information from the book, and much more, in The Doctor's Handbook Parts 1 & 2, by the same author. 'Rather than long narrative histories or complex explanations, the author signposts readers to sources of further information, making this book the quick guide so many of us need' - from the Foreword by Sir Ian Carruthers

Book excerpt: What is the relationship between politics and health policy in the UK? How are the interests of the medical profession, civil society and the state weighed and balanced in the making of health policy? Health Policy and Politics offers a sophisticated critical analysis of policy-making in the National Health Service. The team of contributors comprises established academics who have been actively involved in both research and policy-making in this field. They examine the 'macro' level of policy-making at governmental level, and then consider professional institutional relationships and struggles, and interpersonal decision-making and power relations within small organizations and departments. Unique in the variety of perspectives and topics covered, the volume will be required reading for those teaching and studying on a range of courses in health, social care and public policy, and for health professionals within the NHS.
