Our work

Spending NHS money wisely 2

The NHS is facing a challenging time. There is rising local demand for NHS services and the cost and availability of treatments continues to increase, which means it is all the more essential that we spend our limited resources in the most effective way. BHR CCGs need to make £55 million of local savings in the 2017/18 financial year.

From September – November 2017, we ran phase two of the Spending NHS money wisely consultation asking people what they thought about proposals to stop funding or restrict access to a number of treatments, medicines and procedures. Follow this link to download a copy of the Spending NHS money wisely 2 – summary of decisions reached.

To find out more, read the Spending NHS money wisely 2 consultation document or the easy read version.

The engagement on this closed on Wednesday 15 November 2017. Thank you to everyone who took the time to read our proposals and give us their feedback.
