  2. From April 2013, specialised services will become the core responsibility of the NHS Commissioning Board (NHS CB) • Set national priorities, strategic direction, standards and policies • Assurance of Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) for non-direct services • Directly commission services: • Primary Care, Offender Health, Military Health, Specialised ‘Prescribed’ Services • Specialised services will account for over £11.8bn - or 10% - of the entire NHS budget from 2013-14

  3. Ambition of the NHS CB is to help achieve equity and excellence in the provision of specialised care and treatment through ensuring excellent commissioning which will:- • Achievenational consistency in delivery of commissioning functions and minimise duplication • Improve and build on the quality and equity of access to services • Deliver improved outcomes for patients

  13. On rare occasions, providers commissioned to provide specialised services may be unable to achieve key national requirements in full. • In these circumstances, providers may apply for a derogation of service. • Derogation means the temporary delay in meeting key service requirements in full, as described in the service specification, or other mandatory commission requirements. • An agreed derogation supports full implementation over a time limited period according to provider capacity and capability. • If patient safety is considered to be at risk due to phased service implementation then derogation will not be agreed and the continuing commissioning of a specific service within the provider will be reviewed.

  14. The NHS Commissioning Board recognises that there will be applications made by provider trusts and/or clinical teams to the NHS Commissioning Board to commission services which are not in the NHS Commissioning Board’s Annual Commissioning Plan. Such applications will be referred to as “proposed service developments”. • No decision will be made to commission NHS services as part of any proposed service development which is outside the NHS Commissioning Board’s Annual Commissioning Plan until a proposed service development has been assessed, prioritised and a policy decision has been taken as to whether the NHS Commissioning Board’s existing Annual Commissioning Plan should be amended to include the proposed service development. • Any application to amend the NHS Commissioning Board Annual Commissioning Plan to include an in-year service development must be set out in a detailed business plan which describes the proposed policy change, the evidence base to support the policy and sets out the costs of both making the policy change and not making the policy change. The NHS Commissioning Board will require considerable and compelling evidence of both the clinical and cost effectiveness of the proposed service development before agreeing to a change within a financial year
