How To Get Better Value Healthcare provides an understanding of the concept of healthcare value and how it can be increased, and is written primarily for people who pay for or manage health services. The focus for action is on the top ten questions about value:How much money should we spend on healthcare? Is the money allocated forthe infrastructure that supports clinical care at a level which will maximise value?Have we distributed the money for clinical care to different parts of the countryby a method that recognises both variation in need and maximises value for thewhole population? Has money been distributed to different patient groups bydecision-making that is not only equitable but also maximises value for the whole population? Are all the interventions offered likely to confer a good balance of benefit and harm, at an affordable cost, for this group of patients? Are the patients most likely to benefi t from the interventions, and least likely to be harmed by them, clearly defi ned? Is effectiveness being maximised? Are the risks of care being minimised? Can costs be reduced further without increasing harm or reducingbenefit? Could each patient’s experience be improved?
