Changes in commissioning health care services
The new changes to England’s health care structure (Health & Social Care Act 2012) will put clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) in charge of commissioning healthcare services. This will also mean that other non-NHS organisations (such as third sector organisations) will be able to apply for funding to provide health care services. This creates new and innovative opportunities for NHS trusts to work in collaboration with charities and other third sector organisations.
