NHS Right Care

The NHS Right Care programme (http://www.rightcare.nhs.uk) is focussed on increasing value – value for patients and value for commissioners. The programme is targeted at clinicians, commissioners and patients and has five workstreams:

•    Population Planning and Programme Budgeting
•     Clinical Networks and Systems of Care
•     Better Value Clinical Practice
•     Shared Decision Making
•     Population Medicine

The right care team is led by Sir Muir Gray, Chief Knowledge Officer of the NHS, DH; Philip DaSilva, National QIPP Lead, Primary & Community Services and Dr Steve Laitner, Lead for Shared Decision Making.

As well as hosting the NHS Atlas of Variation series (the 2011 edition is now available), there is stacks of information around shared decision making, including slidesets, videos and reading lists
