A key part of the commissioning cycle is the
monitoring and management of quality and performance of providers. One
of the ways this is done through our contracts with providers is the ‘Quality
Schedule’. This is where we specify the key measures for the
quality of services they provide to our patients.
We continually monitor how our providers are meeting the
standards we set through contracts and formally review this with providers at quarterly intervals throughout the year. Today we held our internal panel
meeting to review Quarter 2 (July – September 2013) for our main
hospital provider.
They provided a wealth of evidence of compliance with this
element of our contract with them and we’ll meet with senior clinicians and
managers from the provider later this month to discuss their successes and
areas for further development.
