Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Health Policy Analysis
  • Public Health Administration

Background:

  • The National Health Service (NHS) is undergoing significant reforms, including the separation of funding from service provision and changes in community care.
  • Planning teams, established post-1974, have been crucial for coordinated care planning for priority groups.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To update previous findings on the structure and function of health care planning teams within the NHS.
  • To assess the impact of emerging reforms on the planning and provision of services for priority groups.
