Commissioningintentions
• Our commissioning intentions are the proposals we develop that shape our contract discussions with organisations that provide healthcare
• It is a complex process with responsibilities ranging from assessing population needs to prioritising health outcomes
What are Commissioning Intentions?
Why are they important?
• They are important as they help us to ensure we are meeting the health needs of our local population
• We don’t have the resources to do everything so have to prioritise how we invest tax payers money
How do we develop them?
• Understanding the health needs of our population
• Understanding existing services and gaps• Talking to local stakeholders at events such
as this• Clinical discussions with provider
organisations about our shared priorities
What have we learnt?
• ‘Co- development’ of intentions works• Draws on expertise from primary and
secondary care, Birmingham City Council, community and voluntary groups and our patients and carers
• All are well placed to identify gaps and potential improvements in care
• Historical ways of working can be improved
