The best commissioning happens when it’s co-produced – planned and delivered together with local partners and communities. We see our role as one of support, not just direction, bringing people together, sharing what works and helping you build on your strengths.
At the Hub, we’re here to support with the right tools, insights and shared learning needed to make confident, informed commissioning decisions. Our aim is to help you deliver the best possible care for your communities.
Commissioning decisions are rarely made with complete certainty. Evidence may be partial, services may still be maturing, and system pressures rarely pause while assurance catches up. Yet commissioners are still expected to act, prioritise and commit public resources responsibly.
The Provider Selection Regime (PSR) is a set of rules for procuring health care services in England. It lays out flexible regulations for commissioning health services for NHS bodies and local authorities, so they can ensure that all decisions are based on collaboration and the best interest of our patients.
Neighbourhood Health is a cornerstone of the 10–Year Health Plan, aiming to move care closer to home, strengthen community models, and embed digital–first pathways. The NHS Medium–Term Planning Framework (MTPF) provides multi–year discipline to support this ambition.
