Insourced Services to Support the Provision of Healthcare Services (Ref: RM6276)
Background
Insourcing models are one way of tackling the backlog while ensuring you can retain capacity planning in house. Insourcing is a term used to describe a range of medical and clinical services, which are deployed to utilise spare, out-of-hours capacity within a trust, in addition to the trust’s existing provisions, with the intention to bolster service outputs and improve efficiency. Such services are typically provided by medical or clinical providers who can provide the specialist capabilities required to deliver an end-to-end service, including clinical governance and oversight.
The agreement includes the provision of clinical services to support you with meeting waiting time targets and easing pressure by utilising the services of providers on NHS premises, allowing you to retain capacity planning.
