© Fujitsu Services Future trends Standardisation vs. Localisation
© Fujitsu Services Future trends Localisation “Our National Health Service is also a very local health service – and therein lies one of its key strengths. …what works in one place may not necessarily work in another. The local challenge is to shape services to match the characteristics, needs and priorities of the communities they support….” John Reid, Secretary of State for Health Our NHS – Where Next?

© Fujitsu Services Future trends Personalisation vs. Commoditisation
© Fujitsu Services Future trends Comparative clinical outcomes analysis Away from block contracts Towards Payment by Results (PBR) - really payment by activity Through Practice Based Commissioning (PBC) To payment by outcome
© Fujitsu Services Future trends Commoditisation Robust measures of quality Quality comparisons Value-for-money approach to commissioning Personal health choices driven by quality
© Fujitsu Services Future trends Personalised care Away from secondary care organisations’ menu-driven approach Towards primary care organisations, as a proxy for patient-driven care To patient making choices – including out-of-hospital care
© Fujitsu Services National and regional healthcare The enduring functional unit of the NHS is the referral network which surrounds the patient.
© Fujitsu Services Key point summary 1.Standardisation – Consistency of service, transferability of data. 2.Localisation – Services which are responsive to local needs. 3.Interconnection – Care is deliverable in different settings. 4.Fragmentation – Competition amongst providers. 5.Personalisation – Care packages tailored to the individual. 6.Commoditisation – High quality, low cost, high modularity.
