- Supporting the impact assessment process, identifying the likely impact of policy, and evaluative commissioning proposals on patients and existing service provision
- Undertaking stakeholder testing and public consultation to help test, sense check and refine draft products
- Supporting panel members (for example the Specialised Commissioning Clinical Panel) to understand the available evidence of clinical effectiveness and how it has informed policy proposals
- Contributing to the ongoing review and refinement of policy, and evaluative commissioning methodology to support evidence based decision making and prioritisation of available resources
- Providing effective project management leadership and support to ensure the timely delivery of products in line with agreed timescales and commitments to internal and external stakeholders
- Identifying potential new topics for consideration within the forward policy development programme

NHS England leads the NHS in England to deliver high quality care for all. We support NHS organisations to deliver better outcomes for our patients and communities, work to get the best possible value for taxpayers, and drive improvement across the NHS.

Through our seven regional teams, NHS England supports local integrated care systems, made up of public services that provide health and care - NHS organisations, primary care professionals, local councils, social care providers and the community, voluntary and social enterprise sector - to improve the health of the population, improve the quality of care, tackle inequalities and deliver care more efficiently.

From April 2023, NHS England, Health Education England and NHS Digital became one single organisation, putting workforce, data, digital and technology at the heart of our plans to transform the NHS.
