Simon Stevens new initiative, highlights the need for case-mix adjusted primary care resource management and needs-based, equitable resource allocation.
Anticipating this development, IHS has re-forged a longstanding partnership with Imperial College, London in risk adjustment to build on our partnership with Johns Hopkins ACGs.
Imperial’s experts have led the national research on how case mix adjustment explains the need for and use of resources by GP practices. “This partnership will bring specialist medical statisticians into our teams.
This will place us in a unique position with our iRIS-ACG solution to support and facilitate fair shares budgeting and clinically meaningful resource management in primary care.
Both essential to evidence-based primary care commissioning.”
