Workshop: Developing Benefits Frameworks
The key to delivering benefits across a whole health community is to ensure that each project, each initiative is understood in context.
This is what is meant in World Class Commissioning terms by the whole stream of "assessing needs", "Review Current" and "Decide priorities" (WCC was presented in 2008).
All too often, projects and initiatives are sparked off in isolation. This is simply human nature - it is much more difficult to think about everything at once than to come up with an idea, create a business case, and then implement it.
Benefits Frameworks workshops consists of a series of three workshops which bring together all of the main stakeholders to
agree the priorities for a particular area of work (I'm thinking whole community priorities, such as caring for the elderly, long-term conditions, which may encompass a whole series of existing services and new ideas)
understand what benefits (what adds value) and outcomes (what the community will look like, and what service delivery will look like) need to be in place, and by when
identify gaps in the existing services, and prioritise ways to fill those gaps. Identify areas where resources could be redeployed
define the benefits in a way that all agree makes sense and means something
put the existing services and new initiatives/projects into context and define a way of measuring them
confirm a joint way forwards with agreed shared outcomes and benefits, and recognition of each individual organisation or team's benefits and outcomes
Although this is presented as a series of three workshops, it has been delivered in different formats for different numbers of people and with shorter timescales

It's easy to assume that all of our decisions are purely rational, but they rarely if ever are rational. And they always have consequences for others, usually consequences that we think we could not have predicted.
The Ten Commandments apply just as firmly in each aspect of our daily life as they apply to the whole of our lives. I'm a management consultant, and on this page I explain how the first five of the Ten Commandments apply to management consulting and professional services.
Most healthcare providers, in UK the same as everywhere else, get paid for each activity they do. If someone needs care, they get paid. If someone is well, they don’t. So there isn’t much incentive (for the healthcare provider) to keep people well, even though it is much better for the person, much better for the nation, and much lower cost. Minney.org Ltd is working with one CCG to generate enthusiasm and involvement, and the results are fairly successful….
