The state of public finances
is likely to require at least £20bn in efficiency savings from the
healthcare sector; the NHS therefore faces a number of challenges
to deliver improved productivity and quality and ensure
compliance.
Capita Symonds has a long
established history of working with the NHS. We acquired Inventures, a market leading healthcare
consultancy with a long NHS heritage, in February 2010.
Through unrivalled intellectual
knowledge of the NHS and leading work on high profile programmes
and projects, we are uniquely positioned to partner with
clients as they respond to pressures of the Quality, Innovation,
Productivity and Prevention (QIPP) agenda, and the constraints of
the current fiscal challenge. We provide innovative solutions that
deliver cash releasing savings, efficiency savings and reduce
expenditure enabling investments to be made in the frontline to
improve patient experience whilst reducing the cost of service
delivery.
We call our approach to the NHS QIPP
agenda "healthcare without walls". This reflects our
philosophy that the Health Service cannot 'build its way' out of
the downturn and that our focus must be about engaging with
clinicians, staff and patients to change the way they work and use
buildings and, in many cases, to making buildings
redundant.
Capita Symonds' health team is delivering
significant results:
- Up to 25% reduction of buildings
utilised
- Remodelling instead of expensive LIFT or PFI
options
- Using surplus assets to reinvest in improving
patient pathway and experience
- Efficiency savings of up to 35% from
improving back office functions
