The role and design of NHS England
2
About us• NHS England:
• was established as a special health authority on 31 October 2011 and as an executive non-departmental public body on 1 October 2012 under the name of the NHS Commissioning Board (NHS CB);
• plays a key role in the Government’s vision to modernise the NHS and secure the best possible outcomes for patients.

The role of NHS EnglandPatient-focused, clinically-led organisation that has the culture, style and leadership to truly improve outcomes for patients
• To allocate resources to clinical commissioning groups (CCGs)
• To support CCGs to commission services on behalf of their patients (according to evidence-based quality standards)
• To have direct responsibility for commissioning services:
• primary care;
• military and prison health services;
• high secure psychiatric services; and
• specialised services.

The role of NHS England• To uphold the principles and values of the NHS Constitution
“The NHS belongs to the people. It is there to improve our health and wellbeing, supporting us to keep mentally and physically well, to get better when we are ill and, when we cannot fully recover, to stay as well as we can to the end of our lives. It works at the limits of science – bringing the highest levels of human knowledge and skill to save lives and improve health. It touches our lives at times of basic human need, when care and compassion are what matter most.”

Aims of NHS England• Improved health outcomes as defined by the NHS Outcomes
Framework
• People’s rights under the NHS Constitution are met
• NHS bodies operate within resource limits
These will enable:
• patients and the public to have more choice and control over their care and services;
• clinicians to have greater freedom to innovate to shape services around the needs and choices of patients; and
• the promotion of equality and the reduction of inequality in access to healthcare.

• We intend to ensure that everything that NHS England does:• contributes to improving outcomes;• has been clinically-led;• promotes equality and supports a reduction in health
inequalities;• is informed by the needs, views and wishes of patients and the
public; and• promotes innovation and puts research into practice.

Key facts and figures• The overall running costs budget (£527m) represents a reduction
of almost half on costs and staff, compared to the current costs of functions transferring to the Board
• Around 75% of the budget will be deployed locally:• reflects that the majority of NHS England’s functions will be
carried out locally, with the vast majority people based up and down the country in local area teams and regions; and
• provides strong local presence to best manage the transition.
• Eight directorates, with nearly half of the senior posts filled by clinical staff and a range of clinical professions represented throughout, plus extensive clinical advice and input from clinical networks and clinical senates
