Quality: saving lives or saving money?

The next stage review aims to put quality at the heart of the NHS. In response to this and the introduction of the Commissioning for Quality and Innovation (CQUIN) payment framework, Dr Foster Intelligence are holding an event to explore how commissioners are working with their providers to drive forward the quality agenda in their primary care trust.

Places at this conference are limited, so please book early to avoid disappointment.

During the summit we will address the following:

• How to drive forward the quality agenda within PCTs
