Annotation	Policy and practice documents are increasingly adopting a focus on outcomes. This article seeks to clarify what is meant by the term "outcome", the outcomes that have been highlighted in key policy documents from the Department of Health (DH) and the Scottish Executive, and the extent to which they reflect the outcomes prioritised by service users. The discussion draws on the early stages of a Department of Health (DH) funded project that explores the effectiveness of health and social care partnerships from the perspectives of service users.
