| Annotation | Priority setting is a pervasive feature of all health care systems. In the National Health service (NHS), priority setting has become more transparent as a result of the separation of purchaser and provider responsibilities. This book shows how priorities were set by one purchasing organisation in the UK, the Southampton and South West Hampshire Health Commission. The subject is reviewed in detail, dealing with the difficult task of allocating resources efficiently across the whole range of health care. |
