| Health & social care Make personalised commissioning a reality The provision of social care is shifting its focus from providing a list of services for users to select from, to allowing the end user to have free choice of all potential service providers. Similarly, the NHS is aiming to become more responsive to patients’ needs by devolving procurement decisions down to GP level and encouraging a broader choice of service providers. Throughout the health and social care sector, therefore, a method of purchasing personalised care from a large number of potential providers is needed. SProc.Net provides that facility and much more besides. The system allows for a clear definition of the needs of each individual end user (including such details as the type of service, the times requested, the desired outcomes etc.) and then uses 5 different quality metrics to present the best quality offers along with indicative prices. Full visibility of the services being offered and their associated costs are available to allow a well-informed decision to be made, putting the end user in control of their own service provision. SProc.Net is designed to facilitate modern methods of care provision, incorporating features to enable recent developments such as payments from individual Personal Budgets as well as by Direct Payments from a council. By optimising the personalised commissioning process, SProc.Net drives the quality of care provision up while, thanks to the increased number of potential suppliers, drives your costs down. |
