Avoiding the three icebergs that could sink the NHS The NHS should start to use programme budgeting and marginal analysis to help decision-makers gauge the effect of reallocating resources across healthcare services, thus optimising resource allocation...

Fascinating discussion with Clinical Coding, Analytical, Clinical & NHS England colleagues as part of an Options Appraisal Workshop for ICD-11 Implementation.

Heartening to see a great deal of expertise and the breadth of professions of the people invited.
