A new aligned methodology developed for consistent NHS savings calculation and reporting.

Conclusion
NHSE, NHS Supply Chain and stakeholders including NHS trusts have developed a new way to calculate savings which will be aligned with a savings methodology it has rolled out across the whole of commercial in the NHS. NHSE told us that this method will mean that trusts are all going to be looking at their savings, calculating their savings and inputting them into the system consistently.36 Balancing cost with good outcomes for patients
