Take part: National survey on the use of external support for commissioning
The King's Fund is carrying out a national survey on the subject of PCTs' use of external support for commissioning. The research is aimed at informing and influencing the World Class Commissioning policy by developing an understanding of the national picture of commissioners’ developmental needs. The King's Fund are inviting all people working in PCTs, SHAs or PBC with knowledge of this area to give information on their experiences. The survey is a follow-up to a similar survey conducted in January 2009. The information collected will be used to inform a King's Fund publication to be released in Spring 2010. Your responses will be reported only in a non-attributable format. The survey should take 5 minutes to complete.
