The NHS Evaluations Panel
The NHS Evaluations Panel help to meet the challenge of commissioning high quality research relevant to NHS needs. This panel considers the need for scientific evaluations of specific initiatives and innovations arising from developments in the NHS. Some evaluations are identified and initiated by the programme, and some originate from NHS organisations such as strategic health authorities, the NHS Institute, individual NHS trusts, primary care trusts and commissioning bodies.
How the NHS Evaluations panel works
The role of a NHS Evaluations Panel member
The NHS Evaluations Panel member's role comprises two main functions:- To refine open commissioning briefs to be advertised to the researcher community
- To assess applications received for NHS need and importance
The NHS Evaluations Panel will work closely with the Programme Executive Group (PEG), which is chaired by the Programme Director and includes the chairs of all three advisory panels.
