NHS England, Monitor and the TDA issue joint guidance to the NHS

NHS England, Monitor and the TDA issue joint guidance to the NHS NHS England, Monitor and the NHS Trust Development Authority will work together to co-produce one set of guidance for NHS commissioners, NHS trusts and foundation trusts. All three will collectively build on the recently published Five Year Forward View; galvanising the need for a joined-up approach to secure sustainable high quality care across the health and care system.

The 2015/16 planning round provides an important opportunity to establish a foundation for longer term transformation, based on the Five Year Forward View, and to refresh and ensure sustained progress on last year’s two-year operational plans.
