This book was released on 2005-06-24 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This joint report was prepared by the National Audit Office and the Audit Commission, and contains the findings from the NAO's audit of the NHS summarized accounts and the Audit Commission's appointed auditors' work on the 2003-04 accounts of individual NHS organizations. The report outlines the financial issues facing individual NHS organizations, with an overview of the effects of these issues at national level and how this will affect the national health economy. In 2003-04 the NHS spent a total of £63 billion, with expenditure costs in the NHS rising by 7.3 per cent each year. This will increase the costs to £76 billion for the 2005-06, and £93 billion for 2007-08 periods. Alongside this increasing expenditure, the Government has set out various reform plans, including the establishment of the NHS Foundation Trusts, new staffing contracts, the development of the information technology infrastructure, and the way hospitals are funded. In the Summary of the financial performance for 2003-04 period, the number of bodies failing to achieve a financial balance had increased, along with an increase in the number of bodies with significant financial deficits. In all, 106 NHS bodies failed to achieve an in-year financial balance, and 14% of the Primary Care Trusts failed to keep expenditure within their resource limit, also a small number of NHS bodies are struggling to manage large deficits. The report advocates four key themes for the improvement of financial management: the role of the Board - who should display better oversight and improve their financial acumen; forecasting - NHS bodies should continually test whether cost savings programmes are realistic, and take account more effectively for risk factors in their financial planning, as well as set realistic budgets at the beginning of the year; earlier preparation of accounts - improvements in financial reporting, and the provision of financial information throughout the year should closely reflect the standard and range of information required in the annual accounts; transparency - that boards, managers, stakeholders would benefit from clarity in the way the accounts are organized, and that the amount of financial support received by the trusts should be clearly stated. With the introduction of Payment by Results and the use of independent healthcare providers the income received by NHS Trusts is no longer certain. So overall improvements in their financial forecasting and modeling, with NHS Trusts in particular developing their commercial financial skills, would be beneficial especially if they intend to become foundation trusts.

Download or read book Is Work Good for Your Health and Well being written by Gordon Waddell and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2006-09-06 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing employment and supporting people into work are key elements of the Government's public health and welfare reform agendas. This independent review, commissioned by the Department for Work and Pensions, examines scientific evidence on the health benefits of work, focusing on adults of working age and the common health problems that account for two-thirds of sickness absence and long-term incapacity. The study finds that there is a strong evidence base showing that work is generally good for physical and mental health and well-being, taking into account the nature and quality of work and its social context, and that worklessness is associated with poorer physical and mental health. Work can be therapeutic and can reverse the adverse health effects of unemployment, in relation to healthy people of working age, for many disabled people, for most people with common health problems and for social security beneficiaries.
