Practice based commissioning


Practice based commissioning (PBC) is about engaging practices and other primary care professionals in the commissioning of services for patients. This clinically driven model of commissioning devolves responsibility along with practice based budgets to frontline clinicians who can, through effective service redesign, develop innovative services that meet local need.
