Code of conduct for Payment by Results (originally published 26th January – applicable from 1st April 2008)
The purpose of the Code of Conduct for Payment by Results (PbR) is to establish core principles, with some ground rules for organisational behaviour, and expectations as to how the system should operate, and to minimise disputes, as well as guide the resolution of them. PbR introduces a degree of transparency in NHS financial flows that is almost unprecedented. The new system challenges organisations to manage successfully in a dynamic environment and creates incentives for increasing productivity and making efficient use of resources. The Secretary of State requires compliance with this Code by all NHS Bodies operating PbR, including health authorities, NHS trusts and primary care trusts (PCTs).
