## Description

In 2016/17 NHS England set out our approach to ensure that prescribed specialised services are commissioned from the most capable providers through a rolling Strategic Service Review Programme with priorities published in commissioning intentions\.From service reviews and from locally led change through sustainability and transformation plans, we expect there to be more networks of specialist providers and re-shaping supply models and contracting approaches to integrate care around patients\.Service reviews will also provide opportunity for providers to propose sustainable solutions in line with clinically developed requirements\. Service review implementation will also enable new payment approaches in order to incentivise improvement in care quality and patient experience\.
