July 2021: Commissioning for Better Value

Commissioning for Better Value (CBV) is an outcomes‑based approach which shifts our focus from outputs (volume) to outcomes (value). It is one of the statewide programs supporting NSW Health's commitment to value based healthcare.

Commissioning for Better Value Strategy 2021‑24The Commissioning for Better Value Strategy 2021‑24, released in June 2021, provides guidance for implementing CBV across services that support patient care.

The strategy is supported by four objectives:

  • drive awareness and understanding of CBV in alignment with value based healthcare
  • support partnerships and networks to build CBV capability
  • embed value based healthcare in CBV across the system
  • monitor implementation and evaluate the impact of CBV.
