Details

The plan groups DH’s activity into six priority areas:

  • better health; better care; better value: these 3 relate directly to DH’s enduring purpose and capture the key business priorities for the department for this year to April 2013
  • successful change, delivering the transition to the new system: picks up the work DH does and its accountability for making this happen
  • working with our partners: builds on what DH does now and recognises that in the new system the department will be working differently *transforming DH itself: DH’s journey to develop its capability

The plan is also built around how the department will support the Secretary of State to deliver his 5 strategic objectives:

  • a patient-led NHS
  • delivering better health outcomes
  • a more autonomous and accountable NHS
  • improved public health
  • reforming long-term and social care.
