Leading the significant organisational change required to achieve SLM

True service line reporting can only be achieved if true visibility of non-pay usage is accurately assigned to the service line, and costs are fully reflective of the actual cost being incurred, including wastage, and inefficient buying

Service-line Management (SLM) is not solely about service-line reporting (SLR). Optimising the benefits of SLM requires whole organisation engagement and a shift in approach. Whilst engaging clinicians is a key element, the executive and senior management teams also need to adapt their approach. This webinar will focus on the cultural change aspects of SLM, focusing on examples of how organisations have been working to achieve this.

Date and time: 25 April 16:30-17:3

Speaker: Ian Renwick, CEO of Gateshead NHS Foundation Trust

Chair: Kate Hall, Policy Advisor from Monitor
