Commissioning innovative whole pathways of care, including specialist outreach, and moving care closer to home to deliver all required services, may involve developing shared incentives that improve outcomes and costs across the pathway.
Example pathways:
Hillingdon hospital example pathway
New asthma clinical pathway – Hounslow
Children and young people asthma pathway – South East London
South East Coast Clinical Network asthma and bronchiolitis pathway
Paediatric high volume conditions care pathways for asthma and bronchiolitis
Asthma – Better for Less – Yorkshire and the Humber
Treatment and management guidelines are available in the primary and community care and the hospital care sections.
