This tool is designed to help local areas identify potential improvements to service delivery, and enable them to understand what the quality and financial impacts of those improvements may be.

The tool provides case studies and analysis of a number of interventions that could be applied in a local health economy to achieve improved clinical outcomes and financial performance.

The model is made up of five connected modules and shows how CCGs could achieve financial balance over the strategic period covered.

• A methodology guide
  explains the principles and methodology behind the project and the model
• An urban model module
  introduces the interventions selected and the results based on an urban CCG
• A suburban model module
  introduces the interventions selected and the results based on a suburban CCG
• A rural model module
  introduces the interventions selected and the results based on a rural CCG
• A further information guide
  provides information on the case studies used for the interventions
