HSJ Efficiency Award winners announced

The winners of the HSJ Efficiency Awards 2012 were revealed on Tuesday.

The HSJ Efficiency Awards, in association with Health Trust Europe, identify and reward the organisations that have delivered tangible improvements in healthcare efficiency and cost savings, whilst maintaining the highest levels of patient care.

Announcing the winners, HSJ editor Alastair McLellan said: “In this room is the best evidence yet that some NHS organisations and their partners are reconfiguring services and systems in a way that delivers more for less.

“The efficiency revolution - and these awards - is also demonstrating how departments and functions too often given insufficient focus have significant contributions to make.”

Altogether 114 NHS organisations and their partners were shortlisted for the awards, with the eventual winners being announced at the awards evening in London on 25 September.

  • Well done to all the winners. I had a very small peripheral part to play in the Sussex project and know how hard the managers worked to get this completed, so i appreciate how much work went in from all the teams.
    I must remember to point our local politicians to this next time I hear them bad-mouthing NHS management.
