The HSJ Efficiency Awards have opened for entries. Enter now and prove you are at the forefront of improving efficiency without compromising on quality.

The health service has to deliver £20bn of efficiency savings by 2015.  Trusts are being tasked with delivering more for less, with the focus firmly on maintaining quality and reducing costs through efficiency savings.

The inaugural HSJ Efficiency Awards aim to promote organisations that demonstrate strategies and initiatives that have tangibly improved efficiency and cost savings, while maintaining the highest levels of patient care and staff morale. 

These awards are free and quick and simple to enter. Go to www.hsjefficiency.com to view all categories and criteria and to begin the entry process.

The deadline is 27 May 2011

The awards are open to NHS trusts and partner organisations, departments or individuals. Both clinical and non-clinical entries are eligible. Prove you are at the forefront of improving efficiency without compromising on quality.
