The Historic Funding Position…- Funding based on local
agreements
- Rarely linked to outcomes or quality
- Inequities in funding across different organisations and within organisations (across different professions)

The case for tariffs
‘The Government is committed to the principle of tariffs for education and training as the foundation to a transparent funding regime … ‘
www.hee.nhs.ukwww.hee.nhs.uk
The case for tariffs
- Commissioning on quality, not cost
- More certainty for trusts around income
- Arrangements are more transparent
- Fairer distribution of funding across the system
- Easier and quicker to commission clinical placements

Introduction of Tariffs
Transitional tariffs:- Non-medical placements and
undergrad medical placements (April 2013)
- Postgraduate medical tariffs (April 2014)

Future Tariff Design
• There is a need for robust and up to date costs• Future Tariffs will be set based on the
outcome of the Cost Collections from NHS Trusts
• The cost collections are a major undertaking for Trusts, the majority of whom have never submitted costs in this way.
www.hee.nhs.ukwww.hee.nhs.uk
Cost Collections• Initial mid-year cost collection January 2014
– 233 submissions out of 236 Trusts in January– Confidence in the initial data submitted is low – However feedback is that Trusts are now better
placed for the full year collection • Full year cost collection August 2014
– All Trusts submitted in line with the deadline– Data Analysis currently underway– Results to be published November 2014
www.hee.nhs.ukwww.hee.nhs.uk
Role of Medical Education Managers
• Engagement with the process– Recording activity– Identifying activity (and reviewing how activity is recorded
for future collections)– Contributing knowledge and information to feed the
assumptions required in the exercise– Participating in cross function project groups within trusts
to identify relevant training and education costs/ activity.
• Embedding the process
www.hee.nhs.ukwww.hee.nhs.uk
How the data will be used
• The data will underpin work to create tariffs• HEE responsible for Currency Development• DH responsible for pricing
• Currency Development Group• Review the proposed approach for creating ERGs• Review the principles for ERG design• Comment on draft groupings, especially with regard to what is
professionally meaningful for education and training groupings.• Receive our data analysis
www.hee.nhs.ukwww.hee.nhs.uk
Development of Currencies(ERGs: Education Resource Groups)
• Statistical analysis of data will underpin currency design• Establish a multi-professional group to develop
proposals• Wider stakeholder consultation• Possible design principles
• Iso-resource• Educationally and professionally meaningful• Minimum coverage• Quality incentives
