Health Scrutiny Reviews
What are Scrutiny Reviews?
In broad terms, the main aim of Health Scrutiny is to act as a lever to improve the health of local people in its widest sense. It is about looking at the whole health system, not just services provided, commissioned or managed by the NHS.
The Health Overview Panel can establish scrutiny review working groups to investigate local health related issues in depth. Scrutiny review groups look into each issue in detail and produce a final report which includes a set of recommended actions to create improvements in the local health system.
