What is an Operational Delivery Network?
An Operational Delivery Network (ODN) is a way to bring different parties (clinicians, providers, commissioners and patients) together to realise change across a complex system of care in order to improve care, quality and outcomes for the benefit of patients and is recognised as a successful way of achieving strategic change in the NHS.
NHS England Southwest Specialised Commissioning set the strategic direction for ODNs and specify key commissioning objectives for networks; who are established to deliver whole system work programmes which are based on the NHS Outcomes Framework.
An ODN serves three main functions;
- Increasing operational effectiveness and consistency by addressing unwarranted variation in practice and health inequalities
- Improving care quality, patient outcomes, prevention, shared learning and decision making
- Managing patient flows ensuring equitable access for all and care as close to home as possible
