<p>NHS England is responsible for commissioning specialised neurology services and
started, last autumn, a national Specialised Adult Neuroscience Transformation Programme
which includes specialised neurology services. The aim is to identify how best to
commission services that deliver the right care at the right place and right time
and reduce inequalities in access to specialist and specialised care when required.</p><p>The
programme will focus on specialised neurology and how to organise services such that
patients receive access to specialist care and input at key points in the pathway.
However, while specialised services for people living with neurological conditions
are commissioned by NHS England the bulk of care is funded locally by clinical commissioning
groups. The programme will therefore work with wider policy and services across the
National Health Service to deliver holistic improvements in care. The aim is to deliver
seamless care for people living with neurological conditions, wherever they live.</p><p>
