Today’s World
Rapid health and medical advance- Many of the interventions/practices are challenged continuously:
- The Case against science:

The Case Against Science
Richard Horton, The Lancet, 2015;385:1380 (April11)
“The Case Against Science is straightforward: much of the
scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply not true”
Today’s World
Rapid health and medical advance- Many of the interventions/practices are challenged continuously:
- The Case against science:
Escalating Costs of Health Services- HS inflation is high- Treating more conditions (+ pre-emptive treatment)*- Short of public capital investment
Government Role shifts over time [Excel, Blunders]
Social Value shifts over time - Public & Patient Power driving change
Unregulated Private Sector - Social Responsibility
- Social Solidarity

Contracting Triggers & Drivers
Nature of Medicine (continuous change)
Costs of HealthCare vs Financial Situation
Escalating Public Demands/ Higher Expectations
PFI is significantly more expensive than Government funded projects with the cost of borrowing at least two times higher than Government financed works according to a 2011 HM Treasury Report.
What is a PPP?
Any collaboration between public bodies, such as local authorities or central government, and private companiestends to be referred to a public-private partnership (PPP)

What is Private-Finance Initiative (PFI)?
United KingdomPFI began 23 years ago and has been used to build schools and hospitals. It is a way by which Government getting the private sector to take on the financing, construction and operation of public sector infrastructure projects.
In return, firms lease back these schemes to the government, often on long term leases.
Potential Benefits of PPPs
More incentives for private sector to perform
New facilities available earlier
Increased levels of efficiency and innovation
Risks transferred to private sector
Forward spending commitments known and able to be
planned for
Potential Issues with PPPs
PPP contracts can be very complex
Results assessment is often subjective
Public sector may be locked into contracts
while health demands change
PPPs may not gain the population’s trust
Political View: Better
“Our ten year programme of
modernisation includes the
biggest ever hospital building
programme in the history of the
National Health Service.
The PPP Initiative is a vital
element in renewing the fabric
of the NHS”
Alan Milburn - Secretary of
State for Health 2001
Scientific View: Worse
“The political consequences are not to be
under estimated. There will be a mobilization
like hundreds of forest fires burning slowly
against each PPP scheme. They haven’t ignited but they will. You can fool the public
for quite a long time using technical and
arcane jargon but it only takes an Enron for
the public to realize the way in which private
finance is removing rights and entitlements
and the whole thing does begin to come
apart.”

Successful Partnership
Lessons learned
Design to meet policy objectives
Political commitment

Enabling legislation
Transparency
Good governments get good PPPs
Four Basic Dimensions of PPP
Each PPP is unique, but:
• Shared goals
• Shared resources (time, money, expertise, people)
• Shared risks
• Shared benefits
Be Reasonable ……….
