NHS England has an identified budget of £24 million for its Commissioning through Evaluation programme in 2015/16. This will cover the six existing schemes that are already live, independent evaluation of the schemes via the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, and the provision of approximately £7 million funding to enable the consideration of one or more new schemes in 2015/16.
