The Staffordshire Cancer and End of Life Programme advises that the costs for both the cancer and end of life procurements over a three year period up to October 2016 equates to £848,000. This has been funded by Cannock Chase, Stafford and Surrounds, North Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent Clinical Commissioning Groups. The cost to each clinical commissioning group over the three years is circa £200,000 which is £65,000 per annum. The four clinical commissioning groups’ total commissioning budget is circa £800 million per annum.
