Integration, Collaboration & Service Sustainability (25%) was equally weighted, reflecting the importance of partnerships with NHS services and fostering collaboration across systems. The provider was evaluated on their multidisciplinary working, information-sharing, and ability to ensure long-term service sustainability in response to workforce and policy challenges. Value (20%) was assessed to ensure services are financially viable and cost-effective, balancing high-quality care with efficient use of resources, ensuring the provider can sustain operations without compromising care. Access, Reducing Health Inequalities & Facilitating Choice (20%) was prioritised to ensure equitable service provision for all patient groups, particularly those from underserved or deprived communities.

Finally, Social Value (10%) was included to recognise the broader economic, social, and environmental contributions of hospice provider. This encompassed volunteer engagement, sustainability initiatives, and support for local communities, ensuring hospices deliver wider benefits beyond direct patient care.
