The mandate: a mandate from the Government to NHS England - April 2015 to March 2016

Department of Health -The NHS mandate for 2015 to 2016 carries forward all existing objectives from the mandate for 2014 to 2015. There are two updates to existing objectives where we expect NHS England to make further progress: to join up health and social care services through the Better Care Fund and to introduce access and waiting time standards in important areas of mental health services by March 2016. It is structured around five main areas where the government expects NHS England to make improvements including preventing people from dying prematurely and enhancing quality of life for people with long-term conditions.
