NIHR Health and Social Care Delivery Research (HSDR) Programme

Evaluating the High Volume Low Complexity (HVLC) surgical hubs model

The Health and Social Care Delivery Research (HSDR) Programme is accepting stage one applications to this funding opportunity. The HSDR Programme wants to fund ambitious, impactful research evaluations alongside the roll-out of the High Volume Low Complexity (HVLC) surgical hubs model. Implementation of this model is currently focused in England but there is scope to design studies using comparative data from across the UK as part of the proposed evaluation. Study designs will need to account for the complexity of HVLC model (the intervention) and its spread, with variation in the maturity and uptake of the HVLC model between and across regions.

The HSDR Programme aims to commission high quality, well designed research which will be carried out by effective and efficient research teams, providing findings which meet the needs of NHS and Social Care managers and leaders.

Deadline for proposals: 25 May 2022
