Innovative care model case studies: Learning for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) services
The innovative care model case studies (learning for COPD services) have been developed by NHS England to help local systems explore new and innovative service models that support the adoption of innovative treatments and pathways. They present a range of real-world examples, from both respiratory and non-respiratory settings, that illustrate practical approaches to redesigning care pathways and implementing new therapies.
Each case study highlights:
- Drivers for change
- How the model works and how it was implemented
- Outcomes, benefits and key learnings
- Workforce requirements, costs and potential savings.
Together, they offer transferable principles, evidence and data that can be applied and adapted to local contexts, helping systems shape and model their own services.
