Programming budgeting and marginal analysis (PBMA)

Programme Budgeting Marginal Analysis (PBMA) can be used as a systematic way of identifying the range of options available, the resources required to produce the options and their expected effectiveness.  NHS Programme Budgeting allocates Primary Care Trust (PCT) and Strategic Health Authorities (SHAs) expenditure, including primary care services, to programmes of care based on medical condition.
