Welcome To Luach Consulting Group

At Luach Consulting Group, we take a clear and practical approach to supporting healthcare organisations and industry partners (including medtech and pharma) in adopting Value‑Based Healthcare (VBHC) and Value‑Based Procurement (VBP). Our focus is on helping both sides improve patient outcomes, increase efficiency, reduce the total cost of care, and deliver meaningful progress against their strategic goals.

Value-Based Procurement - A great fit for the present and future of the NHS

By Brian Mangan • July 24, 2025
Luach Consulting Group and its partner organisation, Hill Dickinson, have been developing and promoting the benefits of transitioning towards a value-based approach to procurement and healthcare for a decade. Significant progress has been made in recent years, with the completion of a national VBP proof-of-concept project sponsored by NHS Supply Chain and subsequently developed further by the Medtech Directorate of the Department for Health and Social Care. This article considers how value-based approaches are emerging as a means to deliver improved patient care, increase efficiency in clinical practice, and reduce the total costs of care. It is closely aligned with the objectives outlined in the recently published NHS Fit for the Future (FFTF) strategy. As the value paradigm reshapes the healthcare landscape, Luach Consulting Group stands uniquely equipped to help your organisation lead the way and unlock its full potential, contact us for an exploratory discussion.

Accelerating the adoption of Value Based Procurement - Phase 2

By Brian Mangan • July 22, 2025
On 22nd May 2025 Luach Consulting Group, in partnership with law firm Hill Dickinson, held the second in a series of events focussed on accelerating the adoption of value- based procurement (VBP). Our initial event, in October 2024 was extremely successful and identified six key areas of development including: The need to be clear about what is meant when we use the term ‘value’ to bring about widespread VBP adoption Aligning the NHS finance regime to recognise and incorporate value The need to evidence and contract for the delivery of value in the NHS - harnessing the power of data and measurement Incentivising a longer-term focus Creating a visible pipeline of VBP activity Maintaining a consistent agreed communications strategy for VBP adoption This second event in May 2025 picked up these themes with the aim of both assessing progress in addressing these areas; and engaging with the wider clinical and NHS finance community to promote wider stakeholder support and involvement. Whilst the event pre-dated the publication of the new 10 year plan for the NHS “Fit for the future”, it is highly encouraging to see that the work the group has undertaken is closely aligned with the ambitions of the Government strategy in terms of its focus on the delivery of value, productivity, improved patient outcomes and promotion of innovation.
