Abstract

Health systems face rising demand and resource constraints, exacerbated by the SARS-CoV-2 (“COVID-19”) pandemic. Value-Based Healthcare prioritizes the achievement of outcomes that matter to patients at the lowest possible cost. The British Society for Surgery of the Hand guidance supports the perfo...
