BRC was established in 2007 by David Thorne to provide support to the NHS and parallel services to companies looking to improve their interaction with the NHS
David has 35 years experience of senior roles in nursing, hospital management, commissioning, academia, pharma and medtech. He is a national expert on clinical commissioning, primary care federated working and the application of real world data to service redesign
We deploy around 70 different associates each year, throughout the UK and with expertise tailored to assignment
All associates occupy NHS roles so our insights are hard to beat for their authenticity, contemporary accuracy and practical application. If you’re interested in being an associate then click here
We don’t do abstract theory, bizarre concepts or diagrams that baffle. Instead we work alongside doctors, nurses, pharmacists and practice managers every day to improve health care. We understand what policy means in practice for our clients. Therefore we can help those developing innovative medicines, medical technology and software to better understand their customers and contribute increased value to the NHS
We spend most of our time in NHS work. All core staff and associates work in roles within the NHS. We have an intimate understanding of NHS formal and informal systems. Our scope covers all clinical and managerial roles and our people are forward-thinking leaders in the new integrated world of health and social care
Our focus is upon GP federations, the primary care home, STPs, ACOs and PLICs
Few companies can claim to understand the NHS as well as us. We come from the NHS, we work within it every day and we know how to get things done. We “speak NHS” and we can translate it too! Evaluations of our work continually emphasise the same key point – its success is based on its sharp authenticity
We have worked with 100 commercial companies to better align their work to what the NHS and its patients really need. We can also access sources that other companies have not considered as part of building value propositions
