On the topic of evaluations, the evaluation service which provides the familiar blue cover evaluation reports is now managed by NHS PASA, with a few resultant changes. Items will only get evaluated if they are proposed for evaluation, by people such as you, using the form at http://www.pasa.nhs.uk/evaluation/propose_project/

Please use this form if there are any items of medical equipment you want evaluating. If no projects are proposed, then no evaluations will take place. It is now truly YOUR service.
Use it or lose it.. (!!)

You might also be interested to know that the service now covers social services, and has a strong agenda towards innovation (products and procedures), so be sure to include items from these categories as well. Don't be constrained by what we have previously covered.
