This briefing describes the Joint Commissioning Panel for Mental Health (JCP-MH), a collaborative co-chaired by the Royal College of Psychiatrists and the Royal College of General Practitioners. The collaboration includes seventeen leading organisations, inspiring commissioners to improve mental health and wellbeing, using a values based commissioning model. It brings together service users, carers, clinicians, commissioners, managers and others to deliver the best possible commissioning for mental health and wellbeing.
The JCP-MH publishes briefings on the key values for effective mental health commissioning. It also provides practical guidance and a framework for mental health commissioning and supports commissioners in commissioning mental health care that delivers the best possible outcomes for health and well being

Guides and tools to improve commissioning outcomes
Bringing together scientific
evidence, user and carer experience,
and case-studies of best practice,
these have been produced by a
coalition of leading organisations.
Later in 2014, the JCP will publish
additional guides on autistic
spectrum disorders, neuropsychiatry,
employment services, and recovery
interventions.
The JCP has also published a mental
health and wellbeing commissioning
pack. This was produced in
collaboration with the former
Strategic Health Authority Mental
Health Leads’ Group.
This contains tools for needs
assessment, contract inserts, cost-
benefit tools, and other resources.
The JCP also works directly with
CCGs and HWBs to review and
improve practice.
