2.6 Monitoring and Support from Department of Health and Human Services:
The DHHS Outcomes Purchasing Framework was finalised in April 2014 and aims to establish a common approach to the commissioning and monitoring of client outcomes across all Department program areas that administer grant funding to the community sector.
The outcomes purchasing framework will be used to systematically document what each Department program is trying to achieve, the indicators for measuring the achievement of these outcomes and the processes for using this information to improve outcomes. It is intended that the framework be progressively applied across all Department grant programs and all funding agreements under these programs.
