ISD's NHS Resources programme collects, disseminates and interprets high quality comprehensive data on costs and expenditure across NHS Scotland and supports its use within the service. It maintains and develops the methodology for costing national hospital activity and supports benchmarking activities within NHS Scotland. In addition, the programme works closely with stakeholders to provide information that can be used to help Boards identify opportunities for improved efficiency and productivity, providing data management, analysis, project management and consultancy support.
The aim of the NHS Resources programme is to provide the information and analytical expertise to identify areas of potential improvement, productivity and cost reduction within the health service using comparable statistics on activity and financial data in new and innovative ways.
ISD holds and maintains a range of data relating to health finance in Scotland. This includes information on:
- NHS Costs or Costs Book
- Resource Allocation Formula
- Scottish National Tariff
- National Benchmarking Project

The majority of activities within the NHS Resources programme fall under the remit of the NHS Scotland Efficiency and Productivity Programme. The Efficiency and Productivity Information Development Group (EPID) acts as a steering group for the NHS Resources programme.
