Primary Health Networks (PHNs), established in 2015 to act as commissioners for non-hospital health and social care across Australia, enable a more comprehensive health planning approach to identify and prioritise service gaps and commission appropriate health services. Hence, building PHNs' capability in health commissioning is critical to maximising health outcomes of the Australian population.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>This study was conducted to identify the skill development needs of PHNs employees to lead and manage commissioning, and strategies to build commissioning capabilities across PHNs.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A multiphase mixed-method approach was used, including an anonymous online survey and two focus group discussions.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The health commissioning practices of PHNs directly affect PHN staff's confidence (Pearson's r=0.484, p<0.001) and self-perceived competence in their commissioning practices (Pearson's r=0.335, p<0.001). This study confirms that systematic upskilling commissioning among PHN employees, focusing on the commissioning cycle, complex healthcare environments, and data management, is required to improve their capabilities. This highlights the importance of organisational support in strengthening the six key factors for effective commissioning.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>The enhancement of PHNs' capability in health commissioning should be centered around employees' capability building guided by the proposed PHN health commissioning capability building model. Organisation investment in performance monitoring and enhancement, organisations' multi-strategy approach towards internal support and development, and external learning and development opportunities are the three key pillars.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Enhancing robust commissioning processes and strengthening leadership capabilities in health commissioning are essential for PHNs to meet the evolving healthcare needs of the population. Effective commissioning requires skilled and confident teams, systematic upskilling, organisational support, and strategic approaches to address challenges, deliver high-quality primary care, and improve population health outcomes. Building PHNs' commissioning capability requires a systematic and progressive skill development approach that prioritises a staff-centred model.</p>","PeriodicalId":44346,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Healthcare Leadership","volume":"17 ","pages":"241-258"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12145105/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144250178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although conducting informal consensus discussions is a frequently used implementation strategy in real-world clinical settings, limited information exists about what defines consensus when using these methods.

This study aimed to identify and define the key domains of consensus used in local consensus discussions to standardise healthcare practices.</p><p><strong>Patients and methods: </strong>A qualitative study was conducted in one private hospital in Australia using a modified, grounded theory methodology. Clinical, non-clinical and leadership staff involved in developing standardised perioperative pathways using informal consensus discussions were recruited.

Analysis identified four distinct consensus criteria: i) unanimous consensus, ii) delegated consensus, iii) assumed consensus and iv) concessional consensus. While unanimity was the preferred outcome, other consensus types emerged as viable alternatives when unanimous agreement was challenging to achieve. Each criterion had differing factors and mechanisms which influenced reaching the consensus criterion, underpinning assumptions, and considerations for practice, which formed four domains of consensus.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>These domains provide a structured framework for classifying consensus criteria when conducting local consensus discussions in healthcare.
