Hi Michael This looks not only interesting but materially significant. I really hope that anybody who has info can contribute. I don’t have anything myself but there is an interesting analysis of the IAPT recover claims in Paul Moloney’s “The Therapy Industry”. I have attached the bullet points from a summary of his analysis.

In October 2014, the Department of Health and NHS England jointly published Achieving Better Access to Mental Health Services by 2020. This set new standards for the time people should wait for mental health treatment and the care they should be able to access. In the case of IAPT services, the standards are that 75% of people referred should be treated within six weeks, and 95% within 18 weeks of referral, and that 50% of those who complete treatment will recover. NHS Digital publishes monthly statistics that report performance against these standards. This investigation will establish the facts around how the national statistics are prepared. >> >> >> This is a really significant opportunity for us to share our experiences of what is going wrong in performance management of services.
