Parul Desai, CCEHC Chair, explains why her background in clinical and public health eye care is a perfect fit for a body that is helping to transform services.
The Clinical Council for Eye Health Commissioning (CCEHC) was formed in 2013 by organisations from across the eye health sector as an independent advisory body that could provide “evidence-based leadership and guidance at a national level to inform policy-makers and those commissioning and providing eye health and care services in England”.
“I think our collegiate and inclusive model for strategic leadership was ahead of the times,” CCEHC Chair Parul Desai says.
