Evidence-based support for healthcare commissioning
About us
Bazian was started by two clinicians at the British Medical Journal who were helping to establish its product Clinical Evidence. Recognising the utility of evidence-based medicine for health systems globally, they founded Bazian in 1999. Since then Bazian has worked with various NHS groups including NICE, PASA-CEP, the Next Stage Review, Specialised Commissioning and individual PCTs to bring robust evidence and expertise to pathway and service design, commissioning business cases and purchasing/coverage decisions.
Bazian has also supplied high volumes of evidence-based analyses and care pathways to point of care tools and journals, including Clinical Evidence, The Map of Medicine and Evidence-based Mental Health. More recently the company provides daily analyses of the evidence underpinning healthcare stories in the daily media for Behind the Headlines on NHS Choices.
