Abstract
⸠Recent English health reforms have resulted in a shift of focus from targets to outcomes and to provision of care by any provider. ⸠The wide range of organisations now providing healthcare services are not easily classified as either public or private. ⸠A publicness grid for hospitals locates them according to the extent of their political and economic authority. ⸠A framework is given linking core, dimensional and normative publicness and their indicators to public service outcomes. ⸠Publicness theory can help health administrators and researchers understand and better manage public service outcomes.
