Congratulations!
You've taken the first step towards realising Plixology
Now lets understand where you are
The Plixology Canvas:
A free tool for
NHS costing teams
The Plixology Canvas is a free strategic management tool that provides a visual framework for describing, designing, and analysing a trusts costing function
The canvas consists of six building blocks that represent the key elements of a costing department.
Using the Plixology Canvas, Trusts evaluate their costing function, improve it’s performance, and optimize their services. It defines the value proposition, targets customers, and aligns resources and activities for optimal efficiency.
Why you need a plixology canvas

- The visual format of the Plixology Canvas enhances accessibility and can be understood by anyone.
- It’s easy to edit and it can be easily shared with employees and stakeholders.
- It clarifies how different aspects of PLICS are related to each other.
- You can use a Plixology Canvas template to guide an ideas session on defining your PLICS status & strategy.

“In an environment characterised by ambiguity and change CareCosting are enabling the Trust to follow a patient journey across primary and secondary care, this allows us to look at boundary spanning activity in a way we haven’t been able to before.
We can now begin to look at the whole system and determine targeted interventions, align our strategic objectives in the trust, create programmes of change and use the data to open a dialog with Clinical staff in a way that truly gets them engaged as it starts with the patent but ultimately effects the bottom line. “
