The Basic Selection Questions were Pass/Fail and the award criteria for the Key Criteria Questions were as follows, scored on a combination of a 0-5 scoring mechanism and pass/fail and for information.
* Quality and Innovation 38%
* Value 14% (including Pass/Fail and for information questions)
* Integration, Collaboration & Service Sustainability 11% (including Pass/Fail questions)
* Improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating Choice 21%
* Social Value 16%
