Argymhelliad terfynol yr Athro Palmer oedd sicrhau bod gan fyrddau iechyd olwg glir o ansawdd gofal clinigol, a'u bod yn ffurfio barn amserol a phenodol sy'n seiliedig ar risg ynghylch ansawdd a diogelwch gwasanaethau.
Professor Palmer’s final recommendation was to ensure health boards were fully sighted on the quality of clinical care and to make timely, explicit, risk-based judgements about the quality and safety of services.
