PROPOSED MONITORING ARRANGEMENTS 20th June 2005
Five key questions • 1. Is the NHS doing what it said it would do? • 2. Is the timetable being adhered to? • 3. Are the changes having the predicted impact? • 4. What is the public understanding of the changes? • Plus • 5. What else is going on and to what extent (if any) do local plans need to be modified?
Three general issues • 1. Difficulty in separating out specific impact of IIYH from impact of general changes in health and healthcare. • 2. Balance between hard and soft measures. • 3. Appropriateness of the level of detail.
What we said we would do • More local services • Expanded primary care and 15 (?) Community DTCs • Expanded intermediate care facilities • Expansion of elective care facilities and separation from emergency care • Different approach now between Hertfordshire & Bedfordshire • Concentration of hospital based services onto fewer sites • 4 major acute hospitals but 6 A&E departments remaining • Development of specialist services • Cancer centre within Beds and Herts • Distributed model of supra DGH services • Development of postgraduate medical school Proposal : Annual report and presentation
Timetable • Transitional plan • Key milestones for: • DTCs • Development of intermediate care • Elective treatment centres • Business case process for 2 major hospitals Proposal : Annual report and presentation Summary Gantt chart
Predicted impact (1) • Shift in expenditure • % revenue expenditure in acute, primary and other NHS care • More care locally • % fces delivered within Beds & Herts • % fces delivered in non-acute hospitals • % diagnostic tests delivered in non-acute hospitals • emergency bed days (also efficiency measure) • travel time assessment (emergency care) • Quality of care • standardised mortality rates • readmission rates • post operative infection rates (MRSA) • specific services and/or conditions? (e.g. cancer, cardiac) • PCT and Trust surveys on patient satisfaction
Predicted impact (2) • Separation of elective from emergency care • access times • transfers • patient satisfaction • Population’s health • wide range of indicators • More attractive place to work • vacancy rates • staff surveys Proposal : Annual report and presentation Web based population health
Public understanding • Do people know about IIYH and the proposed changes? • Are the changes having a beneficial impact? • Do behaviour changes reflect changes to model of care? • How are the changes being communicated? Proposal : Three-yearly major survey (MORI) with annual updates
External events and comparisons • Changes in government policy and national context, e.g. plurality, payment by results, choice, NHS funding • Changes in local organisations and local context, e.g. structural changes, financial performance, Harefield • Legal and procedural issues, e.g. judicial reviews, business cases • Beds & Herts compared to England average • Combined impact on IIYH Proposal : Annual report and presentation
