What are Primary Care Trusts? PCTs are responsible for: - ensuring people can get access to treatment when they are ill - improving health and well being PCTs receive funding from the Department of Health via weighted capitation. This is around £1,560 per capita, eg Newcastle PCT = £428.4m, and then they: • Identify the local health needs of their population • Receive guidance on national priorities and policies from DH • Commission service provision to meet population needs and meet national requirements • Establish LBC and SLAs based on activity required, funding levels and quality standards • Manage LBC and SLA contracts through Performance Management Systems to make sure they are delivered as planned
Group Work • Look at the slide – ‘Where the £1.2 billion goes’ What % of total spend goes on Secondary Care? What % of total spend goes on Primary Care? What % of total spend goes on PCT provider services? Why is the money spent in this way? How do you think the PCT has decided to spend these sums of money on these services?
Group Work • What is Commissioning? Discuss and come up with an agreed definition
