Pharmacy and the NHS • Pharmacies are independent contractors • Market entry test is linked to PNA and JSNA • Three tiers of service commissioned by NHS England • Essential: all pharmacies have to provide • Advanced: all pharmacies can provide • Enhanced: locally commissioned by the Area Team • Local Authorities and Clinical Commissioning Groups may also commission services from community pharmacy to meet local needs

Key question Can the results seen in Portsmouth be replicated elsewhere with different demography and geography?
Evaluation aims • Is there better uptake and delivery of services in HLPs compared to baseline (i.e. before being an HLP or against other non-HLP pharmacies)? • Does geography and demography impact on HLP performance? • What is the effect of HLP services on public-reported experiences? • What are the benefits of HLP for public, commissioner, contractor, employees? • Is each individual service delivered through HLP cost-effective?
Service outcomes: sexual health • Buckinghamshire: • Pre-HLP, 75% of EHC through pharmacy • Post-HLP, 86% through pharmacy • Increase in condom distribution by 13% • Increase in Chlamydia screening discussion by 6% • Stoke on Trent: • Increase in consultations from 1600 to 1848 • 29% increase in chlamydia screening • East Riding and Hull • Average consultations in HLP 123, non-HLP 73 • Increased condom distribution (22.6% vs. 16.1%) • Portsmouth • Average consultations in HLP 160, 85 in non-HLPs (p<0.001) • Lambeth • Decrease in consultations*
Service outcomes: alcohol awareness • Dudley • 55 interventions prior to HLP; 280 after • Milton Keynes • Non-HLP 31 per pharmacy • Working towards HLP 38 per pharmacy • HLPs 59 per pharmacy • Portsmouth • Non-HLP 90 per pharmacy • HLPs 218 per pharmacy
Cost effectiveness • Contractor survey gives rich insight into how PH services are delivered • Evaluation has affirmed important role of non-pharmacist staff in delivery • Clear evidence that pharmacy staff are engaged and enthused by opportunities to make a difference; potential to spill over to better service outcomes • Stop smoking services delivered by non-pharmacist staff perform at least as well as pharmacists • Service can be delivered more effectively i.e. making best use of each staff member’s skills • And more cost effectively i.e. pharmacist’s time has a higher business cost • Academic evidence shows that stop smoking services are cost effective Making optimal use of each staff member’s time, without necessarily risking ability to generate positive health outcomes, indicates the potential of service delivery in the HLP context.
Commissioners’ views • “Becoming an HLP will display to commissioners pharmacy’s commitment to delivering cost effective and high quality services” [Birmingham tPCT and Solihull] • “Future commissioning can be targeted and offered to those pharmacies that we know will deliver. So this has become a great organisational tool to target commissioning more cost effectively” [Portsmouth] • “Public health commissioners see the HLP initiative in a very positive manner, public health teams are now keen to involve community pharmacies and in particular the HLPs in their service developments. They have volunteered to give on-going training to HLCs re information and signposting” [Dudley]
The Chief Medical Officer said … “HLPs work!” “They improve choice and we must ensure they are embedded in the new NHS” “Inspirational concept!” Dame Sally Davies
