  1. Bsol Cluster LEPN What do we want service mapping to tell us?

  2. What do we need to know? • What are we spending on eye health services and what are we actually buying? • Programme budgeting ~£61million (2.5%) out of Cluster annual budget of~ £2.4billion • How does this breakdown by sector/ provider/treatment or service? • What choice of providers exist? Ease of access? • Are services for certain eye care problems effectively integrated across health and social care? • What do patients/carers and the local community think about eyecare services? • How does this all compare to what we know about needs? What are the gaps/duplication in provision?

  3. Discussion/Issues Raised In group during Process Mapping (HEFT/Solihull) • Do A&E send to BMEC • Do other providers send to BMEC for eye A&E • Optometrist have to provide sight test and claim even if GP refers for opinion as no enhanced services mechanism exists • Retinopathy screening, not fully understood • Hospitals don’t always receive referrals letters on time, so patients have to go to a general clinic before they can attend the right clinics • Coventry Triage system. • Pathway for PEARS • How many referrals from general clinic to AMD • Three month trial for Avastin • Muscular Oedema, what do we do? • Percentage of patients in secondary care for cataract but not treated • Are all the pathways being followed correctly • High number of DNAs for all children clinics • Ask orthoptics to future meetings • Bham/Solihull do not know they can refer to orthoptics??? • Coding at HEFT

  4. I wish……. • To improve DNA in children’s appointments. • To keep Dry AMD out of hospital and refer to low vision services. • To have a referral triage. • To have a triage system for ophthalmology referral. • To develop PEARS. • To stop wasting appointments and get referral right right first time. • To offer patients the best choices at the right point of contact with the NHS. • To increase the care optometrists can provide by giving more education and training. • To have a seamless patient pathway. • To have the same pathways delivered across Birmingham and Solihull. • To re-launch the cataract and AMD pathways. • To have a community glaucoma clinic. • To have reliable data from HES. • To educate Opticians, GPs and consultants about the right care at the right point of care. • To give optometrist access to choose and book. • To educate patients to improve the prevention of many eye diseases. • To improve GP chose and book to ensure patients are referred to the right clinic first time. • To increase 3rd sector contribution.
