Primary Care Networksan overview 3 December 2018 – paper 4 City Locality 13.12.18
This is a combination of slides from NHS E and CCG.Further information will be expected in the NHS 10 year planTerminology - neighbourhoods/clusters/Primary Care Networks
Recent National Push • Ten Year Plan: highly likely to place a big emphasis on primary care network working • Refreshing NHS Plans 2018-19: every practice encouraged to be part of a primary care network • NHS England’s Review of the Quality and Outcomes framework (July 2018): may be a ‘working at scale’ version of QOF • NHS England Primary Care Network Reference Guide (Draft August 2018)
A NHS E working definition • Enable the provision of proactive accessible, co-ordinated and more integrated primary and community care • Formed around natural communities based on GP registered lists • Often serve populations of around 30,000 – 50,000 patients. • Small enough to still provide personal care but large enough to have deeper impact by collaboration • Collaboration between practices and others in the local health (community and primary care) and social care system • Platform for providers of care being sustainable into the longer term
Progress so far in Oxford City • Neighbourhoods defined within Locality plans
NHSE Proposed PCN Benefits • For patients: • More joined up services • MDT/holistic care • Focus on prevention • For practices: • Greater resilience • Free up GP time • For the system: • Co-operation across organisational boundaries • Driving a more population-focussed approach • Strengthening of primary care and less need to default to hospital
Funding details • Non-recurrent sum available through OCA partners to develop Primary Care Networks • likely £600k for Oxfordshire • Some via STP to CCG and some via local regional NHS E team • 100% practice coverage expected
Requirement for funding • This may include determining: • current maturity of each neighbourhood • population needs • how to develop the integrated care teams (including CMHTs) • how care may be delivered to meet the needs of the local population • (including prevention and mental health) as well as align with system priorities.
Next steps • Firm up Primary Care Network formations • Agree Network names • Each network to agree current maturity (using maturity matrix)
