    NHS Bexley CCG - Commissioning Intentions 2016+

    This paper is for Decision

    Recommended action for the Governing Body

    That the Governing Body: Approve The CCG’s Commissioning Intentions for 2016+

    Potential areas for Conflicts of interest

    None known.

    Executive summary

    Over the past year the CCG has been developing its commissioning intentions for the next 2 year period (in detail) with stakeholders from across the health economy, fundamental to their development has been GP engagement and the significant input of our GP clinical leads. This will form the basis of our strategy for the coming years. The South East London 5 year strategy (Our Healthier South East London), which articulates the key themes where the 6 local commissioning organisations have agreed to work collaboratively, lies at the core of the document and is then supplemented by uniquely local requirements. This ensures that our plans dovetail smoothly with planning and delivery across South East London (our Strategic Transformation Plan STP level). An initial GP engagement event took place in June 2015, and the GP clinical leads then met across the summer of 2015 to arrive at the draft plans. An engagement event was organised by the CCG on 3 November 2015 with representatives from patients, local NHS, independent and third sector providers as well as key commissioning partners such as London Borough of Bexley. Participants were invited to comment on the draft Commissioning Intentions and take part in a break out session focusing on one of the priority areas for change. The draft plans were discussed and there was support for these.

    ENCLOSURE: J Agenda Item: 33/16

    Governing Body meeting (held in public)

    1 of 4

  • Since November 2015 CCG teams have continually updated the document to reflect emerging national and local changes. Bexley CCG has utilised bench marking tools provided by NHS England to ensure that all areas for service improvement are investigated and acted upon. The document has been updated to include new areas of opportunity identified in this way. The CCG received notice of financial allocations to cover the period to March 31st 2017 from NHS England and a process was undertaken to ensure alignment of the plans with the expected financial settlement. The Governing Body are asked to approve the Commissioning Intentions 2016+.

    How does this paper support the CCGs objectives?

    Patients:

    The document reconfirms our Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy priorities as well as embedding self-management for long term conditions. It has integrated and collaborative commissioning with the council and fellow CCGs, as well as NHS England as a key enabler of success. We can achieve more together than apart

    People:

    Organisation and Workforce Development is one of our six key commissioning “enablers”. Our own Organisational Development Plan guides the development of our own staff and we will work closely with the Academic Health Sciences Centre and Health Education England to maximise innovation and plan for the necessary changing workforce that will support the Community Based Care approach.

    Pounds:

    The document sets out three financial scenarios: upside, downside and base- case. The QIPP has been extensively modelled, tested and challenged through our Programme Office approach which is set out. Financial Sustainability is one of the four key “pillars”. The inclusive CCG-wide approach taken means that financial sustainability and quality/safety have been worked on in a balanced way, together.

    Process: The document serves as the foundation for our Operating Plan. The document has a strong focus on quality and safety with a clear set of short term and strategic priorities which will be advanced both through strong contractual review working with neighbouring CCGs and by continuing the journey of cultural change set out by Francis and Berwick. Involvement of patients and the public, together with good clinical engagement will ensure that we triangulate hard and soft quality trends and build an open, enabling approach. The JSNA refresh is indicating that our priorities are the right

  • ones still, but that we now need to gear them to the areas of greatest deprivation within Bexley by fine-tuning our interventions by ward, gender, deprivation, age and ethnicity.

    What are the Organisational implications

    Key risks

    Equality

    The need to gear existing programmes and show how we intend to impact on those in greatest need. This will need considerable Equality Impact Assessment work.

    Financial

    The risks are well known and the main elements that need careful negotiation are the split between CCG and NHS England (specialised commissioning) budgets and reaching agreement on the Transformation Fund.

    Data

    Legal issues

    NHS constitution

    We will integrate all actions to meet Constitution standards into our mainstream plans. The document has a separate chapter that transparently sets out our red areas and proposes action plans.

    Engagement

    There has been wide engagement in the development of our Commissioning Intentions and there will be continuing discussion and iteration of these plans with all our stakeholders, providers and partners.

    Patient and public involvement is embedded throughout the individual programmes and projects that form our commissioning intentions. It is anticipated that engagement and consultation will be undertaken as appropriate for each specific area as it is developed.

    Audit trail

    Financial position and plans are regularly considered by the Finance Working Group. PCAG has been engaged and Executive Management Committee has received periodic updates. Draft versions of the plan have been shared with the Governing Body.

    Comms plan

    Once agreed by the governing body, the commissioning intentions document will be officially launched at the GP engagement event on 14th April 2016.

    The documents will be published on a new page of the CCG’s public website and publicised via the CCG bulletin, locality briefings, staff briefings, stakeholder updates and Twitter.

  • 1. Introduction

    3

    NHS Bexley Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) plans (the CCG), purchases (or „commissions‟) and monitors

    the majority of health services accessed by Bexley residents (with the exception of specialised services which are

    commissioned by NHS England, and primary care services which it now co-commissions with NHS England).

    In 2014 the CCG produced our Commissioning Intentions strategy document, that explained our high-level plans

    and areas of focus this document updates the 2014 documents and sets out NHS Bexley CCG‟s strategic

    direction of travel for 2016/17 onwards.

    To establish what the commissioning intentions for 2016/17 are, the CCG considers the health needs of local

    people, health challenges and ensures its plans align to other key strategic documents such as, the NHS Five

    Year Forward View, the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment and the Our Healthier South East London strategy.

    Engagement is also key to the development of commissioning intentions. The CCG has worked alongside the GP

    practice community, its clinical leads, patients and patient/community groups, voluntary sector organisations,

    providers, local authority partners and others to produce this document and will throughout the year, keep these

    key groups updated on the progress being made against it.

    To help articulate its plans, the CCG will develop (as it has in previous years) a Plan on a Page, which will

    highlight the key focus areas for 2016/17 as well as the priority schemes of work and provides an aide memoire,

    this is shown at page 5 of this document.

  • 2.Chairperson and Chief Officer‟s Introduction

    4

    We are pleased to share NHS Bexley Clinical Commissioning Group‟s (CCG) commissioning plans for healthcare in Bexley

    for 2016 and beyond.

    This is our third set of such plans since the CCG was established in 2013 as part of the wider health reforms that saw GPs,

    and other clinicians, put in the driving seat of deciding how and where money is best spent.

    Working alongside our colleagues and partners we have made great strides in improving healthcare services since our last

    plan in 2014. We have delivered an ambitious programme of service development, transformation and improvement – for

    example, making massive changes in how musculoskeletal services are provided and the enhancement of urgent care and

    out-of-hours provision. Major transformations at Queen Marys and Erith hospitals are underway to develop vibrant centres

    of healthcare in the borough.

    Much of work over the next few years will be building locally on the Our Healthier South East London programme, which

    brings together the six CCGs in south-east London, working alongside partners and patients, to focus on priority health

    issues that are best addressed collectively.

    Our plans will also be underpinned by the NHS Five year Forward View, which sets out what the NHS needs to do to

    improve the population‟s health and the health services that they receive.

    We will maintain our strong focus on quality and safety as well as ensuring that patients are at the centre of everything we do.

  • 4. Our track record so far

    6

    In 2014 we identified the key priorities for the CCG (within our Commissioning Intentions 2014) we set an

    ambitious program of services development, transformation and improvement. We are pleased to report that the

    CCG delivered against the majority of its priority areas in 2014/15, making it a milestone year for NHS Bexley

    CCG and its patients. This was due work led by the CCG, our patients and clinicians, to redesign a number of

    services to help join-up care across a number of different providers to ensure patients receive the right care, in

    the right place, first time.

    For example, the CCG‟s new joined-up musculoskeletal (MSK) service, is providing patients with a much more

    rounded picture of care. Patients are initially triaged by a number of health professionals, who help to ensure

    patients receive the right treatment first time. Patients receive a more holistic approach to their treatment and are

    offered greater choice about where they would like to receive care. The new service has seen waiting times

    reduce – from 22 weeks to four for physiotherapy appointments. Patient feedback has been extremely positive

    through the CCG mystery shopper scheme. Our new integrated Cardiology services (community & acute

    care) are providing better support for patients focusing on faster access, improved health, prevention and

    avoiding exacerbations – avoiding admissions to hospitals.

    Bexley‟s new urgent and unscheduled care service has helped to revitalise Erith hospital as a hub of activity

    with a new urgent care centre (UCC), in operation from 8am to 10pm daily. The UCC at Queen Mary‟s hospital,

    open 24 hours a day seven days a week, has remained a popular service with patients in Bexley and beyond.

    The pathway also includes a new borough-based GP out-of-hours service. This new service has helped to reduce

    the number of Bexley patients accessing accident and emergency departments and in turn, reducing pressure on

    the overall health system.

  • 5. Our Vision, Mission and Values

    Our Vision, or longer term goal, is for Bexley‟s residents to stay in better health for longer, with the support of good-quality integrated-care, available as close to home as possible – backed up by

    accessible, safe and expert hospital services, when they are needed.

    Our Mission, or “the job in hand” is Excellent Healthcare; Locally Delivered.

    The vision and mission are supported by our Values, which guide how we work, the kind of culture we live by & how we ASPIRE to behave.

  • 6. Our Healthier South East London

    Our Healthier South East London is a 5 year commissioning strategy which aims to

    improve health and integrated care across south east London. It is the cornerstone NHS

    Bexley CCGs Commissioning Strategy.

    The programme is led by the six NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups in south east

    London – Bexley, Bromley, Greenwich, Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark – with

    commissioners from NHS England (London), working in close partnership with local

    authorities; local people and patients; local providers of care and other partners.

    Our Healthier South East London focuses on priority health issues which need

    collective action to address successfully. Its goals are to improve health, reduce

    health inequalities and to ensure the provision of health services that meet safety

    and quality standards consistently and are sustainable in the longer term.

    This is likely to mean that the way in which some health services are delivered will

    change, with more care provided in community settings outside hospital and a

    greater focus on helping people to stay well, making services more joined up and

    making sure that everyone gets the care and outcomes they expect from their NHS.

    Further details on OHSEL and work program are shown later in this document.

  • 7. The NHS 5 Year Forward View (5YFV)

    9

    The NHS 5 Year Forward View (5YFV) was published in October 2014 and sets out a

    clear direction and vision for the NHS showing why change is needed and what it will

    look like. It recognises that in the last 15 years the NHS has dramatically improved,

    but we can still do more. The key points of the 5YFV are:

    • There needs to be radical upgrade in prevention and public health. The NHS

    needs to back hard hitting national action on obesity, smoking, alcohol and other

    major health risks.

    • When people do need health services, then patients need far greater control over

    their own care.

    • The NHS must take decisive steps to break down the barriers in how care is

    provided. It recognises England is too diverse for a “one size fits all” care model,

    but we need to support and develop new delivery options (not letting “a 1,000

    flowers bloom”). There are opportunities for new integrated care models and

    these will be tested and developed, some of these will be similar to Accountable

    Care Organisations being used in other countries.

    • The national leadership of the NHS needs to act coherently together, and provide

    meaningful local flexibility. Growing demand could mean a resource gap of £30

    billion a year by 2020/21, action therefore needs to be taken on the 3 fronts of

    demand, efficiency & funding to help close the gap.

    These Commissioning Intentions and the Our Healthier South East London Strategy

    are built on the basis of the 5YFV.

  • 8. Bexley‟s Population Key Statistics

    10

    Bexley‟s population was 239,865 in 2014, an increase of 10% since the 2001

    Census. There was a 6.7% increased in the under 5s, and a 16.6% increase in

    aged 65 and over.

    Between 2014 and 2021 the Bexley population is predicted to rise by 4.6%, to

    250,900 people and to 266,600 by 2030 (an 11.5% increase). The most

    significant growth is predicted amongst the 0-15 year age band and in those

    aged 65+. Our growing population places pressure on all public services.

    The fastest growing ethnic group in Bexley is Black/ African/ Caribbean/ Black

    British, now making up 8.5% of the total population.

    The Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) places Bexley in decile 4 (1 being least

    deprived and 10 being most deprived). However, this overall average position

    masks important areas of deprivation and higher need, most notably in the

    north and the south east of the borough.

    Life expectancy at birth for both males and females in Bexley is above the

    national average.

    Life expectancy at the age of 65 years in Bexley is also above the national

    average for both males and females.

  • 10. Quality and Safety

    12

    NHS Bexley CCG puts quality and patient safety at the heart of commissioning and contracting,

    and expects its providers to be able to demonstrate that they have robust clinical governance

    arrangements in place to protect patients from harm.

    Our Quality & Safety Priorities going forward are:

    • To embed learning from incidents, complaints and patient feedback, thereby reducing the

    potential for further incidents (e.g. wider use of Quality Alert portal).

    • Safeguarding children & vulnerable adults.

    • Supporting Quality improvement through greater collaboration between hospital and community

    services.

    • To improve the quality of information between secondary, primary and community care e.g.

    referrals and discharge.

    • A better understanding around the prevention of inequality for the vulnerable groups and their

    access to treatment.

    • A CQUIN strategy that focuses on better outcomes for our patients.

    12 of 40

  • 11. Performance and outcomes

    13

    The CCG continues to work with our care providers to deliver significant improvements in

    the quality and safety standards across secondary, community and primary care.

    In particular:

    • Performance and Quality of Care at A&E departments

    • Cancer services

    • Infection Prevention and Control

    • District Nursing

    • Implementation of the London Quality Standards (see also Our Healthier SE London)

    • Quality of Maternity provision for the women of Bexley (see also Our Healthier SE London)

    • End of Life Care (linking through Care Home Forum) (see also Our Healthier SE London)

    • Better Outcomes through closer working with Care Homes

    • Quality Small Contracts via Provider Assurance Monitoring System (PAMS)

    The CCG will implement annual audit work plans to support the drive for better outcomes.

    13 of 40

  • 12.1 Patient Participation and Experience

    14

    We are actively engaging with local residents, patients and their carers in the development of the services

    we commission.

    We are committed to putting patients at the heart of everything we do, with an equal commitment to

    working with patients and the public as partners. Their insight into services provides a valuable “richness”

    and perspective and is fundamental to our design, development and monitoring of services.

    The CCG also works closely with LBB, BVSC and a range of community, voluntary and faith sector

    groups who help us reach many seldom heard communities.

    We utilise a number of engagement channels including a Patient Council, who is represented on the

    Governing Body and whose membership includes representatives reflecting nine protected characteristics

    identified in EDS as well as Patient Participation Group (PPG) representatives and Bexley Healthwatch

    Chair.

    In 2014 the CCG launched a mystery shopper scheme. The scheme gives patients the chance to be

    actively involved in shaping local health services by providing „real time‟ feedback on their experience.

    Encouraging health conversations with patients/public enables us to gather additional views and at the

    same time empowers people to be more involved in shaping their local NHS.

    14 of 40

  • 12.2 Patient Participation and Experience

    15

    The CCG has worked closely with patients/ public to develop and test, then redesign and monitor the

    services we commission, some examples of this are:

    • MSK Service redesign – developing a patient survey, hosting patient focus groups, recruiting

    patients to sit on contract monitoring board

    • Cardiology Service redesign – developing a patient survey, in-depth patient interviews, hosting

    patient focus groups, engagement sessions with local service user groups

    Patients and public representatives have been very involved in developing work around the Our Healthier

    South East London strategy and leading a number of local engagement activities to raise awareness and

    engage Bexley residents.

    Our plans for patient engagement in the service redesigns for the next 2 years include:

    • Ophthalmology services (establishment of a programme board with patients at the heart)

    • Diabetes redesign

    • Children & Young People‟s services

    15 of 40

  • 13. The CCG‟s membership

    16

    The CCG‟s membership is made up of representatives from each of the borough‟s GP practices.

    Although decision making has been devolved to the governing body, the CCG works alongside its

    members to ensure the services that it commissions are clinically-led, relevant and appropriate.

    Our membership is divided into localities (North Bexley, Clocktower and Frognal) and the CCG meets

    monthly with those localities. The localities provide current feedback on the quality of services that

    provides a clear perspective from the ground up level on how those services are performing or the

    opportunity for change.

    The CCG has engaged members in the development of 2016/17 development plans by:

    • Using quarterly engagement sessions to explain how commissioning plans were met in 2014/15

    • Holding workshops with clinical leads and practice managers to identify the priority areas for

    2016/17

    • Engage GPs via locality meetings

    • Communicate updates through public meetings, the GP zone (a secure extranet) and the CCG‟s

    fortnightly bulletin.

    • Meeting monthly with the localities (with CCG Director level representatives) to receive updates

    and provide feedback.

  • 14. Our Finances - Overview

    17

    The CCG has a Revenue Resource Limit (RRL) for 2016/17 of £299m including £5m for Running Cost

    Allowance (RCA). The CCG intends to comply with all business rules for 2016/17, except for the 1% surplus

    requirement (we intend to achieve a surplus of £151k). We will ensure that:

    • 0.5% contingency is in place

    • 1% non-recurrent transformation fund is in place

    • A medium term financial strategy is in place to cover the next 5 years.

    Our key priorities are to deliver breakeven, remain with running cost allowance and meet Better Payment

    Practice Code (BPPC) (payment of 95% of invoices within 30 days).

    Our key risks remain acute over performance, prescribing, continuing healthcare and identification of and

    delivery of QIPP.

    Our risk mitigations are the contingency available, discussions with GP practices on delegated prescribing

    for 2nd year, ensuring robust monitoring of acute contracts, exploration of Right Care opportunities and

    access to the south east London risk pool.

    On the next page we look at how we spend our RRL.

    19

    The QIPP planning requirement is for at least 2% of Revenue Resource Limit

    which equates to £5.8m for the CCG. However, the CCG needs to deliver £8.6m

    to achieve its statutory breakeven duty. The CCG has a strong track record of

    delivering service quality improvements (transformation & innovation) that have

    lead to it being successful in delivering its QIPP programs since 2013. We have

    robust processes in place to monitor these schemes (via our PMO office). In

    2016/17 onwards the cornerstones for our QIPP schemes will be our work on Our

    Healthier South East London, together with the NHS 5 Year Forward View. Our

    more localised QIPP schemes are:

    • Year 1 of our new Integrated and Community Based Pathways for Children

    and Young People

    • Diabetes – new integrated care pathway (primary care lead)

    • Improved “frailty” pathways including Comprehensive Geriatric Assessments

    • Ophthalmology – our lead provider framework

    • Our GP Referrals project

    • Provider productivity (across all contracts)

    • End of Life care scheme (linked directly to our Better Care Fund see later in

    the document)

    • MSK & cardiology – integrated care contracts continued refinement &

    improvement

    • Corporate Schemes

    QIPP stands for Quality, Innovation, Productivity & Prevention. It is a national, regional and local level

    programme designed to support clinical teams and NHS organisations to improve the quality of care they

    deliver, while making efficiency savings that can be reinvested into the NHS.

    The CCG is currently forecasting 80% achievement of its 2015/16 QIPP programme

  • 17. Our Commissioning Strategy - Introduction

    20

    The following slides show the key components of our Commissioning Intentions (Strategy) – these are

    based on two cornerstones – Our Healthier South East London (OHSEL) 5 year strategy and then the NHS

    5 Year Forward View (see previous section).

    We have sub divided this section into:

    1. Overview of the integrated whole system model for Our Healthier South East London

    2. Primary & community based care (including Local Care Networks)

    3. Planned care services

    4. Urgent & emergency care services

    5. Maternity services

    6. Children & Young People‟s services

    7. Cancer services (including End of Life Care)

    8. Queen Mary‟s & Erith Hospitals (continued development of our health hub & spoke)

    In each of the sub sections we firstly look at the model (and its key features) that we are developing across

    south east London, and then add to this the “Bexley centric” initiatives that are that we intend to deliver

    over and above the initiatives within the Our Healthier South East London strategy.

    The CCG and its members have already come along way in developing services since its formation in 2013

    – we have developed new integrated service pathways, and our intention is to build on this sound platform

    in the future.

    19.1 Bexley‟s Primary Care – overview of intentions

    Through our Primary Care development programme we are focusing on the development of our Local Care Networks – through this we aim

    to provide quality & equality of services to the population, wrapped around the person as an individual. The diagram below shows the

    initiatives and the key tenets of the work program:

    24 of 40

  • 25

    Through our Local Care Networks we intend to harness the power of primary care to provide more

    localised services for our community (community based care), wherever possible these will be focused

    around or in our 3 GP localities of Clocktower, Frognal and North Bexley.

    In addition to the work shown on the previous page we will aim to:

    1. Develop an improved, easily accessible & searchable Directory of Services (which includes

    charitable, voluntary, health & social care services) providing a resource library of services for

    patients and health & social care professionals.

    2. Undertake a review of district and community nursing teams ensuring that they are focused on &

    accountable to the Local Care Network and its patient‟s needs.

    3. Long term conditions, undertake a review of education services (this will be linked to 1. above).

    4. Via co-commissioning to assist practices with recruitment and retention.

    5. Roll out of social prescribing pilot to all localities (if the pilot is successful).

    6. Implementation and embedding of Health Champions in the GP practices.

    It is our intention

    that we will

    improve patient

    outcomes

    through

    prevention &

    earlier detection &

    diagnosis of

    cancer.

    We will provide

    stronger support

    for people living

    with & beyond

    cancer.

    24.2 Cancer and End of Life Care in Bexley

    In addition to our work within OHSEL care model our intention is to also

    implement the following:

    Ref Initiative Cancer & End of Life Care Services

    2016/17 2017/18

    1 Open Queen Mary‟s Cancer Centre – summer 2016 including well-being services e.g. Care navigator to

    coordinate care and signpost for patients/carers

    Yes

    2 NHS Constitution standards for Cancer Services: Ensure that the waiting and treatment times are

    consistently met by all providers of services

    Yes Yes

    3 End of Life Care Services (including Care Planning):

    1. Co-ordinate My Care (CMC) – to work with other CCGs and the CMC team in London to simplify the

    tool, and to integrate and link the tool into GP practice systems.

    2. Continued promotion of the use of CMC with GP practices (and all service providers) continued

    emphasis of improving the number of our appropriate residents that have a CMC plan at the end of their

    life.

    3. Continued expansion of our End of Life Care Services (especially for non cancer patients): Designed to

    reduce unnecessary admissions in the last year of life and at the end of their life (community, and

    hospice services). Continued improvement in the number of patients able to die in their Normal Place of

    Residence (choice).

    4. Better bereavement support is needed: Consider those aged 20-59 where a significant other had died.

    Ensure visibility and accessibility of the services.

    5. Care of the dying - review of personal care and support services. Domiciliary care - ensure they have

    time to listen and staff have information on services and contacts (consider care co-ordinators)

    Yes Yes

    4 Cancer: To improve early detection by GP‟s through the implementation of NICE guidance for referrals (signs

    and symptoms of 37 cancers) and continued delivery of GP education events.

    Yes Yes

    5 Cancer: Streamline the services and pathways to ensure clear responsibilities and transfer of care (with

    patient records).

    Yes Yes

  • 25. QMH and Erith Hospitals

    36

    To help implement new

    commissioning

    arrangements e.g. an

    integrated MSK service,

    cardiology service, urgent

    and unscheduled care

    service etc. the CCG has

    been working with its

    partners to develop and

    transform both Erith and

    Queen Mary‟s hospital

    sites as „smaller viable

    hospitals‟.

    The CCG explains this

    model as a multi-provider

    health „hub‟ – at Queen

    Mary‟s Hospital – and a

    „spoke‟ – at Erith Hospital.

    The diagram to the right

    shows the services that

    have been opened, plus

    new expanded services

    that will open in 2016

    onwards.

  • 26. Partnerships and working at scale

    37

    The CCG is working with the other five SE London CCGs and their co-commissioners from NHS England, London

    region, on a five-year commissioning strategy (Our Healthier South East London) that aims to improve health,

    reduce health inequalities and ensure the provision of health services across south-east London that meets high

    standards of safety and quality and are sustainable in the longer term. The strategy is commissioner-led and

    clinically-driven and focuses on issues for people across south-east London, which need collective action to

    address them successfully, or where there is clear added value from the commissioners working together. Details

    of this strategy are shown earlier in this document.

    The CCG will continue to work with London Borough of Bexley (LBB) to further develop integrated commissioning

    arrangements, with the emphasis on development of Local Care Networks and integrated care based around GP

    localities.

    We are working with BVSC and other voluntary sector partners in line with the Building Healthy Partnerships

    Programme to implement co-production around:

    • Early help for vulnerable children

    • Dementia pathways

    • Joint commissioning cycle

    • Voluntary sector enjoyment with primary care

    In addition to the above Bexley CCG continues to work across London with other CCGs and other bodies to

    commission at scale and design improved services for our populations (examples of these groups are; ambulance

    services commissioning, the Mayor‟s London Transformation Board, various clinical networks etc.)

  • 27. Our Better Care Fund

    38

    In Bexley a key focus for our Better Care Fund is reducing End of Life admissions (& admissions in the last year of life) to deliver better

    outcomes for our patients. Overall it is designed to: Reduce non-elective admissions (i.e. emergency); Reduce admissions to care

    homes; Reduce falls; Reduce Delayed Transfers of Care (i.e. where patients are in hospital when they need not be); Increase re-

    ablement (all of these are designed to maintain independence and out of hospital or institutional care settings). We will seek to

    develop an enhanced culture of collaboration through development of Local Care Networks. We are working closely with the London

    Borough of Bexley to promote early identification of carers and early intervention to prevent escalation of need. The Better Care Fund

    is overseen by the Health & Well Being Board and the CCG‟s Governing Body. Regular reports on performance are received by both

    groups.

    Both nationally and locally the Better Care Fund (BCF) is facing a significant challenge in achieving reductions in non-elective

    admissions and being the ability to accurately demonstrate the impact of the dedicated BCF schemes. In 2014 Bexley was in the top

    decile of performers nationally for ambulatory care admissions to our hospitals (based on population) – this clearly showed the impact

    of our admission avoidance and community schemes. However, during 2015 this has reduced to upper quartile performance –

    although this still remains an excellent level of performance. The introduction of a new clinical decision unit at one of our providers,

    and changes in reporting systems has complicated the reporting of performance in this area. The CCG agreed with LBB to release the

    quarter 1 & 2 BCF „performance related payment‟ which reflects the value we place on the joint work with LBB to reduce avoidable

    admissions. These difficulties have been highlighted to the national Better Care Fund team.

    For 2015/16 this work will continue and we will seek to promote an enhanced culture of collaboration through the development of our

    Local Care Networks. We have appointed a joint project manager between the CCG, LBB and Oxleas NHS FT to lead this work.

    The Better Care Fund (BCF) was introduced by the Government in June 2013,

    to ensure the transformation & integration of health & social care. It creates a

    local single pooled budget to incentivise the NHS and Local Government to work

    more closely together around people, placing their well-being as the focus of

    health & care services.

  • 28. Procurement and Contract Management Plans

    39

    The chart to the right shows our current plan for

    procurements from January 2016 onwards. This is

    tentative and may be subject to change. We maintain

    details of our procurements on our CCG website.

    Our contracts aim to deliver on the NHS 5 year forward

    view, always promoting prevention, effectiveness,

    improved efficiency/ productivity and our drive for

    continual improvement in patient outcomes. We will

    continue to promote a paperless environment with our

    providers. Our Governing Body (and other committees)

    receive regular detailed reports on activity, finance and

    performance in these contracts.

    We have in-house contracting and procurement teams.

    In addition we buy a range of Commissioning Support

    services to supplement this and ensure that we get

    economies of scale, and professional support services.

    In 2015/16 we have started “testing the market” for these

    services, using the nationally negotiated Lead Provider

    Framework (LPF). The results of this market testing will be known in March 2016.

    In this section we look at the current procurement plans for 2016 onwards (these

    are draft at publication and may be subject to change, plus developments in our

    management of contracts.
