HOSPITAL AND COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE FAMILY HEALTH SERVICES (FHS)

Expenditure on Hospital and Community Healthcare was £653.7m, an increase of £18.2m (2.9%) over 1998/99. Family health practitioners (GPs, Community Pharmacists, Dentists and Opticians) represent the first point of contact with the NHS for most patients. 400 These four groups are each independent, professional contractors who are self-employed and contract with the Health Board to provide specific services to their NHS patients. Their remuneration levels are set on a national basis by the Government, following 350 348.37 Darker Colour Represents 1998/99 326.15 Lighter Colour Represents 1999/2000 consultation with representatives of the relevant professional group. 300 The expenditure on Family Health Services can be analysed as follows: -

Hospital and Community Services represents 71% of all GGHB expenditure, with the equivalent of £722 spent per head of population.

This can be further analysed across service areas as: The other significant change was that the drug cost element of Pharmaceutical expenditure is now part of the cash limited unified budget allocated to the Health Board. These funds are made available to the Primary Care Trust to meet the costs of prescribing expenditure. Hospital and Community Healthcare Expenditure In prior years only the GP Fundholder drug costs were cash limited. The Primary Care Trust therefore has to manage this element within (per head of Population) its overall financial resources. In 1999/00 we spent the equivalent of £270 on family health services for every person within our catchment population:

■ £384 on Acute

■ £156 on Mental Health Services Family Health Services Expenditure (per head of Population) ■ £55 on Community

■ ■ £39 on Continuing Care £148 (54%) on Pharmaceutical Services

This balance is still available to fundholders until 31st March 2001. Any unspent balance at that time will become available to be utilised by the Board. 1998/99 1999/2000 £000’s £000’s £000’s

The financial out-turn for 1999/00 is regarded as satisfactory. The deficit was managed within the Health Improvement Plan forecasts 9,290 Purchasing and Administration 6,665 and will be recovered in 2000/01 to achieve a position of balance. The deficit of £3.2m is arrived at after making a significant increase Other Service Expenditure in the provision for Clinical Negligence claims and the income from receipts on disposal of surplus properties. 191 Local Health Councils 198 The Board achieved the main financial target and remained within the cash limit with £6.1m being available to carry forward 8,956 Other Board Services 11,494 into 2000/01. This was to cover specific projects and expenditure committed in 1999/00 but that will not begin or be completed 9,147 11,692 until 2000/01. Cover is also required for the accrued GP Fundholder savings referred to above. 875,474 Total Revenue Expenditure 916,173 I wish to express my appreciation for the ongoing support of all staff involved in managing the Board’s finances, and in particular those who contribute to the financial planning and monitoring process and the preparation of the Board’s Statutory Annual Accounts.
