Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE B/18/134 Notification of Any Other Business

The Chairman informed that he had received no items of additional business.

B/18/135 Declarations of Interest on Agenda Topics

All GP members declared an interest in items relating to primary care where a potential conflict may arise and also where there are any items concerning the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Provider Arm where GP members’ are minor shareholders. It was noted that no further action was required at this stage and that the Register of Interests is published on the CCG website.

Dr Palin noted that all members of the Executive Management Team (EMT) are conflicted with Paper M, Next steps towards greater collaboration between LLR CCGs. Members of EMT will remain in the room for the discussion; however, will not be voting for this item although will remain in the meeting room.

Mrs Daljit Bains informed that all GPs, with the exception of Dr Richard Palin and Dr Andy Ker, were conflicted in relation to Paper K, Review of clinical roles and responsibilities on the Governing Body, and therefore will be excluded when voting on this paper, however will remain in the meeting room.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE and NOTE the declarations made and the actions agreed.

B/18/136 Minutes of the Meeting Held on Tuesday 10 July 2018 (Paper A)

The following amendments were noted for the minutes of the Governing Body meeting held on 10 July 2018:

Dr Palin apologised to Dr Underwood, for the incorrect salutation being used on the previous set on minutes and noted that Dr Underwood has sent some clarifications on the minutes to Mrs Daljit Bains, which will be included in the final, approved version. This included the following:

• Page 3, item B/18/121 Full Business Case for the Relocation of Level 3 ICU and associated service off the LGH site – bullet point three should state, “urology” not “neurology”. In addition, Dr Underwood advised that within this discussion she had cited the NHS (2018) Planning, assuring and delivering service change for patients in particular that where a proposal for

Page 2 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE substantial service change is made by the provider rather than the commissioner, the 2013 Regulations require the commissioner to undertake the consultation with the local authority on behalf of the provider and that both commissioners and providers need to ensure that they have satisfied their statutory duties to involve and consult. It was noted that Dr Underwood was unconvinced that public consultation has been adequate.

• Page 7 and 8, Finance Report – Ms Donna Enoux raised some corrections to item B/18/122: o Page 7, Second paragraph, second sentence to read: “At month two there is £10.4m of QIPP risk plus £0.8m of co- commissioning cost pressure; £0.6m of running cost expenditure control; £3m of potential pressures from 2017/18 and the EMAS contractual pressure ….”

o Page 7, Third paragraph to be amended to read: “ELR CCG has an activity reserve of £4.8m with a £2m contingency; adding up all the reserves equates to £7m, against a risk of £15m and therefore we are reliant on existing QIPP schemes delivering or new schemes being developed.”

o Page 8, first paragraph, first couple of sentences to read: “Ms Enoux confirmed that the net budget for CHC has been reduced from 2017/18 to 2018/19 and has been set using a forecast as a starting point. The budget has been uplifted by 9% in line with historic growth spends and then reduced down based on QIPP schemes. ELR CCG was an outlier in the CHC spend, however, ….only appropriate packages were being put in place, in ….”

It was RESOLVED to:

• APPROVE the minutes of the meeting held on Tuesday 10 July 2018 SUBJECT to the amendments made.

B/18/137 Matters Arising: Update on Actions from the Meeting held on Tuesday 10 July 2018 (Paper B)

The following action was noted as complete:

• B/18/109 Summary report from the Primary Care Commissioning Committee – this item will be covered by the Paper O on the agenda.

It was RESOLVED to:

Page 3 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE • RECEIVE and NOTE the update on the actions.

B/18/138 To Receive Questions from the Public in relation to items on the agenda

Dr Palin welcomed the members of the public and invited questions from the members of public relating to items on the agenda. There were no questions raised on the agenda items.

It was RESOLVED to:

• NOTE that no questions were raised on agenda items from the public.

B/18/139 Chairman’s Report (Paper C)

Dr Palin presented the report, which provided an overview and update on some of the key constitutional and strategic areas that affect the Governing Body, including meetings attend by Dr Palin since his last report in July 2018. The report was noted.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the Chairman’s Report

B/18/140 Accountable Officer’s Corporate Report (Paper D)

Mrs English drew attention to the following key items from the report:

• Integration Executive and Integration and Finance Performance Group (IFPG) - a proposal to change the remit of these meetings has been discussed with the Local Authority and it is therefore proposed to change these meetings to bi-monthly. The Integration Executive will concentrate on the Better Care Fund agenda, such as Delayed Transfer of Care (DTOCs). The Terms of Reference have been revised to take into account the proposed changes and have since been approved by Leicester City (LC) and West Leicestershire (WL) CCGs and the Local Authority.

The Integration Executive will remain as a sub-group of the Health and Wellbeing Board and will be chaired by a CCG; currently East Leicestershire and Rutland (ELR); however, this will shortly change to WL CCG. The aim is to make it easier to have strategic discussions regarding Finance and Performance. The revised Terms or Reference are attached as appendices.

• Emergency Preparedness, Resilience and Response (EPRR) –

Page 4 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE The annual return on EPRR is due to be submitted to NHS England; Mr Tim Sacks is ELRs EPRR lead and Mr Clive Wood has agreed to become the LLR Lay Member responsible for this area of work.

Ms Enoux asked that the membership list be changed to read ‘Chief Finance Officer’ rather than ‘the finance director’ and also that the role of Chief Strategy and Planning director be corrected to read ‘Chief Performance and Commissioning Director’.

Ms Enoux further noted that the fifth paragraph on Page 6, is hard to understand and asked that this is re-worded.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the Accountable Officer’s Corporate Report. • APPROVE the revised terms of reference and extended remit for the Integration Finance and Performance Group (Appendix 1); and APPROVE the minor amendments to the terms of reference for the Integration Executive (Appendix 2) subject to the amendments raised.

B/18/142 Summary Report from the Financial Turnaround Committee (26 July 2018) (paper F)

Mr Smith took the paper as read and no questions or queries were raised.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the Summary Report from the Financial Turnaround Committee (26 July 2018) B/18/143 Finance Report: Month 3 update (Paper G)

Ms Donna Enoux took the detailed paper as read and highlighted the following items from the summary report:

The summary report shows the month three total, which is reported as break-even; there is still £8m of QIPP risk, when looking at red and amber rated schemes. This is based on the assumption that red rated schemes will deliver only 10%; and amber 40% of their totals.

Ms Enoux confirmed that this is still a massive risk to the CCG and the current list of risks is shown in the table on page two. The main risks to highlight are: acute, CHC, prescribing, running costs, 2017/18 accruals and EMAS but there is an unreleased contingency reserve of £2m and national growth reserve of £4.8m to aid mitigation.

Page 5 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE Dr Nick Glover noted paragraph eight, on page five and queried the figure for University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust (UHL) over- performance of £1.883m, and its relationship to the Independent Sector, which is showing an underspend. Dr Glover asked if the Independent Sector continues to under-perform; if the £1.833m will also reduce. Ms Enoux stated that this could potentially happen; the contract team are currently focussing on the relationship between activity at UHL, independent sector and out of county.

Dr Glover noted that historically Referral to Treatment (RTT) performance has been modest and resulted in unmet needs and additional activity in the system. Following a recent presentation from Mr Simon Pizzey, the team are aiming to direct patients to more appropriate clinics / health care settings, in an effort to reduce costs in this area.

Dr Glover asked if patients sitting on the RTT waiting list could be looked at to see if they could be re-directed to an alternative Simon place for treatment; this would also be of a benefit for patients. Pizzey Mr Pizzey concurred that this was a good idea and noted that if UHL have patients on a 20 week waiting list this could be a good opportunity to look at reducing the lists. Mr Pizzey will take this suggestion forward.

Dr Hilary Fox asked for some more information on CHC. Ms Enoux confirmed that the CHC QIPP is on track to deliver.

Mr Alan Smith reported that the Financial Turnaround Committee noted their concern with the current financial situation; ELR has been looking for QIPP for the past two years and therefore savings are getting harder to find each year. The list of risks, noted, this early in the year is worrying.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the finance report, month 3 update

B/18/144 Corporate Performance Assurance Report (Paper H)

Mr Pizzey took the paper as read and highlighted the following items from the report:

The annual performance assessment result from NHS England, noted that ELR ‘requires improvement’, this was mainly due to the CCGs finances and some elements of performance that require improvement.

All 31 day cancer waits were achieved in May 2018.

Page 6 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE Improving Access to Psychological Therapy (IAPT) performance remains a challenge and a contract notification has been given to the providers.

Referral to Treatment (RTT) is not achieving targets; in May it reached 86.94% against a target of 92%.

Mrs Bland noted the reduction in 12 hour trolley waits, on page six of the report and reported that this was good news for patients and due to UHLs hard work.

Dr Glover expressed concern over the IAPT performance, as NHS England have focussed on this at previous checkpoint meetings; the recovering rate of 64% is acceptable, however, waiting times continue to be a problem. Mrs Karen English confirmed that contract notices have been issued to providers and waiting time initiatives have been put in place; there have been improvements in the past few months. The waiting list is reducing and an action plan is in place to make further improvements. The regional ‘intensive support team’ have been working with the CCGs to help; including trying to change attitudes. Staff are now ensuring that cases are referred upwards, when appropriate and real time data is now available. The team are also looking into what the situation feels like for practices. The main problem with the service; is the number of therapists available.

Dr Glover asked how slots are filled by practices, as he noted this as a problem and GPs do not have any control over this area. Mrs English confirmed that the team are looking at the performance of therapists; however, this information will not be shared or discussed outside of the team. Dr Palin noted that Dr Graham Johnson has previously provided information about slot issues. Dr Ker reported that the number of sessions for patients is being cut and although this will help reduce the waiting times the impact on patients will be significant. Dr Ker does not know why the changes have been put in place.

Mrs English expects that waiting lists will reduce, in line with less sessions being offered; however, how this will affect the recovery rates of patients remains to be seen.

Mr Warwick Kendrick queried the a LLR cancer wait figures for 62 day waits and asked for clarity on the performance levels. Mr Pizzey was unsure and confirmed he would seek clarity from Dr Vivek Varakantam outside of the meeting; however, thought the performance would not be improving.

Mr Sacks left the meeting; Mrs Cheryl Davenport joined the meeting.

Page 7 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE Dr Purohit noted the good news around dementia diagnosis rates; of 67% for June and 67.7% for July. Currently 3125 patients’ over 65 years of age have been diagnosed with dementia; the challenge is the attrition rate and the fact that the population is getting older. The fact that the GP Cost Improvement Programme (CIP) has been fundamental in focussing on Primary Care has enabled the diagnosis rates to continue to improve.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the Corporate Performance Assurance Report

B/18/141 Better Care Fund 2018/19 Plan update (Paper E)

Mrs Davenport reported that the national Better Care Fund (BCF) guidance for 2018/19 was published on 18 July 2018, which meant that possible changes were needed to the expenditure plan; although once checked no changes were required. The contingency and risk pool amounts are shown in paragraph nine. The cost improvement plan has also not changed.

The BCF plan was assessed against the national outcome metrics and a paper presented to the Integration Executive. The DTOC target of 7.88 days, per 100,000 population was not met in May or June, however, did improve from 4.72 to 5.51; the situation is being carefully monitored.

Mr Sacks re-joined the meeting.

The baseline for non-elective admissions has been aligned to the CCG Operational Plan for 2017-19. The BCF guidance states that the local areas can submit revisions to the planned residential admissions metric, if they wish too; and therefore some slight adjustments have been made; these have been agreed with adult social care and the Integration Executive.

The new guidance includes a new section on long term stays, of 21 days or more and therefore this area is being focussed on and discharge plans are being put in place to take the account of this cohort of patients; adult social care are looking into this further with the discharge group.

Due to pre-work taking place, before the guidance was issued, the team did not have a lot of additional work to carry out and confirmation of the changes made will be sent to NHS England by 24 August 2018.

Planning for 2018/19 has commenced, with a session arranged for 24 September with all partners, to look at community services and new

Page 8 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE models of care etc.

Mr Pizzey noted the non-elective target has not been met and the NHS England guidance splits this area into two sections. Providers are being pushed to look at short-term admissions, such as one day admissions and this should be reflected in the paper.

Dr Purohit spoke about paragraph 43 in the paper, noting the 16 interventions developed by the LLR Frailty Working Group. Whilst the group understands the pressure on primary care, the needs of the patient have to be taken into account when looking at resources available.

Mrs Davenport reported that as part of the frailty interventions all areas of care, including community, hospital and primary care will be discussed in detail by the multi-agency group. The wider integrated local team will then carry out testing of the model of care and share learning from the testing. It is hoped to use existing resources, as some interventions should be happening already; however, a query has been raised over if they are being consistently applied.

Mr Sacks confirmed that the primary care team are also looking at frailty in GP practices and are cross-checking the key interventions of the frailty group against the core contract and GP CIP. The vast majority of the interventions are already managed, through care planning. The number of Summary Care Records is high and therefore coding levels appear to be lower than they should be.

Dr Purohit noted that whilst the CCG commissions services for the frail elderly, in practice, communities are not accessing the services available and identifying these patients is important to reduce the pressure on the service.

It was RESOLVED to:

• NOTE the revisions to the BCF plan for 2018/19 following the publication of the operating guidance, per the target for each BCF metric as set out in paragraphs 14 to 33.

• NOTE that the Integration Executive approved the revised metrics at its meeting on 7 August and that the BCF Plan will be submitted to NHS England, in line with the national timetable, by 24 August.

• NOTE the new NHS England / Improvement requirements for long stay patients and the outputs of the LLR frailty work.

Mrs Davenport left the meeting.

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE The meeting was paused at this time for a short break.

B/18/145 Summary report from the Integrated Governance Committee meeting in August 2018 (Paper I)

Mr Kendrick took the paper as read and highlighted the following two items:

• Finance Update - The committee will now receive a regular finance update each month; this is to ensure that the committee has an overview of the financial position, prior to committing any expenditure. • Redirection of Adults form the Emergency Department - The committee agreed this procedure in principle, however, asked for some changes to terminology and queried the tariff.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the Summary report from the Integrated Governance Committee meeting in August 2018

B/18/146 Summary Report form the Audit Committee (1 August 2018) and Annual Report from the Audit Committee Chair (Paper J)

Mr Kendrick noted that the Annual Report from the Audit Committee Chair is attached as an appendix; this has been drafted in line with the Audit Committee Handbook, to show that the Audit Committee has discharged its responsibilities and met its Terms of Reference. The report also confirms that the Committee has the right systems in place to identify risks and review the Board Assurance Framework to ensure that it is fit for purpose. The report further confirms that the Committee has checked that the organisation has no outstanding areas of significant duplication in the system of governance.

The Audit Committee has been proactive in supporting the Executive Management Team in identifying risk and the independence of the external auditors has been confirmed.

Dr Palin formally thanked the Audit Committee for their work over the past 12 months.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the Summary Report form the Audit Committee (1 August 2018) and Annual Report from the Audit Committee Chair

Page 10 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE B/18/147 Review of clinical roles and responsibilities on the Governing Body (Paper K)

Dr Ker noted that the report was a follow up from a previous report to the Governing Body and includes results following consultation with the CCG Member Practices. It was noted that the majority of the CCG Member Practices approved the move to six localities which essentially means splitting Blaby and Lutterworth Locality into two localities: North Blaby, and South Blaby & Lutterworth.

The outcome of the consultation with the Membership also highlighted support for Option 3 as described in the report which related to the focus of the GP Locality Lead role, which was positive as this would include a session dedicated to developing the locality. It was noted that the membership did not support the move to change the term of office for GPs and therefore the tenure remains as three years, following which the CCG will seek expressions of interest as it does at present.

The proposed next steps were detailed on page 12 of the report, along with the recommendations.

Governing Body members who were not conflicted with this item were in agreement and approved the recommendations.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the results of the consultation process with Member Practices; • APPROVE the next steps as outlined in paragraph 26 of the report, and to APPROVE the amendments to the CCG Constitution to reflect the agreement from the member practices.

B/18/148 Locality Chairs’ Report: (Paper I)

Melton, Rutland and Harborough Dr Purohit noted the following items from the report: • Acute Visiting Service – a presentation was well received from Mr Rob Haines, the main item highlighted by the members was the number of rejected referrals. Care homes can no longer directly refer into the service; this was due to be a temporary arrangement, however, has not been reverted back. This means that the service is not responsive for housebound patients. The comments will be fed back to WL CCG as the contract lead. • Primary Care – a presentation was received and covered acute access, extended primary care and the QIPP / CIP funding options for 2018/19. Members felt that the 4%

Page 11 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE reduction was not clearly communicated. Practices are looking to work at scale by changing structures etc and felt that having a clear picture of the potential funding available was Tim Sacks important; alongside how much is recurrent or time limited. • Alzheimer’s Society presentation – the presentation was well received by the members and the service was noted as excellent, however, underutilised. The main reasons for this were noted to be the PRISM form being onerous to complete and the SPA telephone service not being easy to use.

North Blaby Dr Glover noted the following items from the report / locality: • House bound INR patients – work is ongoing with community nurses, to look at blood tests for this cohort of patients. • Governing Body Report - whilst members agreed in principle with the reduction of 4%; however, asked for more clarity around the funding streams and how these are represented in planning. • The MH practitioner post - this post has now been filled and patients are being seen. • MSK – this service (at The Limes and Glenfield Surgery) is working successfully. All referrals have been accepted and funding is being sought to fund additional Physiotherapists.

South Blaby and Lutterworth Dr Glover noted the following items from the report: • Locality Integrated Leadership Team – it was noted that patients discharged from hospital with self-injecting drugs, such as Heparin, cannot have the Community Nurses to carry out this work, as a 12 hour gap is required and this is outside the time that the nurses work and therefore the integrated care system (ICS) is being used, which is not a cost effective use of time. • 4% funding gap – this was discussed and the locality would welcome some clarity on what this means for them. It as • Patient Safety - two patient safety issues were raised in relation to rejected letters; however, no easy solution to resolve the situation was suggested.

Oadby and Wigston In the absence of Dr Varakantam, the report was taken as read.

It was RESOLVED to:

• RECEIVE the Locality Chairs’ Report.

Page 12 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE B/18/149 Next steps towards greater collaboration between the LLR CCGs (Paper M)

Dr Palin noted that this is a follow up paper, to the one brought to Governing Body two months ago and although it is being discussed in the public section of the meeting, all EMT members are conflicted and therefore will not participate in the vote. Dr Palin proposed that a vote is taken later this afternoon at approximately 3:00pm when the Governing Body will reconvene its meeting in public. Dr Palin advised that this will enable the non-conflicted Governing Body members to reflect on the report and vote on the proposals. Members of the public present in the public gallery were invited to join the Governing Body at 3;00pm should they wish to, alternatively if they could not attend and wished to know the outcome to provide Mrs Bains with their contact details and she would inform them of the outcome following the meeting.

Dr Ker noted that the paper follows the CCG not approving the move to a single Accountable Officer in June 2018; the main reasons for this was that there was a lack of detail available on how the model would work; a lack of governance structure; and also a lack of detail about how the proposal would benefit patients.

Although WL and LC CCGs did support the initial paper, it was noted that they still had some concerns.

A joint informal meeting of the three LLR CCGs’ Governing Bodies was held in July 2018 in order for all members to gain a better understanding of the position. Since then the Chairs of the three CCGs have met to discuss a move to more collaborative working and how to follow the national direction. The paper presented today is a result of all of these discussions.

Dr Ker informed that the proposal is that a detailed piece of work is completed in the next 12 weeks to look at the benefits of appointing a single accountable officer and the governance arrangements. An external consultant will be appointed for a short period of time to complete this work and ensure that it is done independently.

It is suggested that the proposal is re-submitted to the Governing Body for consideration in November, with further discussion expected in early 2019. This will also allow for further discussions on a possible legal merger of the organisations.

Dr Palin reported his personal opinions which include further clarity around how the governance of having one Accountable Officer, Chief Nurse and Chief Finance Officer might work; alongside having three CCG Governing Bodies all needing to satisfy their legal requirements. The discussion on potential savings was welcomed and NHS England

Page 13 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE has been clear in directing the CCGs to work through the issues highlighted. Dr Palin is happy with the proposed suggestion for the next three months and is now supportive of the paper and would welcome a final decision being made in November.

Mr Smith asked that clarity is given on how the Audit Committee would work in the future, as this is not clear in the proposals. Mr Smith also asked how the performance report will work; as the CCGs will remain as separate bodies, and therefore how would they can discharge their own responsibilities, with their own management teams and maintain three separate Governing Bodies.

Mr Wood noted paragraph ten in the report, which recommends that an external resources is brought in and welcomed this suggestion, noting that the independent, impartial nature of this post is a positive step; alongside including Managing Directors’ in the discussion to ensure that all local issues / concerns have been addressed. Whilst the idea of a merger needs further discussion, Mr Wood is keen to ensure that the CCG retains localism and does not lose its independence.

Mr Kendrick concurred that the proposal is a logical way to review the benefits, identify risks to staff and patients, whilst ensuring that the best service is still delivered for our patients.

Dr Glover commented that whilst he appreciated that this has been a difficult task and the CCG needs to find a constructive way forward; it is important that the local identity is not lost. The proposal does seem a more coherent way forward to explore what the structure may look like.

Dr Ker thanked colleagues for their comments regarding the appointment of an external person to oversee the next piece of work and suggested that informal meetings will take place with potential appointees, prior to a final decision on the appointment being made. Mrs English concurred that this was a sensible suggestion to ensure that all members of the Governing Body were satisfied with the candidate and also were engaged in the review process.

Dr Palin reminded members that a vote will be taken, by the non- conflicted members when the Governing Body re-convened at approximately 3.00pm. Dr Palin reminded members of the public were welcome to stay for the reconvened meeting, or, if they wished to be informed of the decision outside of the meeting, could provide their contact details to Mrs Bains.

Notes from the meeting re-convened at 3:00pm:

Dr Palin reconvened the meeting in public of the Governing Body to

Page 14 of 17

Paper A East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018 ITEM DISCUSSION LEAD RESPONSIBLE consider this item. The Executive Management Team absented themselves from the discussion. Further to the earlier discussion, it was unanimously agreed to support a further detailed piece of work, in regards to options for future collaboration, to take place over the course of the next 12 weeks. The specific scope of this work includes:

• Gathering information about the experience of other areas. This will include looking for the benefits, if available, of any new arrangement to the system, individual organisations and the patients they represent. • Further analysis of potential management arrangements and how a single accountable officer and management team could interact with, and fulfil their obligations to, individual statutory bodies. • Development of a firm proposal setting out how the governance arrangements of individual organisations and the wider system might evolve over time. This would include examination of existing organisational and collaborative arrangements, and consideration of any further opportunities (or otherwise) to streamline processes through the alignment of meetings and/or committees. • Examination of further opportunities to strengthen collaboration through consideration of the desirability and feasibility of moving towards sharing of some other key governing body posts.

It is proposed that the findings of the above work would be presented back to governing bodies, along with final recommendations, for consideration in November 2018.

It was RESOLVED to:

• APPROVE the scope of the additional work set out in this paper, noting the expected timing of the outcome and recommendations coming back to boards in November 2018.

• APPROVE the inclusion of current managing directors to the existing Joint Executive Steering Group to further strengthen input through their experience and expertise.

• SUPPORT the proposal to bring in dedicated external management resource to provide additional capacity and independence.

• AGREE that a review of long-term configuration options for the CCGs will take place in early 2019, concluding by mid-2019.

Accountable Officer’s Corporate Report Introduction

1. This report sets out to the Governing Body some of the key updates and activities the Executive Management Team (EMT) and I have been involved in since the last meeting of the Governing Body in August 2018.

Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES)

2. The main purpose of the Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES) is to help local, and national, NHS organisations to review their data against the nine WRES indicators and to produce an action plan to improve workplace experiences of Black, Asian and Ethnic Minority (BME) staff. The WRES also places an obligation on NHS organisations to improve BME representation at Board level.

3. In 2014, NHS England and the NHS Equality and Diversity Council agreed action to ensure employees from BME backgrounds have equal access to career opportunities and receive fair treatment in the workplace. The WRES was introduced and implemented as mandatory for NHS trusts in April 2015 and from 1 July 2016, CCGs have been required to publish an annual WRES report and action plan.

4. The WRES is a tool designed for both providers of NHS services (including NHS and independent providers of NHS services) and NHS Commissioners. It can also be applied to national healthcare bodies; many of whom are also implementing and using the WRES.

5. Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) have two roles in relation to the WRES – as commissioners of NHS services and as employers. In both roles their work is shaped by key statutory requirements and policy drivers including those arising from: • The NHS Constitution; • The Equality Act 2010 and the Public Sector Equality Duty; • The NHS standard contract and associated documents; • The CCG Improvement and Assessment Framework.

6. Whilst CCGs as employers are required to commit to the principles of the WRES and apply as much of it as possible to their workforce, they are not required to fully apply the WRES to themselves as some CCG workforces may be too small for the WRES indicators to either work or to comply with the Data Protection Act.

7. As Commissioners, the CCG seeks assurance from providers that they are implementing the WRES and working on their action plans as a part of the contract monitoring process.

Karen English 1 Accountable Officer Paper C East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018 8. To support CCGs with the implementation of the WRES, CCGs should: • Collect data on their workforce; • Carry out data analyses; • Produce an annual report; • Report and action plan publication.

9. The NHS is mandated to show progress against a number of indicators of workforce equality, including a specific indicator to address the low numbers of BME board members across the organisation.

10. Table 1 below shows the nine WRES indicators that NHS organisations have to report against on an annual basis, which are based on existing data sources such as Electronic Staff Records (ESR) and the NHS Staff Survey results:

Table 1 Nine WRES Indicators:

Workforce indicators For each of these four workforce indicators, compare the data for White and BME staff 1. Percentage of staff in each of the AfC Bands 1-9 and VSM (including executive Board members) compared with the percentage of staff in the overall workforce disaggregated by non-clinical and clinical staff. 2. Relative likelihood of staff being appointed from shortlisting across all posts. 3. Relative likelihood of BME staff entering the formal disciplinary process, as measured by entry into a formal disciplinary investigation. Note: This indicator will be based on data from a two year rolling average of the current year and the previous year. 4. Relative likelihood of staff accessing non-mandatory training and CPD. National NHS Staff Survey indicators (or equivalent) For each of the four staff survey indicators, compare the outcomes of the responses for White and BME staff. 5. KF 25. Percentage of staff experiencing harassment, bullying or abuse from patients, relatives or the public in last 12 months. 6. KF 26. Percentage of staff experiencing harassment, bullying or abuse from staff in last 12 months 7. KF 21. Percentage believing that trust provides equal opportunities for career progression or promotion. 8. Q17. In the last 12 months have you personally experienced discrimination at work from any of the following? b) Manager/team leader or other colleagues. Board representation indicator For this indicator, compare the difference for White and BME staff. 9. Percentage difference between the organisations’ Board voting membership and its overall workforce disaggregated by voting membership of the Board and by Executive Membership of the Board.

11. This following provides an update to the Governing Body on the progress made against the WRES action plan since it was last published in August 2017. It also provides the new WRES report for 2017/18 against the nine workforce indicators when compared with the baseline data for 2016/17. The updated WRES

Karen English 2 Accountable Officer Paper C East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018 template and action plan were agreed by the Executive Management Team on 13 August 2018 and will be published shortly after approval by Governing Body in September 2018. All NHS trusts are required to publish their data and WRES action plan by 5 October 2018.

12. The Head of HR and Organisational Development collated the CCG’s information against the nine WRES indicators for 2016-17, which was published with a WRES action plan in early August 2017, following approval by the Governing Body in July 2017. The initial recruitment analysis raised some concerns regarding the relative likelihood of BME applicants being appointed in comparison to white applicants which resulted in a ‘deep dive’ into recruitment data which found a more favourable result for the number of White and BME applicants that were shortlisted and appointed and an updated WRES report was published on 23 August 2017 and the Governing Body updated in September 2017.

13. Since initial publication, the CCG has made progress against the actions listed within the WRES action plan for 2016-17, for which progress has been provided in Table 2 below and under review on an ongoing basis:

Table 2: WRES Action Plan 2016-17 Progress Update Action to be taken Progress so far RAG rated: 1.

Introduce quarterly Quarterly reporting was introduced in 2017/18 GREEN monitoring of the as it was initially thought that the CCG may percentage of White have an issue in the recruitment process. A and BME applicants summary of analysis was included in the who are shortlisted quarterly Workforce Metrics reports submitted and appointed to EMT and IGC during 2017/18.

Overall in 2017/18, there was a 1.2 times greater likelihood of a white applicant being appointed and in 2016/17 this was 1.14. as the difference between the two years is not considered significant it was recommended and agreed by EMT and IGC in July 2018 to cease quarterly reporting and continue the annual reporting of recruitment data in WRES reports.

6. Continue to report Q1 2017/18 data was reported to EMT on GREEN workforce metrics to 07/08/17 and IGC on 05/09/17. EMT and Integrated Q2 data was reported to EMT on 06/11/17 and Governance IGC on 05/12/17. Committee quarterly Q3 data was reported to EMT on 26/02/18 and and annually to the IGC on 06/03/18. Governing Body Q4 data was reported to EMT on 19/06/18 and IGC on 03/07/18.

7. Roll out training to The updated Harassment and Bullying policy GREEN support the new was published on 12/04/17. Bullying and Training was delivered to the Finance, QIPP Harassment policy and Corporate Affairs Team on 03/08/17 as and procedure and part of the 2016/17 SOS Action Plan. local staff opinion A further session was facilitated at the CCGs survey action plans. Time Out on 27/04/18 as part of the 2017/18 SOS Action Plan when it was agreed to roll out training between July and August 2018 to include information regarding the policy update. This was confirmed at Team Brief on 24/05/18 and two workshops were delivered on 24/07 and 01/08.

14. Appendix 1 provides the CCG’s WRES report and action plan for 2017-2018, which was initially completed by the Equality and Inclusion Business Partner at MLCSU.

15. Having compared the results of the WRES information and action plan for the last two consecutive years, the following key areas are highlighted for the Governing Body: • The proportion of BME staff identified within the CCG has remained the same from 2016-17 to 2017-18 (25%);

Karen English 4 Accountable Officer Paper C East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018 • The self reporting of ethnicity has decreased slightly from 2016/17 (99.1%) to 2017/18 (97.1%). However, this is a very high level of self-reporting when compared to other CCGs; • A slightly higher proportion of white applicants were shortlisted and appointed compared to BME applicants. White applicants have a 1.18 times greater likelihood of being appointed compared to BME applicants; • Thirty four members of staff subscribed to programmes or events delivered by the Leadership Academy (EMLA), of which 85% were white and 15% were BME staff; • The percentage of staff experiencing harassment, bullying or abuse from patients, relatives or the public has increased for white staff but remained the same for BME staff. Proportionally, more white staff are now reporting experiencing this kind of harassment, bullying or abuse than BME staff; • The percentage of staff experiencing harassment, bullying or abuse from staff has increased for both white and BME staff; • The percentage of staff believing the CCG provides equal opportunities for career progression / promotion has decreased for both white and BME staff; • The percentage of staff who have personally experienced discrimination at work from their manager/team leader/other colleagues has increased for both white and BME staff; • The percentage difference between the CCGs Board voting membership and its overall workforce has decreased slightly from -6.82% to -6.25%.

16. In light of the above, the following actions have been identified for approval by the Governing Body: a) Continue to develop the recording of non-mandatory training and continued professional development; b) Monitor the impact of the introduction of the TRAC recruitment system to identify any changes in numbers of applicants from difference backgrounds; c) Deliver recruitment and selection training for recruiting managers which incorporates equality, diversity and inclusion issues, and unconscious bias; d) Continue to report an analysis of recruitment activity in the workforce metrics to EMT, IGC and GB on an annual basis; e) Review the need for further training to support the Harassment and Bullying Policy in light of the results of the 2018 Staff Opinion Survey.

17. In relation to the CCG’s commissioner responsibilities, the Corporate Affairs Team has monitored the WRES requirements for providers in relation the NHS Standard Condition of Contract since 2016 and the CCG has been assured that all providers are currently compliant with the WRES obligations.

18. In summary, the WRES is included within contracts for the following service providers: • Continuing Health Care (CHC); • Domiciliary Care; • Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust (LPT); • Out of County (Mental Health); • Out of Hours Service (OOHs); • The Alliance;

Karen English 5 Accountable Officer Paper C East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018 • The Independent Sector; • University Hospitals of Leicester (UHL) NHS Trust.

19. In line with the national NHS standard contract, service providers are required to: • implement the national WRES; and • submit an annual report on progress to the co-ordinating commissioner on progress in implementing the Standard as well as their actions plans, following the identification of any issues.

Competition and Procurement Panel Terms of Reference

20. The Competition and Procurement Panel has undertaken an annual review of its terms of reference to ensure they remain fit for purpose. The three LLR CCGs have established the Competition and Procurement Panel as a joint advisory panel and not a joint committee. This has now been reflected more clearly in the amended version, which is as at Appendix 2. In addition the membership no longer includes a representative from the commissioning support unit (CSU), although a representative is required to be in attendance. For information, if a representative from the CSU were to form part of the membership the CCGs would need to establish the group as a joint committee with appropriate decision making in line with the regulations governing CCG joint committees. The establishment of a joint committee would require a more detailed review and would be considered as part of the wider review of the collaborative arrangements, and hence the group remains a joint advisory panel across the CCGs with no decision making authority.

21. The updated terms of reference are as at Appendix 2 for approval.

PUBLICATIONS

22. Publications and updates published by NHS England via its fortnightly newsletter Bulletin for CCGs can be found at the following http://www.england.nhs.uk/publications/bulletins/bulletin-for-ccgs/. The Executive Management Team undertakes a regular review of the content of the Bulletin and ensure actions are taken accordingly. Assurances and updates are reported through to the Governing Body as evident on the agenda and through updates in the Accountable Officer’s report.

Recommendation The East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body is requested to:

• RECEIVE the report.

• APPROVE the Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES) report and action plan for 2017/18 for publication in September 2018.

• APPROVE the revised terms of reference for the Competiton and Procurement Panel as at Appendix 2.

Future in Mind REPORT TITLE: Children & Young People’s Emotional, Mental Health & Wellbeing Transformation Plan

Implementation Review October 2018 MEETING DATE: 11 September 2018 Elaine Egan Morriss REPORT BY: CAMHS Commissioner / Future in Mind Transformation Programme Lead Chris West SPONSORED BY: Director of Nursing and Quality Elaine Egan Morriss PRESENTER: CAMHS Commissioner / Future in Mind Transformation Programme Lead

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Children and Young People’s Mental Health and Wellbeing National Taskforce (2014) focussed on how to make it easier to access help and support when needed and to improve how children and young people’s mental health services are organised, commissioned and provided. The Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland’s Transformational Plan aims to:- . Develop in partnership with children and young people (C&YP) and key stakeholders . Set out a multi-agency approach to improve mental health and wellbeing in C&YP . Address gaps in current service provision

Our vision is that children & young people will have access to the right help at the right time through all stages of their emotional and mental health development. For this to happen, we have developed a whole system approach to delivering a range of emotional, mental health and wellbeing services that meet all levels of need.

We have engaged with all stakeholders, including education, social care, health, police, housing and justice, and children & young people and their families. We have developed a shared work plan with key priorities, including joint commissioning. We have improved the interfaces between our agencies to reduce fragmentation in commissioning and service delivery so that organisational boundaries are not barriers to care.

Paper D ELR CCG Governing Body Meeting 11 September 2018

We continue to monitor progress and implementation of the Transformation Plan through our monthly Future in Mind Governance Meetings. This presentation is intended to provide an update on our progress this year (2018-19) and our plans for 2019-21.

In 2017-18 we have been focussed on a system-wide ‘children & young people’s emotional, mental health and wellbeing’ pathway.

EQUALITY ANALYSIS Throughout the delivery of the Transformation Plan, consideration has been given to ensure that health inequalities are appropriately identified and addressed. Actions are taken as appropriate through the completion of equality impact assessments. This has included the following criteria within agreed service specifications: • Delivery of services in an anti-discriminatory manner in accordance with the Equality Act 2010 which protects individuals against discrimination on the grounds of age, disability, gender identity, race, pregnancy or maternity, religion or belief, sexual orientation, sex or any other relevant protected characteristic defined under the Equality Act 2010. • Sensitivity and response to the fact that some patients and communities are often the most vulnerable, and might have different expectations of health services, to the majority. In particular, they may have difficulty making or keeping appointments and they might have difficulties making their needs understood. There might also be cultural, practical or social barriers that affect their ability to follow treatment regimes. Challenges might be faced in organising systematic follow-up because of age, mobility, lifestyle, mental health and wellbeing, and practical issues such as transport. • Ensuring that patients, who have information and communication needs arising from their disability, have their needs met by fully implementing the NHS Accessible Information Standard. Guidance and resources for providers can be found at: http://www.england.nhs.uk/ourwork/patients/accessibleinfo-2/ • The provider will ensure that patients whose first language isn’t English and who require a language interpreter will be provided with a suitably qualified interpreter in order that their needs are identified and met. Interpreters should be provided on request and booked in advance of an appointment. In urgent cases arrangements should be made to use a telephone interpreting service. • British Sign Language (BSL) interpreters must be provided on request or where there is an immediate need to communicate with a deaf person. Arrangements should be made where a deaf person may require a BSL interpreter in an urgent medical situation. • Service providers will comply fully with relevant articles of the Human Rights Act 1998. • Service providers will ensure that they engage with and report to the Commissioner on all protected characteristics in respect of who is accessing the service, patient experience, complaints and customer satisfaction as a minimum.

RISK ANALYSIS AND LINK TO BOARD ASSURANCE FRAMEWORK: The content of the report identifies action(s) BAF to be taken / are being taken to mitigate the following corporate risk(s) as identified in BAF the Board Assurance Framework:

Finance Report

Executive Summary

2018/19 Financial Position

1. This report confirms the year to date and forecast position as at July 2018 (Month 4) based on three months of activity information and two months of prescribing data.

2. QIPP monitoring processes during month 4 have confirmed a number of schemes that have slipped or will otherwise not deliver in 2018/19 and therefore further stretch and replacement schemes have been identified to ensure the continued delivery of the full £19.6m QIPP programme. In addition, due to continuing identified cost pressures it has been necessary to release the full 0.5% contingency into month 4.

3. Following the release of the contingency and the identification of a range of additional mitigations, the month 4 forecast is still to deliver a breakeven position but with no further uncommitted reserves to support ongoing pressures, the CCG will need to ensure it can fully deliver the required mitigations if it is to deliver the in year control total.

Risks

4. The principle financial risks facing the CCG in year are as follows;

Risk area Estimated Risk £m SRO Assessed QIPP slippage requiring replacement schemes 3.26 Further PMO assessed QIPP shortfall 3.52 Sub-Total PMO Assessed QIPP Shortfall 6.78

Adjustment for QIPP that is not relied upon within financial forecast * -2.74 Sub-Total potential QIPP impact on forecast 4.04 Potential for acute activity beyond existing forecast and potential for loss on 1.00 activity challenges Potential for in year CHC, S117 and Children’s Complex cases growth 0.30 beyond existing forecast. Potential for in year Prescribing growth and NCSO exceeding forecast levels 0.60

Expenditure control required to deliver current Running Cost forecast 0.15

Potential pressures from 2017/18 accrual settlements 2.85

Potential EMAS Contractual pressure 0.15

Total Gross Risk 2018/19 9.09

2

Paper E East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11th September 2018 *This adjustment relates to QIPPs that are transacted within contracts/budget lines and their delivery or otherwise is therefore reflected in the forecast for that expenditure line.

The CCG continues to support the delivery of existing QIPP schemes, alongside pursuing additional QIPP savings’ opportunities and other cost control measures. However, as we enter the second half of the year, the opportunity for in year impact of further mitigations continues to reduce.

Other Financial Metrics

5. Cash flow – Cash target met for the month.

6. Better Payment Practice Code – continued strong performance in month. All cumulative metrics in excess of 99% compliance

7. CSU Performance – CSU report for month 4 confirms all KPIs achieved and tasks completed to timetables bar two internal deadlines that did not impact on the overall reporting processes.

EAST LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND CLINICAL COMMISSIONING GROUP GOVERNING BODY MEETING 11 September 2018

Detailed Finance Report

Introduction

1. This report provides details of the financial position for East Leicestershire and Rutland Clinical Commissioning Group (ELR CCG) at month 4 of 2018/19, the pressures contained within that position and the risks to the delivery of the CCG’s financial targets for the year.

2018/19 Allocations

1. The overall revenue allocation for ELR CCG at month 4 stands at £429.072m, an increase of £0.576m since month 3 following the receipt of additional allocations to support LD Transformation.

2. The CCG has no identified core capital funding for 2018/19.

3. The allocation is detailed in Appendix A. Included in the allocation is the carry forward from 2017/18 of the CCG cumulative surplus of £2.45m. This is excluded from the in-year allocation of £426.622m shown on Appendix B to show the true in-year position.

Financial Performance

4. The budget statement in Appendix B details the ledger position for 2018/19 as at month 4. Following the identification of further QIPP slippage at month 4, a series of additional stretch schemes have been forecast to ensure the delivery of the full £19.6m programme.

5. As a result of continued pressures on the co-commissioning budget, impact of confirmed 17/18 pressures and 18/19 pressures including the recently confirmed prescribing Category M pricing uplift, the 0.5% contingency reserve of £1.91m has been released in month 4 to support the overall financial position. In addition a further £2.5m of required mitigations have been included in the forecast.

6. Following the application of these mitigations, the CCG is still forecasting the achievement of its in year breakeven target but, as identified in the introduction to this report, is facing significant risks to this delivery. The LLR-wide QIPP PMO continue to operate their Confirm and Challenge process evaluating the deliverability of the QIPP programme and ensure that any further slippage or non delivery is identified at the earliest opportunity to ensure mitigations can be identified.

7. Acute budgets total £213.507m. This includes a reserve of £4.935m, the majority of which (£4.868m) has been created to cover anticipated acute growth not attached to individual contracts and to support the delivery of Referral to Treatment (RTT) waiting time targets. 4

Paper E East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11th September 2018 In aggregate, assuming the delivery of identified stretch QIPP and a range of further mitigations, acute budgets are forecast to underspend by £2.297m. The Acute contracts team is closely monitoring the transfer of acute activity to independent sector providers to ensure the delivery of the planned growth levels and this activity remains a significant area of volatility.

8. The UHL contract value is £143.987m. Based on 3 months’ activity data the forecast continues to show material overspends on Outpatient, Daycase and Non elective activity, and the contract is forecast to overspend by £1.625m. Within this overspend, the element attributed to outpatient procedures is counted as a commitment against the £4.868m reserve identified above.

9. Out of County NHS contracts total £30.369m and in aggregate are forecast to overspend by £0.115m. Within this, the Kettering General Hospital, North West Anglia and Northampton General Trusts are forecast to overspend, largely as a result of overperformance on acute activity lines. The George Elliot, University College London and Cambridgeshire University Hospitals Trusts are forecast to underspend across a range of activity areas. The CCG is analysing the impact of recent trends in elective activity with these providers to ensure the forecast is robust.

10. Independent sector provider contracts total £10.266m and are currently forecast to overspend by £0.284m. Within this, at this relatively early stage in the year there is a significant range of under and overspending contracts within the portfolio and this is being closely monitored against the anticipated growth covered by the £4.868m reserve highlighted above as the majority of this activity is likely to be delivered in the Independent Sector due to capacity limitations within NHS providers.

11. Non acute budgets total £106.484m including for £56.155m for Leicestershire Partnership Trust (LPT). As a result of variability in out of area mental health placements and slippage in QIPP, this contract is forecast to overspend by £0.302m.

12. Continuing Healthcare (CHC) and similar individually commissioned packages of care budgets total £24.934m. As a result of strong QIPP delivery and cost control in this area, these budgets are forecast to underspend by £0.153m.

13. Primary Care budgets for the year total £95.87m.Prescribing elements total £46.621m and are forecasting an aggregate overspend of £1.169m by year end, largely driven by continuing NCSO cost pressures and the recently announced Category M pricing increase. This is, however, still only based on 2 months’ data and therefore will be subject to a level of variability. Further growth in DOACs, NCSOs and Category M beyond the values forecast remains a risk.

14. The CCG has a co-commissioning allocation for the year of £41.834m. £40.809m is shown directly on Appendix B and a further £1.025m relating to the Oadby walk in centre is included within the Primary Care Services total of £8.441m.

15. To plan to deliver the detailed requirements of contract uplifts and funding commitments within the GP 5year forward view has created a base funding gap of approximately £1m. Work is continuing to progress a range of cost control measures that will contribute to closing this gap but the forecast overspend of £0.983m remains the most likely outturn and is needing to be covered by mitigations in other areas.

5

Paper E East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11th September 2018

16. Miscellaneous (inc reserves) represents a range of budgets totalling £1.488m supporting the Commissioning function and £2.669m of identified reserves.

17. These reserves include a contingency reserve of £1.906m (equal to 0.5% of the programme allocation). Due to the pressures highlighted within this paper, this reserve has been released in full in the month 4 position to support overall financial balance.

18. The remaining identified reserves totalling £0.763m include funding to cover the CCG’s anticipated commitment to the national risk share for Charge Exempt Overseas Visitors, an allowance for potential realignment of specialised services activity funding and a number of CCG wide QIPP investments and projected savings not yet allocated to contracts.

19. The forecast underspend on this line comprises £0.118m of overspend on Commissioning support services offset by the £1.906m underspend due to releasing the contingency reserve.

Running Costs

20. Running cost budgets for the year on line 67 total £6.604m. This has deliberately been set £0.31m below the published allocation in order to support front line healthcare budgets. Based on the budget setting of agreed staffing establishments, approximately £0.6m of cost control measures are required to achieve overall balance. Following a number of posts being vacant in the first months of the year the base forecast for the year is approximately £0.3m overspent. A further £0.15m saving from holding vacancies to the end of the calendar year have reduced the forecast overspend to £0.158m.

Capital

21. The CCG had not been allocated any capital in its base plan for 2018-19. Funding is anticipated to support GPIT investments on behalf of NHSE. The resultant assets will be held on the NHSE asset register and are not counted as CCG capital expenditure.

Better Payment Practice Code (BPPC)

22. The BPPC performance for the CCG as at month 4 is shown in Appendix C and confirms continued strong performance across all metrics taking the cumulative performance to the following levels;

• NHS creditors (number) – 99.73% • NHS creditors (value) – 99.97% • Non NHS creditors (number) – 99.75% • Non NHS creditors (value) – 99.92%

6

Paper E East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11th September 2018 CSU Performance

23. The ‘Month End Summary CFO Report’ for month 4 confirms all KPIs achieved and tasks completed to timetables bar two internal deadlines that did not impact on the overall reporting processes.

24. All payroll payovers were made by the deadlines and all control accounts were reconciled and the full reconciliation pack distributed.

25. The payroll deduction for childcare vouchers is flagged as red due to an understated adjustment against an individual staff member’s contributions. This will be resolved in September. The manual payments code is red as it contains one balance from March and one from May and the unidentified receipts code is also red as it contains balances from April and May. Both of these codes are anticipated to be resolved in September. The employee overpayments code is amber as it contains a balance from June that has been resolved in August.

26. The CCG closing cash book balance for month 4 was £0.229m and the closing bank balance was £0.144m. Since its authorisation, the CCG has monitored itself against the initial NHSE requirement to hold no more than 1.25% of their monthly draw down at month end. For July, this target was £0.408m and therefore the CCG has comfortably achieved against its ambition

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement

27. Appendix D contains the balance sheet at 31 March, 30 June and 31 July 2018. Current Assets have remained largely unchanged from the previous year end, the main differences being accruals and prepayments that are largely offsetting and represent the quarterly nature of charging for some services. Prescribing accruals have increased largely as a result of seasonal fluctuations and other accruals has increased as a result of accruals for in year acute overperformance and the payment profile of charges received from local authorities.

28. Appendix E outlines the Cash Flow Statement for ELR CCG for Month 4. The CCG cash flow to month 4 is within £0.699m of a straight 1/12ths profile.

NHSE Reporting

29. The most recent CCG metric return submission covered month 4 finance and month 3 Activity. The return focuses on activity reporting and overall financial profile. The majority of activity points of delivery are within the 2% tolerance level. The summary dashboard within the file is under development by NHSE.

Risks and mitigations

30. As identified in the Executive Summary, there are several risks that have the potential to adversely affect the CCG’s financial position for 2018/19, the main ones are highlighted below:

7

Paper E East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11th September 2018

• Non achievement of QIPP schemes • In year Acute activity beyond current forecasts • In year cost pressures relating to Co-Commissioning • In year cost pressures relating to Running Costs • Potential pressures from 17/18 • Potential EMAS contractual pressure • Delivery of £2.5m of additional mitigations

31. The CCG continues to progress a range of mitigations to offset any cost pressures that may materialise but as highlighted in the summary report, the further we go through the year, the ability to deliver material in year benefits reduces.

Summary

32. The financial position of ELR CCG is reporting an aggregate year to date underspend against plan of £0.013m and a forecast outturn break even position at month 4. There are a number of key risks that have the potential to adversely affect the CCG’s financial position during the financial year and work is on-going to minimise/mitigate these.

Recommendations:

The ELR CCG Governing Body is requested to: Receive for information the contents of the report and the appendices attached Note the breakeven position reported at month 4 along with the risks currently being assessed to the delivery of the breakeven control total.

REPORT TITLE: Performance Report 2018/19

MEETING DATE: 11th September 2018

REPORT BY: Alison Buteux, Performance Manager, (MLCSU)

SPONSORED BY: Karen English, Managing Director, (ELR CCG)

PRESENTER: Paul Gibara, Chief Commissioning and Performance Officer, (ELR CCG)

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This report provides an overview of performance for East Leicestershire & Rutland CCG and LLR where data is available for March/April 2018. It sets out the key performance indicators that the CCG are held to account for. These are detailed in the CCG Improvement & Assessment Framework (IAF) for 2018/19.

The format of the performance report has been reformed to ensure a more effective and consistent service across LLR, whilst meeting ELR CCG requirements. The Integrated Governance Committee approved the changes in July’s meeting.

The Key Organisational Measures demonstrate the following:

As part of the planning round for 2018/19 the A&E four hour wait target is based on the UHL level. This target has achieved April, May and June against the local trajectory. The A&E four hour waits, all UHL and UCCs did not achieve the local trajectory in July (82.3% against 87.5%). The CCG A&E performance for all providers was 78.07%.

The RTT 18 week incompletes target was not achieved (unpublished data) in July (87.10% against 92% target). There were three 52 week waiters (unpublished data) for ELR CCG in July (2 at Spire Healthcare and 1 at Oxford University Hospitals).

Out of 8 cancer targets, 2 achieved target, these were 31 day standard; patients receiving first definitive treatment within 1 month of cancer diagnosis and 31 day for subsequent cancer treatments where the treatment is radiotherapy. 2 weeks for an urgent referral for breast symptoms and both 62 day targets have not achieved targets from April 18 – June 18.

IAPT Performance continues to be challenging and formal contract performance routes are now underway with the provider for ELR CCG. There was a significant improvement in performance for accessing treatment, for April 18 the national data showed performance at 21.5% against 16.4% target. Local data for May and June 18 is currently Paper F ELR CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018 not looking favourable.

RECOMMENDATIONS: The East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body is requested to: receive the contents of the report REPORT SUPPORTS THE FOLLOWING STRATEGIC AIM(S) 2016 – 2017: Transform services and enhance quality  Improve integration of local services  of life for people with long-term between health and social care; and conditions between acute and primary/community care. Improve the quality of care – clinical  Listening to our patients and public –  effectiveness, safety and patient acting on what patients and the public experience tell us. Reduce inequalities in access to  Living within our means using public  healthcare money effectively Implementing key enablers to support the strategic aims (e.g. constitutional and  governance arrangements, communications and patient engagement).

EQUALITY ANALYSIS An Equality Analysis and due regard to the positive general duties of the Equality Act 2010 has not been undertaken in the development of this report as it is judged that it is not proportionate on the basis that the Performance Assurance reporting underpins the commissioning strategy and priorities of the CCG. This completes the due regard required.

RISK ANALYSIS AND LINK TO BOARD ASSURANCE FRAMEWORK: The content of the report identifies BAF 1: ACUTE – The quality of care provided action(s) to be taken / are being by acute providers does not match taken to mitigate the following commissioner’s expectation with respect to corporate risk(s) as identified in the quality and safety. Board Assurance Framework: BAF 2: QUALITY – The quality of care provided by non-acute providers does not match commissioner’s expectation with respect to quality and safety. BAF 8: URGENT CARE – Increased pressure on the Emergency Department which could results in sub-optimal care due to ability to access urgent care services.

EAST LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND CLINICAL COMMISSIONING GROUP INTERGRATED GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE Performance Report September 2018

INTRODUCTION

1. The performance report is the vehicle to ensure that appropriate governance and assurance process is in place for CCGs. In November 17 NHS England refreshed the Improvement and Assessment Framework (IAF) for CCGs for 2018/19.

2. The Better Health and Better Care dashboards within the appendix of this report mirror the format of the new 2018/19 IAF. Previously reported key performance indicators that are not contained within the IAF are also reported in other dashboards in the appendix to ensure full performance reporting.

The report contains performance on; • Improvement & Assessment Framework (Better Health & Better Care) – Appendix A • Constitutional & Other Key Performance Indicators – Appendix B • CCG Quality Premium 2018/19 – Appendix C • LLR Long Waiters Cancer report - Appendix D • Benchmarking Analysis of Cancers detected at stage 1 and 2 – Appendix E

Future Reports will also include; • Out of County Providers (Quarterly) • Better Care Fund (Quarterly) • Outcomes Framework (Bi-Annually)

KEY ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES

3. The Key Organisational Measures demonstrate the following:

As part of the planning round for 2018/19 the A&E four hour wait target is based on the UHL level. This target has achieved April, May and June against the local trajectory. The A&E four hour waits, all UHL and UCCs did not achieve the local trajectory in July (82.3% against 87.5%). The CCG A&E performance for all providers was 78.07%.

CCG IMPROVEMENT AND ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK

Better Health Dashboard

4. This section looks at how the CCG is contributing towards improving the health and wellbeing of its population. Delivery narrative for any ‘at risk’ metrics is outlined below;

Further details are shown in Appendix A. Narrative relates to ‘At risk’ indicators within the Better Health dashboards are:

Indicator LC ELR WL Action in Place % 10-11 classified overweight / obese Diabetes patients who achieved NICE targets Attendance of structured education course Injuries from falls in people A falls and steering group has been established across 65yrs + LLR health and social care. There is a key representation from public health (PH).

A pilot programme is taking place in Leicestershire and Rutland regarding triage and assessment to improve the care and patient pathway.

A postural stability programme has been commissioned for Leicestershire through PH. Cont’d This is essentially a strength and balance prevention programme to support patients.

East Midlands Academic Health Services network (EMAHSN) is piloting a falls prevention programme and currently engaging with CCG practices.

Personal Health Budgets The figures were those for CHC and work is being done to per 100,000 population ensure that all PHBs are included. AMR: Broad spectrum The GPs will undertake an audit for C.diff, as part of the prescribing GP Service Improvement Plan (SIP) which will identify over prescribing of antibiotics. The results are due by the end of the financial year. The cephalosporin, quinolone and co-amoxiclav indicator is part of this audit.

A review of the current practice level data indicates that 11 practices are above the target, one of these was previously below at the start of the year from their baseline prescribing. Although from the baseline data 15 practices have increased the prescribing in this area.

Better Care Dashboard

5. This principally focuses on care redesign, performance of constitutional standards, and outcomes, including key clinical areas. Narrative relates to ‘At risk’ indicators within the Better Care dashboards are:

Indicator LC ELR WL Action in Place Cancers diagnosed at Analysis of this metric is shown in Appendix E. early stage Cancer 62 days of Narrative below, also see Long Waiters Report. referral to treatment Cancer patient experience IAPT Access There are currently a number of admin vacancies, this function is being reviewed by the provider to enable the therapists to use the admin team more effectively which will free some capacity of PWP workers.

Local data indicates that access rates have achieved in April- June this is due to targeted work taking place to improve the position of the 6ww. This has meant that access rates have increased, however commissioners are aware that this increase is not sustainable due to the current number of referrals coming into the system.

A detailed action plan has been produced to cover all areas of improvement within the IAPT service. The commissioner met with the IST, NHSE and the Clinical Network to review this and provided recommendations for areas of improvement. The provider has been asked to provide more SMART actions and to demonstrate the interdependency between actions and milestones to ensure these can be monitored. A draft of this has been shared with a number of IAPT recovery rate NHSE colleagues.

A data cleansing exercise is taking place as the provider has concerns that some of the 6ww are not genuine.

Stress control groups continue to be used to enable multiple patients to be treated at one time. This will be a rolling programme and is compliant with NICE guidelines. This is being communicated via GP news letters in July. EIP 2 week referral LD - reliance on With regards to the CCG TCP numbers, these have been specialist IP care successfully reduced over the past 6/7 months due to the following;

Introduction of regular panel meetings with an LD consultant to review TCP cases where an inpatient has high-functioning ASD and will not require specialist support on discharge. With this regular review, we’ve reduced our numbers significantly in 2018.

The number of admissions has reduced this year, due to LD Outreach now managing the At Risk of Admission Register for Adults with LD in the community who are at risk of admission. This have given the team ownership of the admission avoidance process.

This will also be rolled out to CAMHS Crisis & Adult Mental Health Crisis teams in the near future, but significant training will be required prior to the handover.

Indicator LC ELR WL Action in Place Dementia diagnosis rate A&E admission, transfer, During June & July, UHL have seen high attendances and discharge within 4 hours admissions and the Clinical Decisions Unit (CDU) emergency activity at the Glenfield Hospital remains higher than the same period last year.

Highlighted as major priority for UHL via escalation with NHSE and NHSI. Remains a priority area monitored daily alongside admitted breaches, and evidence demonstrating performance continues to improve however is not meeting the standard. The primary reasons for non-admitted breaches are continually identified as ED processes indicating internal delays to the multiple activities within the service reflecting the demand and capacity imbalance of senior medical staffing in the evening and overnight.

ED staff allocate their time based on clinical need and prioritisation, with majors’ activity high during the month of June.

UHL continues to undertake a series of material actions to address the imbalance and improve performance. Delayed transfers of care per 100,000 population Population use of There is a delay in the published data for this metric. The hospital beds following latest available is for Q3 2017/18.

CT capacity remains a challenge in June.

Additional Endoscopy capacity will start in early August with the introduction of an Endoscopy Fellow, providing an additional 6 sessions per week.

The standard remains at risk for July due to high inpatient demand for radiology and higher than predicted volume of 2ww referrals requiring endoscopy. NHS e-Referral Service GP practices will receive a log of all rejected referrals. (e-RS) Utilisation Communications are on-going with practices. Coverage Practices have raised concerns with expedite letters being rejected and communications have been circulated to all UHL departments to implement robust processes to ensure that this stops. Number of MRSA TBC incidences Number of C.Difficile TBC incidences Ambulance Waits There was significant improvement for Cat 1 and Cat 3 Cat 1 performance at a regional and local level. However, EMAS th Cat 2 only achieved the 90 Percentile standard for LLR for Cat 1, Cat 3 and just missed the standard for Cat 4. This month, West Cat 4 Leicestershire CCG had the best performance for Cat 2 and Ambulance Handovers & Cat 4, East Leicestershire & Rutland CCG had the best Crew Clear performance for Cat 3, whilst Leicester City CCG continues to have the best performance for Cat 1.

Ongoing work continues to improve handover performance;

• Reduced conveyance, by providing frailty training to EMAS staff, and having GPs in EMAS fast response vehicles

• Embedding the new ED Floor Standard Operating Procedures

• Senior leadership on the ED floor (both clinical and managerial) to support ambulance offloading

• Daily SITREP meetings identifying key actions to improve processes

• Real time escalation by duty team to Director on call of all patients that have waited longer than 60 minutes in an ambulance

• Extended opening hours for GPAU to improve flow and stream patients from assessment bay into GPAU.

LRI had the highest number of handovers in the region in June. 62% of the handovers were achieved within 15mins, rising to 93% achieved within 30 minutes. The average pre- handover time increased by 58 seconds to 15 minutes 41 seconds, which was the second-best average clinical handover time in the region. 6

Indicator LC ELR WL Action in Place Cancelled Ops - % of This continues to be non-compliant. This relates to the patients re-admitted within continuation of prioritising cancer, clinically urgent and 52 28 days (UHL) week breach patients. Available capacity to book 28 day breach patients therefore remains limited. NHS 111 - Abandoned The transfer of calls to a clinical advisor (warm transfers and Calls after 30 seconds call backs by urgency) continues to be impacted on this NHS 111 - Abandoned period and has fluctuated below target for some time Calls within 60 seconds however there are signs of significant improvement.

Despite an increase in staffing hours for both Health Advisors and Clinical Advisors for the service there was a negative impact on those available for the rota.

Taking into consideration the levels of all staff available to take all types of calls it is important to note that there is no evidence, to date, in the patient experience reports to suggest that LLR patients are unduly impacted on by these difficulties. However, this will be continually monitored. Children’s wheelchair TBC waits

APPENDIX C Quality Premium 2018/19

It should be noted that 2018/19 reporting is at an early stage with very limited data available. Therefore, reported Expected Quality Premium should not be taken as a meaningful predication until we are closer to having 2018/19 out-turn positions. Emergency Demand Management Section

This new section is not subject to the Constitution Indicators Gateway. Therefore, any payments achieved will be made even if the 2 constitution indicators are below target.

Two months of validated National data is now available;

Indicators - A1 Type 1 A&E and A2 Emergency Admissions with Length of Stay (LOS) = 0. Both indicators need to be on target to achieve the payment of £599,653. Based on June 18 (YTD) data A2 is on target but A1 is not.

Indicator B - Actual number of non-elective admissions with LOS of 1 day or more is not on target, a change from last months position, however this indicator is likely to fluctuate. This is worth £599,653. June was not on target.

Current projected income in this section is therefore £0 at this stage.

Quality Elements

The indicators remain largely unchanged from 2017/18 and are still subject to reduction if Constitution Gateway indicators are below target. There are now 2 such constitution indicators;

• RTT incomplete waiting list which was over target higher in June 2018, therefore not achieving. • Cancer 62 day waits which were not meeting national target as at June 2018.

Current projected income in this section is therefore £0 at this stage.

EAST LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND CLINICAL COMMISSIONING GROUP GOVERNING BODY MEETING 11 September 2018

Assurance Report from the Provider Performance Assurance Group (PPAG) – August 2018 Introduction

1. The purpose of this report is for Provider Performance Assurance Group (PPAG) to provide the Governing Body with a summary of the assurance received from the Contract Leads in relation to performance across the collaborative contracts, and the respective providers’ performance.

2. In addition, the report provides a summary of the items for escalation from PPAG during August 2018 for consideration by the Governing Body, and to ensure that the Governing Body is alerted to emerging risks or issues.

3. PPAG is a meeting held in common consisting of members from across each of the 3 Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland CCGs. PPAG’s role is to:

• Receive assurance and hold to account the Contract Leads; • Advise, make suggestions and recommend actions on provider performance as appropriate; and • Provide onward assurance to the respective Governing Bodies.

Provider review and areas of concern

4. At the meeting in August 2018, PPAG received a report from each of the Contract Leads from across the 3 CCGs. The detailed review on this occasion related to University Hospitals of Leicester (UHL), with a focus on:

• UHL’s performance for Cancelled Operations; and • UHL’s Quality Monitoring and Improvement.

5. This report provides an overview and update on key areas of discussion and highlights issues for escalation from PPAG to the Governing Body.

6. Provider Performance Assurance Group (PPAG) Terms of Reference: PPAG reviewed and agreed amendments to its terms of reference ahead of presenting them to the Governing Body for approval. The updated terms of reference are as appended to this report at Appendix 1 and amendments highlighted throughout the document for ease of reference. The key amendments relate to the membership and quoracy arrangements in relation to the lead officers and lay members, the amendments proposed provides more flexibility to ensure that the group is able to function with a sufficient number of representatives. The Governing Body is asked to approve the terms of reference as at Appendix 1.

Detailed Report from Leicester City CCG: Deep-dive into the University Hospitals of Leicester (UHL) performance for Cancelled Operations and Quality Update.

7. It was reported that following an elective pause in January 2018; UHL made the decision to prospectively cancel cancer operations for the first week in January 2018. As a result a root cause analysis investigation took place to ensure no harm had come to those patients from the action taken. PPAG were assured that no harm had come to the patients and were monitored regularly. In respect of this PPAG requested that a deep-dive was to be undertaken to understand the reasons behind the cancelled operations. Pre-operative assessment needs to be examined.

8. The report highlighted that UHL have missed the cancelled operations standard for the last 2 years with no evidence of significant improvement noted within this timeframe. PPAG noted that rebooking a cancelled operation within 28 days was a significant issue for UHL. The most common reason for UHL cancelling elective cancer patients was noted to be limited capacity in critical care. UHL have been asked to report ‘on the day cancelled cancer patients’ in order that this can be monitored closely.

9. PPAG noted that a recovery plan has been developed which is monitored via the contract technical meetings. Furthermore a desktop exercise is expected to take place which will be looking at elective capacity. Furthermore, it was noted that UHL is being assisted by an external consultant appointment by NHS Improvement.

10. Quality: The quality contracts team have developed a Quality Assurance Framework to ensure that the actions taken by UHL demonstrate safe delivery and high quality care. The report indicated that the current areas where quality concerns and clinical risks have been identified: • Cancer • Patient Safety and learning from incidents • A&E 12 hour trolley breaches • Radiology • Fractured Neck of Femur • Safeguarding and Prevent Training

11. There have been several never events, including two in the same department. PPAG noted that several Never Events had taken place over a period of time; however two similar Never Events had occurred recently within the radiology department within a period of a month. It was reported that these Never Events are currently under investigation. A “Safer Surgery” evaluation to review the outcomes of the safer surgery improvement actions have been implemented by UHL, and PPAG members raised that it was important for UHL to ensure that learning is taking forward from these incidents to prevent never events from occurring.

12. Overall it was reported that the Quality Contracts Team have triangulated the information and the risks have been stratified in order to identify key areas of focus for UHL in 2018/19. PPAG noted that these risks have been discussed with NHS England and NHS Improvement and updates will continue to be provided to the Clinical Quality Review Group (CQRG) and PPAG.

Exception Report from Leicester City CCG:

University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust (UHL)

13. Cancer standards: It was reported that UHL did not deliver the 2ww breast, 31 day surgery standard or 62 day standards in June 2018 however actions are being taken to remedy performance. In addition the late tertiary referrals are also affecting the backlog and account for some of the exceptional long waiters. The main factor impacting on backlog and 62 day performance continues to be emergency pressures and ITU capacity constraints. PPAG were assured that all cancer patients continue to be monitored until they have been treated, In addition the CCG receive position status on these patients on a daily basis.

14. It was reported that a new Chief Operating Officer has commenced in post who is leading on the Cancer Taskforce and recovery plans. Work is also underway with the key stakeholders in respect of reviewing the targeted pathways. In addition cancellations due to theatre capacity are being managed through the Theatre Programme Board’s efficient work stream, focusing on start on time and scheduling. Cancer patients and those over 46 weeks are being prioritised in terms of avoiding a cancellation and any cancellations would require a final approval from the Chief Operating Officer.

15. Referral to Treatment (RTT): PPAG members were informed that there is a risk that the CCGs will fail to meet the core standards in relation to RTT as there are a number specialities with performance concerns. Furthermore there is a risk of patient harm and poor patient experience. A recovery plan has been put in place and a sub-group of the Cancer RTT Board has been formed to have an oversight on identifying whether actions are delivering and or whether further actions are required to recover RTT performance.

Exception report from East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG:

Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) Service (Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust)

16. It was noted that for County contract a number of actions have been identified which have helped to focus the provider on the delivery of the LLR service. Whilst an improvement in performance was seen when a focus was taken on access, there is concern that there is a recent deterioration in performance since this focus has reduced. For City, the performance is improving and progress is being monitored. Waiting time’s performance continues to achieve and recovery rate has improved. Access rates have however reduced due to a drop in monthly referrals and it is hoped a recent promotion of IAPT within Primary Care will help address this. It was reported that NHS England continue to focus on IAPT’s performance and a number of escalation calls are taking place with the Commissioners to ensure key actions are progressing.

Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust (LPT)

Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS)

17. It was reported that the Care Quality Commission (CQC) report published highlighted an overall rating of ‘Requires Improvement with concerns remaining on increasing waiting times and risk management of children waiting for treatment. PPAG noted that progress on CAMHS actions is monitored via the CCG’s Children’s Services subgroup.

18. PPAG members expressed concerns that there are still gaps in medical staffing across CAMHS and Adult Mental Health services which poses a significant concern in regards to the quality of care being potentially compromised. PPAG were informed that assurances are provided via the Clinical Quality Review Group (CQRG) demonstrating that an operational oversight is in place to address areas of concern.

Exception Report from West Leicestershire CCG: (Non- Acute Contracts)

Non-emergency patient transport service (NEPTS) – Thames Ambulance Service Limited (TASL)

19. Performance: It was reported that TASL’s performance declined in June 2018 across many of the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) however it was noted that the call centre performance improved significantly. The performance is not helped by the number of aborted trips related to patient discharge at UHL. The commissioners continue to work closely with the provider to improve performance and safeguard the continuity of provision.

20. PPAG were informed that the commissioners and TASL have devised a comprehensive organisational action plan to encompass the actions required and monthly meetings are taking place to monitor progress against this action plan. This will be subject to detailed review at the next PPAG meeting.

21. Quality: PPAG noted that at the monthly Contracts Performance Notice (CPN) meeting with TASL, it transpired that the commissioners remain unassured on the quality reporting and therefore it has been agreed to escalate the CPN to exception reporting.

22. It was reported that although TASL has established good working relationships with other providers and steady improvement to performance is seen; there remains a level of concern in relation to quality as well as TASL’s long-term financial sustainability.

East Midlands Ambulance Service (EMAS)

23. PPAG were informed that activity had increased significantly in July 2018, which had a detrimental impact on performance against Ambulance Response Programme (ARP) standards. PPAG were made aware that performance is currently being monitored against quarterly trajectories and are expected to meet the target by April 2019.

24. It was reported that in July 2018, EMAS saw a 6% increase in calls compared to June 2018 which impacted on performance for all standards. In addition EMAS did not achieve the improvement trajectory targets except for Category 4.

25. It was reported that handover performance declined at the Leicester Royal Infirmary (LRI) however 51% of handovers were completed within 15 minutes in June 2018, compared to 48% in June 2017. PPAG noted that the Commissioners were informed that the decline in performance was due to increased activity.

26. PPAG was informed that the lead commissioners for the EMAS contract in the East Midlands have undertaken a Quality Assurance assessment at regional level. The assessment provides assurances from a regional wide perspective on patient experience, safety and effectiveness, safeguarding and other quality aspects. It was reported that this provides overall assurances locally and can be triangulated to the locally provided information. This will also be subject to detailed review at the next PPAG meeting.

Personalised Commissioning including Continuing Health Care (CHC) 27. It was reported that under Continuing care for Children and Young people, the CCGs are ahead of plan in respect of: • The requirement to undertake a checklist prior to DST. • The requirement to have an MDT to determine eligibility. - The Continuing Care nurses are coordinating and carrying out DST’s with the Children’s Continuing Care administrator booking appointments. Diana team involvement is sought where appropriate.

28. Furthermore, on a positive note, PPAG members were informed that NHS England have acknowledged the CCGs work in getting the CHC process robust and have requested that they would like to carry out a peer review in the next few months, as a case study for other CCG’s.

REPORT TITLE: Extended Primary Care Procurement - (Improving access to Primary Care and Urgent Care Services in East Leicestershire and Rutland)

MEETING DATE: September 2018

REPORT BY: Paula Vaughan, Deputy Chief Operating Officer Emma Casteleijn, Head of Communications and Public Affairs Chris Lyon, Commissioning Manager

SPONSORED BY: Tim Sacks, Chief Operating Officer Dr Girish Purohit, Locality Board Member

PRESENTER: Paula Vaughan, Deputy Chief Operating Officer

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Since April 2015, East Leicestershire and Rutland Commissioning Group (ELRCCG) has delivered an highly valued Urgent Care service for its patients through a community-based face to face Urgent Care service which supports both patients in receiving care closer to home and the sustainability of general practice.

The service has delivered over 100,000 primary care appointments to ELR patients since its inception providing out of hours care closer to home. The service has also supported over 32,000 non-ELR patients with face to face consultations in the community as an alternative to accessing Acute services and as an essential part of the wider Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR) Urgent Care system.

ELRCCG is planning to change its approach to the commissioning of community- based urgent care. The service is being developed and delivered as part of the CCG’s response to the requirements of the GP 5 Year Forward View and will also provide the ELR out-of-hours community base service as part of the wider LLR

Page 1 of 42

Integrated Urgent Care system.

Significant engagement, consultation and service design work was undertaken between 2012 and 2014 which procured and implemented a new urgent care service from April 2015.

Patient and Care Quality Commission satisfaction with the current urgent care service is high, but confusion remains for some patients where service overlap exists or access routes differ across the CCG. The opportunities to further improve on the current model have been reviewed and appraised over the past year and the CCG plans to build on the current arrangements with further investment into primary care and the reshaping of local urgent care services to improve access to GP practices during opening hours (Acute Access) and to urgent care services when GP practices are closed (Extended Primary Care).

In developing the proposals, the CCG has undertaken clinical and patient involvement. The proposals have been shared with patients, the public and stakeholders and feedback has been analysed and used to shape a final proposed model for the future delivery of services.

This paper summarises the case for change, the engagement process and its findings and presents the recommended final model for procurement of a replacement service from 1 April 2019.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

The East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body is requested to:

 Note the proposed changes to the current service model and the findings of the public engagement on which they are based

 Approve the direction of travel of the revised service model pending final approval at the Confidential Governing Body

 Approve further public engagement to determine the site for the new sixth Urgent Care Centre

Extended Primary Care Procurement - (Improving access to Primary Care and Urgent Care Services in East Leicestershire and Rutland)

1. Introduction

1. Since April 2015, East Leicestershire and Rutland Commissioning Group (ELRCCG) has delivered a highly valued Urgent Care service for its patients through a community- based face to face Urgent Care service which supports both patients in receiving care closer to home and the sustainability of general practice.

2. The service has delivered over 100,000 primary care appointments to ELR patients since its inception providing out of hours care closer to home. The service has also supported over 32,000 non-ELR patients with face to face consultations in the community as an alternative to accessing Acute services and as an essential part of the wider Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR) Urgent Care system.

3. ELRCCG is planning to change its approach to the commissioning of community-based urgent care. The service is being developed and delivered as part of the CCG’s response to the requirements of the GP 5 Year Forward View and will also provide the ELR out-of-hours community base service as part of the wider LLR Integrated Urgent Care system.

4. Significant engagement, consultation and service design work was undertaken between 2012 and 2014 which procured and implemented a new urgent care service from April 2015.

5. Patient and Care Quality Commission satisfaction with the current urgent care service is high, but confusion remains for some patients where service overlap exists or access routes differ across the CCG. The opportunities to further improve on the current model have been reviewed and appraised over the past year and the CCG plans to build on the current arrangements with further investment into primary care and the reshaping of local urgent care services to improve access to GP practices during opening hours (Acute Access) and to urgent care services when GP practices are closed (Extended Primary Care).

6. In developing the proposals, the CCG has undertaken clinical and patient involvement. The proposals have been shared with patients, the public and stakeholders and

5

feedback has been analysed and used to shape a final proposed model for the future delivery of services.

7. This paper summarises the case for change, the engagement process and its findings and presents the recommended final model for procurement of a replacement service from 1 April 2019.

8. To enable the procurement to run within agreed timescales and to enable mobilisation on 1 April 2019, the tender process must commence on 14 September 2018.

2. Local Context

9. The acute (secondary care) elements of the LLR urgent care system are in a period of improvement and continue to struggle to meet targets. To support the necessary improvement of the LLR urgent care system, ELR is committed to providing better core primary and community-based urgent care within its localities.

10.ELR’s scheme to invest in and improve access to core primary care is the Acute Access (AA) scheme. This workstream and investment programme has been made possible by ELR CCG’s commitment of the GP 5 Year Forward View (GP5YFV) funding into core primary care to meet the increase on-the-day and complex care needs of ELR patients.

11. This paper relates to the workstream to improve and re-commission its community- based urgent care service which ELR refers to internally as Extended Primary Care (EPC). These services are currently known to patients as ‘urgent care services’. To avoid confusion this is how the services have been referred to in all public materials relating to the proposed changes. AA covers all in-hours primary care services. EPC services cover out-of-hours primary care services and the Oadby walk-in centre which is open in and out of hours

12.Both AA and EPC have a direct link with the wider LLR urgent care system and are intrinsically linked with other key pieces of work focussing on avoiding unplanned acute admissions, non-essential ED activity, improved patient care and clinical outcomes. AA and EPC require financial and management commitment to ensure delivery for ELR patients and although both have the potential to deliver QIPP for the CCG, the imperative for both schemes must be also looked at in the wider context of delivering better care closer to home for our patients.

13.The key aim of re-procurement of the EPC service is to build on the services and model the CCG already delivers for its patients. However, there is the opportunity to further improve access, provide a more consistent service closer to home, appropriate use of 6

services by patients and develop local ways of incorporating the clinical triage aspects of the LLR urgent care system which have already been successfully introduced.

3. Service Development History

14. In 2013, ELR CCG undertook a review of urgent care (minor injury and minor illness) services to ensure local people were getting the best quality services in an accessible way. The review sought to meet the needs of local people whilst also considering the broader context of the LLR urgent and emergency care system.

15. The aims of the review were to recognise and make recommendations to improve:  The inconsistency in the preceding urgent care services  Patient confusion in the service offer  Variations in use of out-of-hours services  The appropriate use of the acute aspects of the LLR urgent and emergency care system

16. Patients shared their views on how valued local services are particularly their relatively short waiting times and their proximity to patients’ homes. They wanted consistency of opening times, seven day a week services and for services to be delivered from either practices or community hospitals.

17. The review was preceded by a two year period of engagement, public events and a series of press releases. The feedback and intelligence gained over this extensive period gave rise to a number of options on which the CCG consulted. The options were considered in the context of the wider LLR urgent care system and the alternative offers to patients provide by other CCGs in around the extensive peripheries of the CCG (e.g. Grantham, Peterborough, Corby, Kettering, Rugby etc).

18. The review included a Public Health led mapping (November 2013) of ELR patient urgent care use and demand across ELR. Of key note in this report, was the forecast of an aging population for ELR with a growing number affected by long term or complex conditions. This will have two major impacts on ELR in terms of patient need. Firstly, a growing number of patients will need access to GPs and primary care in terms of care planning for complex conditions. Secondly, a growing number of patients are predicted to have a physical disability which will have a direct impact on patient mobility.

19. Transport links were also reviewed and these have not changed considerably in the last four years. Public transport links make travel within localities feasible during the evenings and in most areas on Saturdays, but public travel services are sparse or

7

unavailable on Sundays and Bank Holidays. To that end, a locality based approach to service provision balanced with patient demand was taken.

20. By understanding transport links by area, the preferred locations for service provision were recommended with Oadby and Northfield surgeries the most accessible locations. The inaccessibility of Lutterworth, Thorpe Astley and was considered. The larger rural towns of Market Harborough, Melton Mowbray and Oakham are accessible by public transport at least in the evenings and Saturdays. 21. It is of important note that this original review by Public Health recommended that the best option to offer best access within two miles for the whole population was to provide services in both Oadby and Blaby. However, the Blaby site could have only been provided at the cost of the loss of the Lutterworth site. As this was not an option the CCG wished to pursue given the need for a service in Lutterworth, only the site in Oadby was commissioned.

22. In 2014 ELRCCG consulted the public on changes to improve urgent care services in East Leicestershire and Rutland. Those changes, which received public support, were implemented in April 2015.

23.We receive positive feedback about the services and we are pleased to be offering a number of locality based services for our patients for out of hours primary care and urgent care needs, with choices of care close to home. However, there are still areas we can improve on to make services easier for patients to access, understand and use appropriately which will improve patient experience and clinical outcomes.

4. Current Arrangements and Plans

24. As a result of the work done leading up and including the procurement of the current service in 2014/15, ELR CCG currently commissions two services which both provide primary care out of hours for ELR patients. Both contracts are in place until 31 March 2019 and so the service requires re-procurement for 1 April 2019.

25. One of the current contracts is for a GP led, nurse practitioner provided Urgent Care service which is delivered from four sites; Melton Mowbray, Oakham, Market Harborough and Oadby. The other is for a separate out-of-hours GP service which is delivered from Oakham and Lutterworth.

26. The Urgent Care service is run from 5pm until 9pm Monday to Friday and 9am until 7pm at the weekends and Bank Holidays. The exception to this is Oadby which is open 8am until 9pm Monday to Friday and 8am until 8pm weekends and Bank Holidays. The GP service is open at the weekends only but hours vary between the

8

two sites. The Oadby in-hours service is well utilised by City, East Leicestershire and West Leicestershire patients as well as non-registered patients.

27. The current ELR Urgent Care service can be accessed via ‘walk-in’ or by booked appointment via NHS 111. From September 2018, patients will also be able to access booked appointments to this service via their own practice. The GP service can only be accessed by booking via NHS 111.

28. The Urgent Care service and out-of-hours GP services form part of the ELR Urgent Care offer. Emergency Departments and Urgent Care Centres in neighbouring CCGs (e.g. Loughborough, Corby, Grantham, Lincoln, Rugby and Peterborough) are also commissioned to offer patient choice and accessibility for those who live on the CCG borders.

29. A 24 /7 Urgent Care Visiting Service is commissioned for those patients who require community-based urgent care but who are house-bound.

5. Understanding Patient Flow

30. The current ELR Urgent Care service has been running since April 2015 and the number of patients using this service continues to rise as demonstrated in Figure 1.

The number of patients seen by this service, by site is presented in Figure 2.

31. A user profile analysis of the current ELR Urgent Care services is useful to understand to help shape both the staffing model and in terms of determining any alternations to sites. Figure 3 demonstrates the service user profiles for all ELR Urgent Care services as a total by locality and by age profile.

32 Variations in the population profile using the current service is minimal with the majority of patients being under five and less and 10% of patients using most sites being over 65. This is slightly different in the two localities where an older population in general is found, i.e. Melton Mowbray and Rutland. In these two localities, the percentage of children being seen is the same, but the shift is from the age 18-45 population in the over 65s.

33 From a staffing model perspective and using the assumption that the very young patients are more likely to need to see a GP due to the clinical risk associated with their management, there are no obvious places to direct the more senior clinicians. The most sensible way therefore to approach staffing model planning is from a geographical spread and accessibility perspective.

34 The ELR urgent care sites are used by ELR patients as well as those living outside our CCG area and are an integral part of the wider LLR urgent care system. Figure 4 demonstrates the significant proportion of the activity which is non-ELR. This activity is income generating for the CCG as demonstrated.

35 The vast majority of use by non-ELR patients is at the Oadby site. However, numbers are also significant in the other three sites and are important to the CCG’s commissioning of these services as set out below.

36 The geography and population dispersal of the CCG lends itself to service provision within six localities. However, this can mean services provided for small local populations (e.g. Rutland’s population is less than 40,000) and are potentially therefore at risk of being unsustainable. However, the advantage of providing services which are on both CCG periphery and those which are historically well used opportunistically (e.g. Oadby), is that the associated income makes a number of smaller sites financially viable. Income from other CCGs is essential to the financial viability of so many local urgent care sites and to the locality-based access ELR wishes to provide to its patients.

38 Figure 6 examines flow to Emergency Departments (all including University Hospitals of Leicester) of ELR patients. It is important to examine flow to all Emergency Departments and not just UHL given the high proportion of ELR patients who live on the borders with other CCG areas.

39 Emergency Department use is known to be driven in part by geography as seen by the high use of services by both the North Blaby and Oadby & Wigston localities. However, some areas of the North Blaby locality are twice as far away from UHL’s Emergency Department as Oadby & Wigston and yet use appears to be of a similar rate.

40 The majority of Emergency Department use by patients in Oadby & Wigston and North Blaby localities is UHL Emergency Department. This activity has been analysed both in-hours and out-of-hours in Figure 7.

Figure 7 – UHL ED Activity by ELR Locality, April 2017 to March 2018

41 In hours, the high rate of use by North Blaby is driven by a single practice which has had significant issues during the period of data collection. If this practice is discounted, North Blaby has an in-hour per 1000 population use of ED for minors of 102 patients.

42 Of more significance, is the increase in use per 1000 population out-of-hours compared with in-hours. For the ‘UHL local’ localities (i.e. not Harborough or Rutland), most localities see an approximate 20 patient per 1000 increase. If Kingsway is omitted as before as an anomaly, the increase out-of-hours in North Blaby is an increase of 35 patients per 1000, despite the distance from UHL.

43 This information is an indication of the need for a service within this locality and helps to given a good indication of the potential demand. If the introduction of a North Blaby site could reduce ED flow out-of-hours comparable with that of other ELR localities, the demand from this perspective alone would be 885 patients per year.

44 Over 26% of all out-of-hours activity at the Oadby walk-in centre come from the Blaby and Narborough area practices in the North Blaby locality. This is the locality which does not currently have a site offering primary care out of hours. This means that almost 1600 patients per year have to travel to a neighbouring locality to access out-of- hours care, in some cases this is the same distance or further than travelling to Leicester’s Emergency Department. A new site in North Blaby may mean that a proportion of these patients would choose the new service instead of travelling however, this assumption is not built into the activity modelling as it is speculation at present.

45 Figure 8 demonstrates the current use of ELR’s Urgent Care centre by locality for a year. Unsurprisingly, it is the lowest for the North Blaby locality as a service in the immediate vicinity is not available. It is also notably low for South Blaby and Lutterworth, potentially due to the locality’s service not offering walk-in access.

15

Rutland 2690 37814 71.1

46 If a North Blaby site was introduced and locality activity achieved in line with that of the other large localities, additional demand could represent up to 4500 appointments per year. In total this could mean local North Blaby demand for up to 7000 appointments per year (although there will be an element of double counting in this calculation as some of the current ED patients will be in the additional local demand numbers).

47 It is therefore proposed that a sixth site in the North Blaby locality could be introduced as part of the new service model. The demand calculated is similar to that of both SLAM, Oadby & Wigston and Harborough and so the service provision, opening hours and access policy will be replicated into this new site.

48 A further option is to retain current sites only, but this option does not deliver locality level care (on which the future commissioning of primary care and other key community based care is based) and does not address the proven inequalities of access which currently exist across our CCG.

16

7. Review of Opening Hours

There is currently a 90 minute overlap between core primary care hours (8am to 6.30pm, Monday to Friday) and the opening time of our Urgent Care services in Melton, Oakham and Market Harborough (which open at 5pm).

Figure 9 demonstrates the number and percentage of service users who current use this facility during this weekday evening period. The usage equates to 9 patients per working day across the CCG.

Figure 9 - ELR UC Site Users between 5pm and 6.30pm Weekday Evenings (April 2018 Data)

Market Harborough Melton Mowbray Oakham Total

75 59 43 177 Number of Patients seen before 6.30pm Total Number of Patients Seen in the 352 308 146 806 Evenings % of Patients Seen in the Evenings before 21.3 19.2 29.5 22.0 6.30pm

54 After discussion with both PPGs and practices, a proposal is to remove the overlap to make best use of clinical time. This means that instead of opening at 5pm, out of hours primary care services during the week would open at 6.30pm. They would all remain open in the weekday evenings until 9pm as they do now.

55 The previous work done in 2013/14 indicated that an overlap in hours was advantageous to patients especially if they were finding access to in-hours primary care difficult. However, the CCG has already committed to investing the majority of the GP5YFV funding into AA which will make step change improvements to accessibility to core primary care across the CCG. This additional support into primary care in additional to direct booking into EPC addresses historical access issues.

56 Responding to current feedback from patients that undefined hours are confusing, it is proposed that the current evening hours change from a 5pm to a 6.30pm start. This change has been suggested as a change on which the CCG will engage and will form part of the new service model.

57 At weekends and on Bank Holidays, our data shows that there is low usage of the services by patients during the last two opening hours at the current Urgent Care centres in Melton, Oakham and Market Harborough. The CCG proposes to review with 17

patients, the appropriateness of current opening hours at the weekends. Based on the most recent information (April 2018), this proposal could impact on 11.7% (123) of the patients who use the service at the weekends across the three sites. This is equivalent to 15 patients a day across East Leicestershire and Rutland. The data by service site is provided in Figure 10.

Figure 10 – ELR UC Site Users between 5pm and 7pm Weekend and Bank Holiday Evenings (April 2018 Data)

58 While there is currently low usage of our urgent care services between 5pm and 7pm on weekends and Bank Holidays, we are committed to ensuring alternatives are available for our patients. This will be achieved through our investment in improved access to primary care services during the week and the fact that patients will be able to book weekend and evening appointments via their practices and 111 rather than having to rely on walking-in.

59 For patients who cannot travel to alternative services (i.e. those who are housebound) but who have an urgent care need after 5pm, the CCG already commissions a 24/7 Urgent Care Visiting Service which can be accessed via 111/Clinical Navigation Hub.

60 Changes to the weekday opening hours of the Oadby service are not proposed due to its high use and this would remain open until 8pm. Oadby will also remain open during the day due to the high number of patients who rely on this service for in-hours primary care access (17,339 patients February 2017 to January 2018; 9173 from ELR CCG, 5974 from Leicester City and 2192 patients from other CCGs or who are unregistered with a practice).

18

61 Options to change Oadby’ s opening hours to remove overlap with core general practice have been considered. Partly due to perceived confusion for patients and partly due the cost of double-running services. Oadby is an integral part of the urgent care system for LLR and is used by more than 60 patients in-hours, per day. Any change to this service would have a direct impact on both primary care and Acute services across LLR.

62 However, it is vital to align the service model with that of Acute Access to address both the patient clarity and value for money issues. It is therefore proposed that two changes are made to the services structure. The first is the inclusion of a ‘see and signpost’ additional tariff to the contract, reducing non-urgent ELR patient activity in- hours at Oadby. The second is the inclusion of an appropriately weighted CQUIN within the final Acute Access contracts which correlates the improved access and communication to patients of ELR practices to the flow of patients to alternative in- hours services.

63 Over time, and as these schemes deliver, it may be appropriate to revisit the role of Oadby in-hours and the appropriate business case for change and public consultation exercise would have to be undertaken.

8. Review of Staffing Model

64 Both current services offer access to primary care services, one is GP only and the other is Nurse Practitioner delivered but supported by a GP. With a single provider of all ELR Extended Primary Care services, there is an opportunity to review the primary care staffing model out-of-hours.

65 To ensure the CCG understands the clinical needs of patients accessing the service, a 100 patient, six month clinical audit was carried out to determine the needs of the majority of patients the reasons some patients require GP only care. Over 90% of patient need could be safely and appropriate met by an Advanced Nurse Practitioner as demonstrates in the audit results in Figure 11.

66 The proposed staffing model would see a Prescribing Advanced Nurse Practitioner available at all sites with support from General Practitioners provided from two sites.

9. Summary of Proposed Model (before public engagement)

67 The aim of the new model is to provide improved quality of access to out of hours primary care and urgent care services across the CCG area, to reduce confusion for patients and to integrate booking of out of hours primary care and 111 so patients are booked into the right service first time.

68 Care will be delivered at a CCG locality level. This means all six localities would have an out of hours primary care service offering face to face appointments with a primary care practitioner. Patients would be able to access all six sites by walk-in or booking via 111 or their own practice as in Figure 12.

Figure 12 – Proposed Locality Based Provision of ELR Extended Primary Care Sites

69 All sites would be open in the evenings Monday to Friday and at the weekend and on Bank Holidays with the exception of Lutterworth. This site is currently open weekends only (10am until 4pm). An average of 10 patients are seen each day at the weekend. By changing of access policy for this site to enable walk-in as well as bookable appointments, we believe the use of this site will increase. Patient feedback to date strongly indicates the need for retention of the current service due to the lack of public transport options available in Lutterworth for travel to other locations, especially on a Sunday.

21

70 There will be minimum staffing of one Prescribing Advanced Nurse Practitioner at three sites (Market Harborough, Melton Mowbray and the new Blaby site) supported by GPs operating from three sites (Oakham and Lutterworth at weekends and Oadby seven days per week).

10. Proposals for change prior to public engagement

Please note that the details set out in this section relate to the proposals for change based on initial clinical and patient involvement and formed the basis of public engagement in June and July 2018.

The Contract

71 The commissioning of two separate primary-care based services has led to confusion and access problems for patients. The nurse practitioner service and GP service do not work as a cohesive team across the CCG area due to the contracting arrangements. Both services offer different opening hours and access routes leading to inequity of service across the CCG and confusion for patients. The CCG plans to procure a single Extended Primary Care service to replace the current two contracts from 1 April 2019. The model for this contract will be subject to further public and stakeholder engagement and the findings used to inform any future service specification.

A New Site

72 There are services currently provided in four of the six CCG localities. North Blaby has no locality based service. To address the equality of access issues across the CCG’s significant geography, the CCG has proposed a locality based solution to service provision with the inclusion of a new sixth site in the North Blaby locality.

73 This strategy wold not only improve access for patients and improve care options closer to home, it would also strengthen the direction of travel towards a locality-based solution for key elements of all community services in the future for ELR. If agreed, the future location of this service would be decided with engagement with the public.

Opening Hours & Access Routes

74 Opening hours vary across both current services. To address the resultant inequalities of access across the CCG, where possible and where demand is evident, opening hours we plan to ensure consistency across all sites. The proposed opening hours are different to those currently in place. The CCG plans to engage with the public on potential changes to opening hours during the week and at weekends and on Bank Holidays.

22

A Single EPC Primary Care Team

75 The bringing together of both services offers an opportunity to commission and deliver the staffing model as a single, primary care multi-disciplinary team. The staffing model will also be discussed with patients.

Appropriate Signposting & Booking

76 As mandated by the GP5YFV, out-of-hours primary care services are not just about meeting urgent care needs, but also about providing some elements of on-the-day care to patients who find it difficult to travel to their practice in core hours. The ELR direct booking offer (currently being piloted) will go live for all ELR patients on the 1 September 2018. The key learning from this service development were the complexities associated with balancing access to an additional service with the need to ensure clinical outcomes were not compromised as a result.

77 Appropriate triage has been a key part of the patient pathway booking into out-of- hours services. Appreciating the benefits to patients of access to all parts of the urgent care system, being booked into a service which is not a patient’s own GP for appointments which are likely to lead to complex diagnostic, 2 week wait or secondary care referrals adds inherit risk into our current system. This is also true for patients who require clinical support with a long term or complex condition where continuity of care directly contributes to the likelihood of a patient remaining at home.

78 Triage also enables patients to access other more appropriate services (e.g. pharmacists, emergency social care services), quickly and at the first point of contact.

79 To that end, it is proposed that an element of clinical/appropriate triage is introduced to supplement the current service model to improve outcomes for our most complex patients. This concept is aligned with AA which aims to improve access for complex patients to their own GP. A two tariff model within the contract would enable both types of activity to be accurately recorded and funded.

80 The proposed service structure is summarised in Figure 13:

North Blaby TBC 6.30pm – 9pm 9am – 5pm

11. Clinical engagement

81. ELR CCG is a clinically led organisation and our GP Board members have played an active part in the development of the service model. All practices have also had opportunities to input into the service model to ensure it works for both patients but also to support General Practice across the CCG, continuing to improve access to services for patients.

82. The development of the service specification has been led by an expert clinical reference panel. The clinicians involved in this process are not General Practitioners practising within Leicester, Leicestershire or Rutland or employees of any organisation able to bid for this procurement.

12. Health Overview and Scrutiny

83. The CCG’s proposals and plans for public engagement were presented to the Leicestershire Health Overview and Scrutiny committee on 30 May 2018 and Rutland Health Overview and Scrutiny Panel on 26 June 2018. There was support for the proposals and acknowledgement of the CCG’s plans to carry out public engagement.

The minutes of the meetings can be found here:

The Chairs of both HOSCs have received a verbal update from the CCG since the completion of the public engagement and a copy of the engagement report. Both have have written to the CCG to confirm their support.

13. Listening to the public

84.ELR CCG is committed to meeting our statutory duties for public and patient involvement and to listening to the views of the public to enable us to implement plans which ensure clinically appropriate, high quality and affordable care provision for individuals as close to home as possible.

85.This section details public involvement in development of our proposals, the process we have followed in engaging with the public and the feedback we have received.

Duty to involve – legal responsibilities

86.The law requires NHS bodies to involve members of the public before making decisions on changes to health services. For CCGs section 14Z2 of the NHS Act 2006 applies and requires the CCG to“make arrangements to secure that individuals to whom the services are being or may be provided are involved (whether by being consulted or provided with information or in other ways): (a) in the planning of the commissioning arrangements by the group, (b) in the development and consideration of proposals by the group for changes in the commissioning arrangements where the implementation of the proposals would have an impact on the manner in which the services are delivered to the individuals or the range of health services available to them, and (c) in decisions of the group affecting the operation of the commissioning arrangements where the implementation of the decisions would (if made) have such an impact.”

87.The CCG considered its legal duties in light of the proposals for change and designed an engagement process in line with procurement timelines to enable patients and stakeholders to be involved in development of a future model and for patients, public and stakeholders to contribute their views on the resulting proposals. The engagement was undertaken via a mixture of online, hard copy and face-to-face engagement..

25

88. The CCGs also have legal duties under the Equalities Act 2010. These duties and how we have adhered to them are set out in Appendix B2, Equality Impact Assessment.

14. Overview of engagement process

89. The aim of the process was to ensure the CCG understands patient and stakeholder views influenced the future delivery of services and that the future service specification fully meets local needs.

90. The process followed is summarised below:

 Phase One –discussions with the CCG’s GP localities, Patient Participation Group Network, Healthwatch Rutland and Healthwatch Leicester and Leicestershire to develop and seek feedback and views on proposals and where appropriate, engagement plan and methodology.

 Phase Two – public facing engagement document and survey, use of listening booth, discussions at existing PPG and patient locality groups and engagement with hard to reach groups to ensure we understand the views of those covered by the nine protected characteristics of the Equality Act 2010. Briefings provided for key stakeholders. The views of neighbouring CCGs and key Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland urgent care forums will also be sought. Engagement will be promoted via the media and social media and via existing networks. Public meetings in key locations.

 Phase Three – analysis of engagement used to inform final model and development of service specification. Review of analysis to consider whether the findings of the engagement and any associated changes to the model require further engagement and/or consultation.

Engagement Phase 1 – developing our proposals

91. In developing the proposals for change the CCG:

 held discussions with the CCG’s Patient Participation Group Network (which brings together the Chairs and Deputy Chairs of PPGs from across ELR)  involved Healthwatch Rutland (who have also provided a link to Healthwatch Leicester and Leicestershire) as an active member of the working group who have developed the model  reviewed patient feedback regarding current use of services  reviewed the findings of previous engagement and consultation from 2012- 2014

26

 used the listening booth at Oadby Urgent Care Centre and undertaken surveys at Oakham, Melton Mowbray and Market Harborough to understand views on current services

92. Key themes arising from this work were the need for any model to:  keep our current Minor Injury Unit access sites (Melton Mowbray, Oakham & Market Harborough)  keep and build on the links with 111 services  invest in primary care  simplify services and reduce confusion  clarify ‘in-hours’ and ‘out-of-hours’  improve communication with patients with a focus on what services are available

Phase Two – seeking views on proposals

93. The CCG ran a wider public engagement process from 20 June to 24 July 2018 which consisted of stakeholder, patient and public engagement.

94. The methods employed are summarised below:

 A document outlining the CCG’s plans was made available on the website and in hard copy on request  Details of the plans were posted on a dedicated webpage on the CCG’s website  A questionnaire was made available on the CCG’s website and hard copies were distributed during face to face engagement and were also available on request from the CCG  Face to face conversations took place at six engagement opportunities across East Leicestershire and Rutland using the CCG’s ‘listening booth’  Two public events were held – one in Blaby and one in Oakham  The opportunity for the public to share their views was promoted though communication channels including stakeholder briefings, website, media and social media

Phase Three – engagement response, analysis and consideration of findings

Response

95. The CCG received a good response to the engagement with a total of 775 survey responses and 277 public contacts.

96. While the number of respondents is not statistically significant (as is the case with the majority of public engagement activities), the CCG was pleased to note responses from a good geographical spread across East Leicestershire and Rutland.

27

97. Equalities questions enabled the CCG to determine the reach of the survey to those with protected characteristics (pages 40 – 43, Appendix A1).

Analysis

98. The CCG commissioned independent analysis of the engagement from Arden and GEM Commissioning Support Unit. The analysis provided a thematic review of feedback received during the engagement period.The analysis of the engagement findings is attached at Appendix A1.99. The findings highlighted support for some aspects of the proposals along with some concerns, particularly in relation to the proposed change in opening hours at weekends and on Bank Holidays.

100. The key considerations for the CCG arising from the analysis are as follows (p.5 and 6, Appendix A1):

 Opening hours

While most respondents agreed to the logic behind removing the overlap in the opening hours and felt it would have no impact on them, the written comments show that there is concern from some respondents and these need to be considered.

Weekend and Bank Holiday access after 5pm is also important to a sizeable majority of respondents (60%)

 Locating Urgent Care Centre (UCC) in Blaby

Residents are likely to use an urgent care centre sited in Blaby. However commissioners will need to consider in more detail where in Blaby they site the new UCC.

 Signposting to alternative services

Respondents understand the importance of being seen by the most appropriate healthcare professional/service. However, there were concerns about being signposted elsewhere if attending a UCC. Concerns centres on:

 Transport  Older people and children  Distance to travel  Appropriate triage  Time delay to treatment  Concern that people may be referred on unnecessarily.

In addition, many respondents were particularly concerned about the impact on older patients and children. While others felt that if they had made the effort to attend a UCC, which is where they should be seen and possibly treated.

 Future of out of hours services

28

Commissioners will need to allay respondents' anxiety with regard to their perceived loss of urgent care services. This was particularly evident among residents of Lutterworth but was also mentioned in other areas. Their concern highlights the importance of ensuring robust communication around urgent care services so that residents are clear about what is available, when and where.

When planning the next steps for urgent care, commissioners could also consider expanding what is available to include, for example, mental health, sexual health services and home visits for older people.

101. Additional independent analysis was also commissioned from Leicestershire County Council to consider the findings in respect of proposals for a new site in the area by postcode. This analysis is attached at Appendix A2.

15 Consideration of engagement findings

102. The CCG convened an Engagement Review Panel with representatives from the project group including Healthwatch Rutland (also on behalf of Healthwatch Leicester and Leicestershire), a practice manager, GP, commissioning representatives, communications and engagement lead and corporate governance lead.

103. The group considered the engagement findings (summary report and appendices containing all verbatim comments received in response to the survey questions) via a mixture of a face to face meeting and virtual discussion. The views of the group were then used to shape recommended next steps in relation to the proposed change. This included identification of any further requirements for engagement and/or consultation. Figure 15 summarises the CCG’s response to the engagement findings taking into consideration the views of the panel:

Paper I ELR CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018 104. A paper detailing a revised model based on the findings of the public engagement, was considered at the CCG’s Integrated Governance Committee on 5th September 2018 along with the engagement analysis report, including full verbatim comments from the public. The Committee supported the proposals, noting the findings of the engagement on which they were based.

105. A summary of the recommended changes along with the engagement findings was presented to the CCG’s PPG Network meeting on 4 September 2018 where further consideration of public feedback and the proposed changes took place.

106. At this event, feedback was offered on both the engagement process and the revised, final service model.

107. Questions were asked about the engagement process focussing on the timescales used, the validity of the assessment of the response being “good” and how the CCG has used both the quantitative and the qualitative data to recommend changes to the proposed service model. The CCG’s responses to these queries were well received and attendees were assured by the CCG’s use of the qualitative information in particular to understand what would and would not work for patients.

108. The event attendees were supportive of the revised proposed service model. The potential service gap between 5pm and 6.30pm was addressed and the CCG explained the strategies associated with resolving these for EPC mobilisation (e.g. Acute Access) by 1 April 2019. The attendees also offered feedback to the CCG on the two potential sites for the new Blaby Urgent Care Centre and additional local intelligence to consider when making the final decision.

16 Revisiting the Equalities Impact Assessment

109. As part of the ongoing review of the proposals the original Equality Impact Assessment and Quality Impact Assessment was reviewed during August 2018. The initial assessments were completed during June 2018 (Appendix B1).

110. As a result of the patient engagement exercise and feedback received, together with comments received through the internal working party convened to develop the proposal and associated specification, the EIA and QIA were adjusted to take into account these comments. The assessments have been enhanced through additional focus within the age and deprivation sections and are found in Appendix B2.

17 Final Proposed Model Following Public Engagement

The Contract

111. The commissioning of two separate primary-care based services has led to confusion and access problems for patients. The nurse practitioner service and GP service do not work as a cohesive team across the CCG area due to the contracting arrangements. Both services offer different opening hours and access routes leading to inequity of service across the CCG and confusion for patients. The CCG has therefore made the decision to procure a single Extended Primary Care service to replace the current two contracts from 1 April 2019. The model for this contract has been subject to public and stakeholder engagement and the findings have been used to shape the service specification.

A New Site

112. As referenced above the residents of the CCG localities of North Blaby and South Blaby & Lutterworth have supported the proposal for an additional site in the Blaby area. In practical terms there are four options to consider both in terms of pre-existing health premises or District Council premises suggested by Blaby DC. Feedback from the public engagement, both from completed questionnaires and from Blaby District Council has identified:

 A large practice in Narborough;  Narborough Health Centre, Thornton Drive, Narborough;  Blaby District Council Offices, Desford Road, Narborough;  Enderby Leisure Centre, Mill Lane, Enderby.

The engagement asked for views on what the public thought were key priorities when considering the new Blaby area site.

Figure 16 appraises the four options available for the new site.

Page 37 of 42

Paper I ELR CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018 113. Of the above four options the Blaby District Council offices can be discounted. This is principally due to availability as the Council building is closed during the hours required both in the evenings and at weekends. Of the two health premises, The large practice in Narborough did not volunteer their premises during a locality meeting where this was discussed. The practice has, however, been included the option appraisal for indicative purposes. Narborough Health Centre is still used during the day for clinics and, out of hours, would be an isolated location for staff to be based in. Enderby Leisure Centre offers a suitable environment that could be made compliant for patient services. The availability of Enderby Leisure Centre, however, cannot be confirmed prior to the end of September due to Blaby District Council being within a procurement exercise for their leisure services.

114. Whilst it is possible to rule out both Blaby DC offices (closed during the required hours) and the large Narborough practice (practice unwilling to participate at this point) it is not possible to recommend a preferred site before October. However, the two sites available are:  Narborough Health Centre is a current health facility but is isolated out of hours.  Enderby Leisure Centre is not a health facility currently but Blaby DC have a vision for daytime health promotion services (weight management, diabetes, smoking cessation, etc.) and are keen to encompass the urgent care centre into their plans. Blaby DC are currently in the process of re-procuring their Leisure Services and are keen to build this into their specification.

115. Further analysis and work with potential partners is required for both of these sites, along with further public engagement prior to any final decision.

Opening Hours & Access Routes

116. Opening hours vary across both current services. To address the resultant inequalities of access across the CCG, where possible and where demand is evident, we plan to ensure consistency of opening hours across all sites. The proposed opening hours are different to those currently in place. The CCG has engaged with the public on what the right opening hours will be.

117. The feedback from public engagement, and subsequent views of the Engagement Review Panel, can be examined in two parts:

 Adjustment to the opening times during weekdays such that the Urgent Care Centres open at 6.30pm removing the 5pm to 6.30pm overlap. The CCG has carefully considered public views on this change and believes concerns raised about access to GP practices during these times will be addressed via investment into improved ‘in hours’ under Acute Access proposals which will require all Page 38 of 42

practices to remain open until 6.30pm and to ensure services are available to address the needs of patients until this time. The CCG proposes therefore to continue with this change.

 Adjustment of weekend and bank holiday opening from 7pm closure to 5pm closure. The CCG has carefully considered feedback from the public through the engagement which indicated the potential for negative impact on patients and service users if this change were to be enacted. Given the level of public concern and the lack of other alternative services in localities during these times, the CCG is, therefore, proposing that the current opening hours (9am to 7pm) at Market Harborough, Melton Mowbray and Oakham remain unchanged. The current arrangements will also remain unchanged in Oadby. The Urgent Care Centre in Lutterworth and the new site in the Blaby area will adopt the standardised opening times of 9am to 7pm at weekends and on Bank Holidays

A Single EPC Primary Care Team

118. The bringing together of both services offers an opportunity to commission and deliver the staffing model as a single, primary care multi-disciplinary team. The staffing model has been discussed with patients and service users through the public engagement process. While most people were supportive of seeing the most appropriate professional for their needs, concerns were expressed about perceived reduction in access to GPs or a ‘downgrading’ of the service. The proposed staffing changes integrate teams into one service and will not reduce change access to GPs or nurses (who will remain based at current sites). The CCG therefore proposes to proceed with this change. .

Appropriate Signposting & Booking

119. As mandated by the GP5YFV, out-of-hours primary care services are not just about meeting urgent care needs, but also about providing some elements of on-the-day care to patients who find it difficult to travel to their practice in core hours. The ELR direct booking offer (piloted during June and July 2018) will go live for all ELR patients on the 1 October 2018. The key learning from this service development were:

 The complexities associated with balancing access to an additional service with the need to ensure clinical outcomes were not compromised as a result;  The reticence on the part of patients to utilise a service run by nursing staff;  The reluctance of patents to travel;  Difficulties with the tested booking system.

The above have been built into the interim service from 1 September and also into the specification for the proposed contract from 1 April 2019. Specifically, the out of hours

39 appointments will be available with GPs, the booking system will be via telephone and the GP locations will be used for the out of hours appointments.

120. Appropriate triage has been a key part of the patient pathway booking into out-of- hours services. Appreciating the benefits to patients of access to all parts of the urgent care system, being booked into a service which is not a patient’s own GP for appointments which are likely to lead to complex diagnostic, two week wait or secondary care referrals adds inherit risk into our current system. This is also true for patients who require clinical support with a long term or complex condition where continuity of care directly contributes to the likelihood of a patient remaining at home. Triage will enable patients to be seen in order of clinical priority at the Urgent Care Centre they have accessed or to be referred to other more appropriate services (e.g. pharmacists, emergency social care services), quickly and at the first point of contact through appropriate, re-direction and appointment facilitation.

121. To that end, it is proposed that an element of clinical/appropriate triage is introduced as part of the new contract to supplement the current service model to improve outcomes for our most complex patients. This concept is aligned with AA which aims to improve access for complex patients to their own GP. A two tariff model within the contract would enable both types of activity to be accurately recorded and funded.

122. Triage/clinical assessment is particularly relevant to Oadby in-hours as early assessment and facilitated re-direction and signposting into their own practice where the presenting condition is best managed by their own GP. It is envisaged that this re- direction into general practice will be facilitated by the making of an appointment so the patient leaves with an outcome. Other potential signposting outcomes are escalation to higher levels of urgent care including ED, direction to pharmacy services and advice on general health and wellbeing. Out of hours will require similar signposting if the patient is inappropriate for the services offered within the UCC. However, the guiding principle is that the patient is seen and treated in order of clinical priority at the Urgent Care Centre they have accessed if this is appropriate for their needs, or re-directed and signposted to the most appropriate provider with, where possible, an appointment or directions and advice if this is the most appropriate outcome for their needs

The proposed service model is summarised in Figure 17.

Recommendations

124. The East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body is requested to:

 Note the proposed changes to the current service model and the findings of the public engagement on which they are based

 Approve the direction of travel of the revised service model pending final approval at the Confidential Governing Body

 Approve further public engagement to determine the site for the new sixth Urgent Care Centre

1. Executive Summary:

1.1 Introduction

In 2014 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG consulted the public on changes to improve urgent care services in East Leicestershire and Rutland. Those changes, which received public support, were implemented in April 2015.

The CCG receives positive feedback about the services which offer a number of locality based services for patients for out of hours primary care and urgent care needs, with choices of care close to home.

The contracts put in place to support the model agreed after consultation are due to end in March 2019 and the CCG is keen to ensure that the services available to patients still meet public needs while providing high quality, cost effective care.

Following initial review work including conversations with patients, the CCG identified opportunities to enhance what is currently available with some investment and changes to the existing model of care.

In June and July 2018, NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG undertook an engagement process with stakeholders, patients and the public to understand views on proposed changes.

1.2 The process

The engagement process ran from 20 June to 24 July 2018 and consisted of stakeholder, patient and public engagement. Engagement methods employed:

 Communication channels including stakeholder briefings, website, media and a digital approach  Survey - a questionnaire was made available on the website and hard copies were distributed during face to face engagement and also available on request. This resulted in the completion of 775 questionnaires  Face to face conversations took place at six engagement opportunities using the ‘listening booth’ and two public events were held. This resulted in 277 patient and public contacts  Plans were presented to the Leicestershire Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee and Rutland Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee.

1.3 Questionnaire response

775 people completed the questionnaire (Appendix A) between 20 June and 24 July 2018 (the number of respondents per question varies). The full details on answers to the questions are available in the main report:

 Most respondents said they understood which service to use for their urgent care need (43.08% agreed and 39.82% strongly agreed)  Over 98% of respondents had heard of NHS111  83.29% of respondents were aware they could access advice, and/or treatment from a healthcare professional at NHS111  The majority of respondents (59.30% agreed and 32.17% strongly agreed) were happy to see an alternative healthcare professional for their urgent care need if their own Practice was closed

Page | 3 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

 The majority of respondents agreed that opening urgent care centres (apart from Oadby where no change is proposed to opening hours) on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm would avoid the existing confusion (39.10% indicated that they agreed and 26.84% of respondents strongly agreed)  People were asked if the impact on removing the overlap in opening hours would have a positive, negative or no impact on them. 50.33% of people said this would have no impact on them, 30.7% of people said it would have a negative impact on them  People were given the opportunity to express their views on removing the overlap in hours in written comments and in doing so 391 people shared their feedback. Some concerns were expressed which included: o By removing the overlap of opening hours some patients felt they would have less choice in where to go o Access was a concern for many patients with some highlighting that their GP practice cannot see any patient after 5pm o Respondents felt that travel time and distance should be considered o Some people felt a decision to remove the overlap of opening hours would mean a loss of service o Confidence in healthcare professionals at a Urgent Care centre as opposed to a GP practice was highlighted o Although the overlap of hours was welcomed by some, it was felt that suitable alternative provision for urgent care needs to be in place.

Please see detail in the full section of the report.

 If the opening hours were changed at bank holidays and weekends to between 9am and 5pm, 46.93% of respondents felt there would be no impact on them; however, 38.69% of respondents felt the impact on them would be negative. The opportunity was given for respondents to leave written comments. Although most people had said they felt they would experience no impact, the written comments relay some people’s concerns, these included: o Concerns about urgent care needs arising outside the proposed hours o Further travel necessitated by reduced opening hours o Growing demands on healthcare impacting on reduced opening hours  63.1% of respondents felt it was very important for them to have access to an urgent care centre after 5pm on bank holidays and at weekends. In the written comments people expressed views including concern that if the service was reduced at bank holidays and weekends it would lead to further pressure on A and E services. The comments indicate that weekend and bank holiday services are viewed to be extremely important to those with young children and the elderly, and that patients need to have confidence that urgent care services were there when they needed them  When asked how likely respondents were to use an urgent care centre in the Blaby district 44.43% of people said they were likely to some extent to use an urgent care centre in Blaby. 43.91% of respondents indicated they were not likely to use the centre  When asked to consider factors that would be important to them about the location of the urgent care centre in the Blaby district area, 42.8% (the highest number of respondents) felt that parking was very important. More detail on other factors is available in the main report  People were asked if there was anything else they considered to be important in the location of a centre in the Blaby district area. This question was answered by 427 respondents: o 108 respondents highlighted what was important to them when considering the location of a service in the Blaby district area (please see detail in the main section of the report)

Page | 4 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

o 155 respondents made other comments which included distance to travel; there are comments from respondents living outside Blaby district who remark on the relevance to them of this question, and comments relating to Lutterworth, Market Harborough and Oakham (please see the full detail in the questionnaire section of the report) o 101 respondents suggested a single location for an urgent care centre to be in the Blaby district area  68.96% of people strongly agreed that being seen by the most appropriate healthcare professional in the right place for their needs was important to them. The second highest score was those who agreed (27.53%)  Most people indicated their support to being signposted to another service or booked an appointment somewhere else if this was the most appropriate way to treat their needs (29.73% strongly agreed and 40.16% agreed)  In the written comments to the question on signposting, the reasons some people gave for agreeing with being signposted appropriately was they felt it would lead to a more efficient urgent care service and better use of resources. However, the majority of people indicated that they would want certain possible outcomes of signposting on to be considered. These included: o Transport o Older people and children o Distance to travel o Appropriate triage o Time delay to treatment o Concern that people may be referred on unnecessarily.

The comments on signposting also gave reasons why people did not agree with a signposting system, most people making these comments felt that if they had chosen to attend an urgent care service, they expected to be treated there. Full details are in the main section of the report.

 When asked if there was anything respondents would like to be considered in plans for the future of out-of-hours services in East Leicestershire and Rutland, the following themes were apparent in the comments: o Appreciation of urgent care services and the on-going need for such services o Anxiety about a perceived loss of local urgent care centres, the most concern came from Lutterworth but other areas were also mentioned o The availability of GP appointments o The opening hours for urgent care services o Service provision to be considered as part of the urgent care service, such as mental health, sexual health services and home visits for the older people o The need for communication and publication of urgent care services.

Full details are given in the main section on questionnaire responses in the report.

1.4 Key points for consideration

The survey attracted a high number of respondents (775), suggesting a high level of local interest.

Opening hours

While most respondents agreed to the logic behind removing the overlap in the opening hours and felt it would have no impact on them, the written comments show that there is concern from some respondents and these need to be considered.

Page | 5 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

Weekend and Bank Holiday access after 5pm is also important to a sizeable majority of respondents (60%)

Locating Urgent Care Centre (UCC) in Blaby

Residents are likely to use an urgent care centre sited in Blaby. However commissioners will need to consider in more detail where in Blaby they site the new UCC.

Signposting to alternative services

Respondents understand the importance of being seen by the most appropriate healthcare professional/service. However, there were concerns about being signposted elsewhere if attending a UCC. Concerns centres on:

 Transport  Older people and children  Distance to travel  Appropriate triage  Time delay to treatment  Concern that people may be referred on unnecessarily.

In addition, many respondents were particularly concerned about the impact on older patients and children. While others felt that if they had made the effort to attend a UCC, which is where they should be seen and possibly treated.

Future of out of hours services

Commissioners will need to allay respondents' anxiety with regard to their perceived loss of urgent care services. This was particularly evident among residents of Lutterworth but was also mentioned in other areas. Their concern highlights the importance of ensuring robust communication around urgent care services so that residents are clear about what is available, when and where.

When planning the next steps for urgent care, commissioners could also consider expanding what is available to include, for example, mental health, sexual health services and home visits for older people.

1.5 Recommendations

It is recommended that all feedback from the questionnaires, events and meetings is taken into consideration before a final decision is made. All supporting documents have been attached as appendices and include the additional comments made by patients, members of the public and voluntary groups throughout the engagement.

2. Introduction

In 2014 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG consulted the public on changes to improve urgent care services in East Leicestershire and Rutland. Those changes, which received public support, were implemented in April 2015. The CCG received positive feedback about the services which offer a number of locality based services for patients for out of hours primary care and urgent care needs, with choices of care close to home.

The contracts put in place to support the model agreed after consultation are due to end in March 2019 and the CCG is keen to ensure that the services available to patients still meet public needs while providing high quality, cost effective care.

Following initial review work including conversations with patients, the CCG identified opportunities to enhance what is currently available with some investment and changes to the existing model of care.

In June and July 2018, NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG undertook an engagement process with stakeholders, patients and the public to understand views on proposed changes.

2.1 Information to be explored during the engagement process

Following initial review work which included conversations with patients, it was identified that current urgent care services may benefit from enhancement via investment and changes to the existing model of service provision.

The CCG worked with representatives from GP practice Patient Participation Groups to understand what is important for our patients to help shape the proposals for change. An engagement process was then designed to enable the CCG to further understand the views of stakeholders, patients and the public on the following:

 Procurement of a combined out of hours GP and urgent care service  Some changes to opening hours and staffing models at existing services to reflect patient usage and need  Introduction of clinical triage to ensure patients receive the right treatment quickly  The opening of an additional site in one of the CCG localities to offer urgent care services where they don’t currently exist.

Page | 7 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

3. The process

The engagement process consisted of stakeholder, patient and public engagement involving:

 Communication channels via stakeholder briefings, website, media and a digital approach  Survey - a questionnaire was made available on the website and hard copies were distributed during face to face engagement and were available in paper copy and other formats/languages on request from the CCG  Face to face conversations took place with the use of the CCG’s listening booth at six locations across East Leicestershire and Rutland  Two public events were held where participants could learn more about the proposals, ask questions and share their views  Conversations with patient participation group members  Stakeholder engagement included meetings with the Leicestershire Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee and Rutland Adults and Health Scrutiny Panel.

Details of the engagement activity are set out in the table below and throughout this section.

3.3 Face to face engagement

The Listening booth was used at six locations across East Leicestershire and Rutland: Uppingham Market, Melton Mowbray Market, Gates Garden Centre, Somerby, Lutterworth Market, Market Harborough Leisure Centre and Parklands Leisure Centre Oadby.

Two pubic information and engagement events took place during the engagement period, at Brockington College and VAR Rutland Community Hub.

In addition, information about the engagement was taken to meetings, discussed with PPG members and publicised on the CCG website.

Printed copies of the survey and supporting information were also made available at all events and meetings.

3.4 Media

 One media release sent out publicising the engagement and offered interviews with the Clinical Vice-Chair, Dr Andy Ker - 20 July 2018: Patients asked to share views on out-of-hours healthcare services (Appendix D)  This resulted in radio coverage on Rutland Radio on 21 July 2018  Local media coverage in Leicester Mercury, Melton Times, Rutland Times and Harborough Mail.

3.5 Websites

The CCG set up a dedicated webpage to publicise the engagement which received 1,286 page views and 1,094 unique page views. A second webpage detailing the press release was also set up which received 228 page views and 208 unique page views.

Throughout the five-week engagement period a graphic was also displayed on the homepage of the CCG website to signpost users to the main webpage and to encourage them to complete the survey.

Page | 9 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

3.6 Social Media

 A total of 12 facebook posts and 48 tweets were sent out by East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG during the engagement period  21,304 opportunities allowed for individuals to see tweets and 20,030 opportunities to see Facebook posts within this period  103 people clicked through to the webpage from Twitter  309 people clicked through to the webpage from Facebook.

During the engagement period, information was posted on Facebook at times that would enable people who may not access social media during normal working hours to share their views via the survey.

A digital communications toolkit was also produced and sent to all stakeholders to help them to promote the survey. The toolkit included a website article, localised social media graphics and suggested social media posts.

4. Responses from organisations and other correspondence

A report on the proposed changes was shared with the Leicestershire Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee (30 May 2018) and Rutland Health Overview and Scrutiny Panel (28 June 2018).

The purpose of the report was to provide information about East Leicestershire and Rutland Clinical Commissioning Group’s (ELR CCG) plans to improve access to primary care and urgent care services for patients out of hours (evenings and weekends), and the associated procurement of a combined service for out of hours and urgent care, which is currently delivered as two separate services by different providers.

In this section, responses to the engagement are summarised. They include responses from Rutland County Council and Leicestershire County Council.

4.1 Meeting notes from Rutland Adults and Health Scrutiny Panel

The minutes of the discussion from the 28 June meeting can be viewed here: https://rutlandcounty.moderngov.co.uk/documents/g1899/Public%20minutes%2028th-Jun- 2018%2019.00%20Adults%20and%20Health%20Scrutiny%20Panel.pdf?T=11

The notes are set out below for ease of reference.

During discussion the following points were noted:

 Patients were confused about what type of out of hours and urgent services were available and at what times  The following changes to the service were being proposed: o That out of hours services would start at 6.30pm when GP surgery hours finished so that there was not an overlap as there was presently o That a mobile GP for the Rutland and Melton area which would provide a 24/7 Urgent Care Visiting Service and which could be accessed via 111, would be available o That there would be three points of access for a combined GP and nurse service. These would be; walk in at weekends and evenings, via 111 service or the GP practice could book you in  National funding (the GP Five Year Forward View) would be used to ensure  there was a greater level of access between 8am and 6.30pm  Clinicians were supportive of the proposals as they felt they were the most  pragmatic and integrated way of offering services  Every patient who attended Oakham practice was coded and currently  there were more people attending Oakham than going on to A & E  30% of the ELR patients attending Leicester Royal could have been seen in a primary care setting.

AGREED:

The Panel NOTED the plans for improved access to primary care and public engagement activity.

4.2 Meeting notes from Leicestershire Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee

The minutes of the discussion from the 30 May meeting can be viewed here: http://politics.leics.gov.uk/documents/g5239/Printed%20minutes%20Wednesday%2030-May- 2018%2014.00%20Health%20Overview%20and%20Scrutiny%20Committee.pdf?T=1

The notes are set out below for ease of reference.

Arising from discussions the following points were noted:

 The Committee endorsed the proposals particularly the procurement of a combined service for out of hours and urgent care  ELRCCG reassured Members that County Councillors would be an important part of the engagement process and would be added to the list of consultees  Members raised concerns regarding difficulties for patients in obtaining appointments at some GP Practices within 10 weeks which often lead to increased attendance at the out of hours service. Members asked that ELRCCG gave clear communication to GPs regarding the proposals and ensured that GP Practices adhere to the guidelines. It was noted that GP Practices could book patients into the out of hours service  The timings for when GP Practices were open varied across the County and under the new proposals the timings would be standardised. All GP Practices would need to be open until 6:30pm under the new system  There was a direct correlation between areas which did not have an out of hours service (such as Blaby and Rutland) and high attendance at Accident and Emergency Departments from patients who lived in those areas. Consideration was being given to a suitable venue for an out of hours service in Blaby district  In response to a question regarding the closure of Fielding Palmer hospital in Lutterworth it was confirmed that there were no plans to move the out of hours service away from Fielding Palmer.

RESOLVED:

That the plans to improve access to primary care and urgent care services be supported.

5. Responses from organisations and other correspondence

5.1 Meeting notes from Leicestershire Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee

A total of ten public opportunities to share views face to face took place during the engagement period.

Date & Time Venue Type 3 July 2018 (10am-12.30pm) Brockington College, Enderby Public Event 12 July 2018 (2pm-4.30pm) VAR, Rutland Community Hub Public Event 13 July 2018 (9am-1pm) Uppingham Market Listening Booth 17 July 2018 (9am-12pm) Melton Mowbray Market Listening Booth 18 July 2018 (12am-4pm) Gates Garden Centre, Somerby Listening Booth 19 July 2018 (9am-12pm) Lutterworth Market Listening Booth 20 July 2018 (9am-12pm) Market Harborough Leisure Listening Booth Centre 23 July 2018 (9am-11am) Parklands Leisure Centre Oadby Listening Booth

This resulted in 277 contacts with the public. The public meetings were attended by patients, members of the public, staff, and interested groups. All those who attended had the opportunity to fill out a questionnaire and take hard copies away. People spoken with at locations using the Listening Booth were given details of the proposals and had the opportunity to complete hard copy versions of the survey or were signposted to the online information and survey.

Blaby public event

The feedback from the meeting was:

 It was felt that Blaby has a growing population and was the right choice for a new urgent care centre  Existing healthcare buildings should be considered for the new urgent care centre as opposed to building a new site  The current overlap of opening hours was unnecessary and needed reviewing  Patients with complex needs should be seen by their own GP  Standardised opening hours across all sites would provide more flexibility and better understanding of what services are offered where  Patient would resent a service if they were turned away due to not being at the appropriate place for their health need.

A full list of all responses from this event is attached at Appendix E.

Rutland public event

The feedback from the meeting was:

 Concern that it is currently difficult to get GP appointments in hours and if the opening hours of urgent care centres change would increase the pressure on A&E  It was felt that 90% of appointments at Melton were used and should continue to be offered  Some GP practices close earlier than 6:30pm leaving a gap in service  More promotion required for the Rutland GP out of hours service  Information should be clear without the use of jargon  Concern over staffing the services.

Page | 13 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

A full list of all responses from this event is attached at Appendix F.

Listening booth events

The feedback from face to face conversations with the listening booth was:

 Current services provided at Oadby and Lutterworth hospital are very good  Expand services and offer more beds at Fielding Palmer Hospital  Health services should reflect the population numbers for each area  Keep services local  More promotion required to highlight which Urgent Care Services are available  More information for patients living outside geographical areas.

5.2 Patient Participation Group (PPG) Meeting

A Patient Participation Group/Patient Reference Group network meeting took place on 1 June 2018 and the urgent care engagement was an agenda item. As part of the overall presentation the presenter posed two questions to the members:

1. What works now and what aspects of the current service do we need to keep/protect? 2. What does not work and what needs to change?

All attendees contributed to the discussion and the following feedback was recorded:

Areas to protect

 The current Minor Injury Units in Melton, Rutland and Market Harborough  The Melton model is an example of how a successful service should run  The use of a single telephone number e.g. 111 is positive and reduces confusion  The work with long term conditions should remain.

Areas to change and suggestions

 More information required highlighting what services are available and where  Allow more Urgent Care Centres to invest in diagnostic equipment e.g. x-ray  Improve communications between all Urgent Care Centres e.g. when transferring x- ray results  For the terms ‘in hours’ and ‘out of hours’ to be clarified to members of the public who may not be familiar with Urgent Care Centres  To consider the Urgent Care needs for those areas where the population/housing is increasing  To consider any previous pilot schemes that may have taken place with GP practices to improve weekend services.

Question 5

Patients tell us they’re confused about where to access out-of-hours appointments on weekday evenings when GP practices and urgent care centres are both open from 5pm to 6.30pm. We want to reduce confusion and make best use of NHS resources by removing this overlap of opening hours. Under our plans, urgent care centres (excluding Oadby Urgent Care Centre) would open on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm.

Question 6

Our research shows that people are not regularly using our urgent care centres in Melton Mowbray, Market Harborough and Oakham between 5pm and 7pm at weekends and on bank holidays. This means that over one-third (36%) of available appointments are not being used across our sites between these hours. We are considering changing the opening hours at weekends and on bank holidays to 9am to 5pm to make services easier to navigate and make best use of NHS resources.

Question 8

Considering the following access factors, what would be important to you about the location of the urgent care centre in the Blaby district area:

Slightly Factor Very important Important important Not important No opinion Total Parking 42.82% 322 21.54% 162 4.79% 36 4.39% 33 26.46% 199 752 Accessible by public transport 23.31% 172 15.99% 118 10.57% 78 21.54% 159 28.59% 211 738 Service is provided from an existing healthcare facility (such as a GP practice) 17.74% 132 18.95% 141 8.74% 65 24.46% 182 30.11% 224 744 There is a pharmacy open at the same time nearby 44.21% 332 23.44% 176 5.46% 41 3.46% 26 23.44% 176 751 Skipped 18

The highest number of respondents per factor for this question varies as (42.82%) felt parking was very important, (28.59%) had no opinion on the matter of services being accessible by public transport, (30.11%) had no opinion on the matter of services provided from an existing healthcare facility and (44.21%) selected that it would be very important if there is a pharmacy open at the same time nearby. This question was not answered by 18 people. Question 9

Is there anything else you consider to be important in the location of a service in the Blaby district area?

This question was answered by 427 respondents.

 124 respondents said No, they do not consider anything else to be important in the location of a service in the Blaby district area  40 respondents felt this question was not applicable to them  155 respondents made other comments (please see below)  108 respondents highlighted what was important to them when considering the location of a service in the Blaby district area (please see below).

Of the 155 other comments, the following areas were highlighted:

Distance

It is felt that the distance from the Blaby district area to other areas such as Lutterworth, Market Harborough, Oakham and Rutland is excessive and that it would not be an option for patients to travel this far. Further comments were also made that it would be easier to access services at the Kettering hospital, Rugby hospital and Loughborough urgent care centre as opposed to Blaby.

In favour of the proposal

Although the suggestion of a new urgent care centre in the Blaby district was welcomed some respondents highlighted concerns that this question should only be aimed at those residents living in the Blaby district as it was not relevant to others. However, respondents did agree in saying that if this proposal supported the people of Blaby then it would be seen as a good suggestion.

Other suggestions

A number of comments suggested that more beds should be available at the Fielding Palmer Hospital in Lutterworth and for this new service to be within the current hospital setting. This was seen as a more convenient location for others living in Lutterworth, Market Harborough, Oakham and Rutland.

Many respondents also highlighted that they were not sure where the Blaby district is and so could not comment on any new service in the area.

Of the 108 responses highlighting other areas of importance the following should be considered include:

 To be an easy accessible site for all  Using existing NHS buildings  Good transport links to the new site  An onsite pharmacy to collect prescriptions  Specialist support for palliative and end of life patients  Good disabled access  Accessible to the majority from the centre of Blaby  Be able to be seen quickly and for the service to have ample appointments  Greater awareness and promotion of where the new service is based  Suitably staffed  Adequate car parking

 Good signposting around Blaby to the new service  Access for the ageing population of Blaby  Longer opening hours  Have a GP on site.

Question 10

If you have any suggestions as to where a new service in the Blaby district area should be located, please let us know here:

This question was answered by 353 respondents.

 101 respondents suggested a single location for an urgent care centre to be located in the Blaby district area. Full details are at Appendix K  27 respondents suggested multiple locations in their answer. Full details are at Appendix K  80 respondents did not have any suggestions  57 respondents felt this question was not applicable to them  17 respondents were unsure  respondents felt the service should not be in the Blaby district  28 respondents left other comments not necessarily suggesting a location (please see below).

The 28 other comments included:

 For the new site to be accessible from the A426 for those residents living in Lutterworth  Concerns as to why this service was proposed in the Blaby district as opposed to Lutterworth  Concerns that residents of the Blaby district currently have access to the Leicester Royal Infirmary and so would not require additional services  Concerns of cost to build/run a new service when there are current services available  For any decision to be based on where there is a clear need for a new urgent care service as other areas may be in more need  For the new site to have good transport links particularly by bus for those who cannot drive.

A further 41 respondents suggested an area in Lutterworth (including Lutterworth Health Centre and Fielding Palmer hospital). Comments indicated a concern that the urgent care service in Lutterworth would be removed due to the new urgent care service proposed in the Blaby district. Comments included:

 Lutterworth is growing rapidly with more homes planned yet no additional health facilities  Fielding Palmer hospital would be seen as the ideal location with good parking and close to a further two GP surgeries  Fielding Palmer hospital due to its central location and currently provides a good out of hours service.

c) Please give the reason for your answer

In the comments written in response to this question the main reasons people gave for agreeing with the statement were that it would enable a more efficient urgent care service which allowed the best use of resources:

A more efficient urgent care service

 It would relieve the pressure on the services  This would help to make sure treatment was being given to urgent patients and other problems directed to the most suitable out of hours service If it is not appropriate to be treated at an urgent care centre, then it is only a waste of the patient and staff members’ time - as you will probably have to follow up another route of care after being seen if the result was inconclusive. I believe that insisting on being treated somewhere just because you are there (providing another service is reasonably accessible) is counter intuitive for both my own treatment and the pressures on the service provider. It goes without saying that if my condition requires more specific treatment I should go where that can be provided. Conversely, if I am bottlenecking a service with problems of a less serious or specialist nature that can be better dealt with elsewhere and would relieve pressure on the service, logic dictates that this also is the appropriate route to take.

Best use of resources

 It stops abuse of the system, so if people walk in instead of getting a planned appointment with their GP they don’t get fast tracked  I agree, to make the best use of NHS care  Best use of resources plus better use of my time to be treated by the right service  I would hope that if my ailment was minor enough to be dealt with by, say, a pharmacist, I would be signposted there freeing up healthcare professionals’ time, likewise if it was serious enough to be sent to the LRI, I would hope that would be signposted too.

Many people’s comments explained that their level of agreement/disagreement would depend on certain concerns they had being considering. These included; transport if signposted to another service or a booked appointment, appropriate triage, possible time delay to treatment, concern that people would be referred on unnecessarily.

Transport

People were concerned about how they would travel to an alternative service or booked appointment if they were signposted somewhere else. People were particularly concerned about the elderly and those with children. Distance to travel was also a concern. Please see an example of comments below:

Transport

 I may need public transport to get there which may not be easy  Depends entirely on location of alternative – no transport  Do not strongly agree as transport is an issue and I would rather be able to use my LOCAL urgent care centre.

Page | 33 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

Older people and those with children

 Depending on age of the patient this could prove difficult particularly if a longer journey already has been undertaken by public transport  Travelling to another site would be inconvenient if I had brought my baby to a centre for care but for myself I wouldn’t mind  If the suggested service is, indeed, the most appropriate it is hard to disagree. Age and mobility considerations are still important. If a patient presents at the urgent healthcare site with an urgent need, something needs to be in place to facilitate transfer  Fine for people with cars and support. Perhaps not so easy for elderly or vulnerable people and those who are less mobile. Also I would want to be reassured that my needs were really best served elsewhere, rather than it just being cheaper to treat me elsewhere  With small children it is hard to take them to different places if they are ill or in pain and wastes time; would rather be seen in one place.

Distance to travel

 Depends how far away it was and how to get there  It depends how far away this service is and how accessible for the service user as sometimes, when poorly, you go to be seen and get it wrong and sending them away further may not be the best thing for the patient.

Appropriate triage

Appropriate triage was a concern expressed in the written comments. Please see an example of the comments below:

 As long as the person in charge of the triage was competent and fully qualified, I would have confidence in them assessing my situation and forwarding me on to the appropriate person  Only if a qualified healthcare professional was involved in this decision  As long as the person was suitably qualified to make that decision e.g. not the receptionist  Triage effectiveness would need to be very closely monitored.

Time delay to treatment

 As long as it was an appropriate service and that the waiting times were within a short period of time  As long as I come to no harm by the delay. In principle, it is better to be seen by the appropriate service than to be seen quickly. As long as the delay is not detrimental  As long as the 'signposting' service included booking an appointment, and as long as the booked appointment was appropriate and guaranteed to be timely. I would be happy for the Urgent Care Centre to book me in with my GP surgery on the next working day, for example.

Concern that people may be referred unnecessarily

 It depends if I feel that I am just being got rid of because they are too busy  It would depend on whether I agreed that the condition could wait. I’d be concerned that to keep the process running smoothly that referring a person on could be seen as a resolution to the service but not to the individual. This would need to be monitored!

Page | 34 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

 I am happy to be referred on if it is genuinely for better treatment/service rather than just being fobbed off.

The written comments also tell us that some respondents are not in favour of a triage approach and expect to be seen at the urgent care centre if they have made a decision to attend:

 I would not have gone to an urgent care centre if I didn't think it was necessary; I would have accessed another service/appointment. The patient should not be sent somewhere else but treated there  I feel that the required staff should be in place in order for me to be treated first time, first place. Moving poorly, PST is not acceptable. I feel all sites should be staffed with a minimum of two clinicians. At least one, a prescriber to make each site safe and manageable. I also feel that we should utilise St Luke’s fantastic new x-ray machine at evenings and weekends. Depends on when you were given an appointment. If immediately, fine, and fine if in same location. But that’s not the suggestion here  If I have made it to an urgent care centre that is where I want to be treated or seen, not sent to elsewhere  Too complicated and frustrating. People want to be seen quickly not signposted on.

Question 12

Is there anything you would like us to consider in our plans for the future of out-of-hours services in East Leicestershire and Rutland?

Answered 478 Skipped 297

In the written comments people have taken the opportunity to express their appreciation of and the ongoing need for urgent care services in their area, the comments also relay a level of anxiety for people who believe they may lose their local urgent care service.

People are also concerned about the impact of the increasing population in their local area and the impact this is having on availability of GP appointments as well as the availability of GP appointments in general. This perceived situation seems to be a consideration in some cases as people comment on the opening hours for the urgent care service, although people also make unrelated comments on opening hours for the urgent care services.

Some people have indicated that they would like particular service provision to be considered as part of the urgent care services; for example, mental health service provision and sexual health services. A couple of people also ask for a home visiting service to be considered for older people.

The written comments also request communication and publication of the location and opening hours for the urgent care services.

Please see below examples of comments relating to the themes outlined above:

Appreciation of urgent care services and the on-going need for such services

 The Market Harborough service is good and keeps people out of hospital especially with asthma, falls etc.  I have needed Rutland memorial hospital urgently over the last few months - if it wasn't there I wouldn't be  Use and promote the brilliant services already in town  The importance of it to local people  Oakham walk in centre is invaluable in such a rural location. Should be open at all times please  Urgent care centres are a useful and important supplement to normal GP services. On the occasions that I and my family have needed to use them, they are invaluable and the saving of time and distress to individuals - particularly children - needs to be considered as part of the case of retaining them for the community and not just treating it like a business case with vacant appointments equalling low sales. There is a definite well-being benefit to the local community that must be considered  We definitely need out of hours services as a lot of people are unable to obtain transport  Just to remember, it is a really valuable service that everyone needs to know about.  Keep it going please, we have a massive ranging population and a massive increase in young people too  Don't forget that for people who live in Lutterworth and don't drive...we do not have a bus service after one on a Saturday and nothing in a Sunday so unable to access anywhere, this will then fall in 999.

Comments relaying anxiety about loss of local urgent care centre:

 Please save the fielding palmer hospital in Lutterworth. This is much needed. It needs to be expanded to cater for the growing population of Lutterworth  Keep service in Market Harborough  Keep Lutterworth Fielding Palmer Hospital open. It is treasured by Lutterworth people and a comfort to know it is there if urgent care needed and for caring for its local people and for ease of access rather than having to travel to big town or city hospitals  Rutland services should be provided in Rutland not Blaby, 36 miles from my home  The current service in Oakham, Rutland is beyond excellent - I cannot recommend it highly enough. If the service was reduced in Rutland I believe it would be to the detriment of Rutland residents (myself included) as we are so far away from any other health services. This is a retrograde step  Our GP and A&E services are already over stretched. Closing down a local facility will only add to this pressure on our local NHS centre and jeopardise the quality of service received  East Leicestershire and Rutland is a huge rural area and is under-funded as it is. By cutting urgent care services in existing areas does not make sense. I do agree that now Blaby needs to have the same level of options as other areas.

Much of the anxiety around a perception that local services will be lost is underpinned by lack of transport and distance to travel to another service:

 We definitely need out of hours services as a lot of people are unable to obtain transport  Transport out of Rutland is very difficult and a problem, particularly, for example, to Blaby and Loughborough.

The availability of GP appointments

 I'd like you to take into account the fact that it is becoming increasingly difficult to book a GP appointment where I live (Kibworth) due to the huge influx of new residents, and this will only get worse over the next few years  Improving rather than removing the memorial hospital Oakham. Ensuring doctor availability in Oakham by building a new surgery to cater for the many new homes. People would not have to resort to out of hours services if they could see a doctor before the matter became urgent  With more houses being built in Harborough, getting a Doctors apt will be so difficult then the urgent care centres will probably see an increase of patients, not a cut!!  I think it is important to appreciate future growth in areas. Broughton Astley will be bigger than Lutterworth soon and Lutterworth will also have East Lutterworth to support. On top of this, you may also have a requirement from Magna Park, especially as it may expand  Rising population and supporting facilities in existence such as the Cottage Hospital in Lutterworth with the possibility of extension  More surgeries with more appointment  Make the appointment in the evening pre-bookable, like GP appointments.

The opening hours for urgent care services

 Patients can’t see GPs at the moment so how do you even consider changing hours in urgent clinics. You can only do it if access to see GPs are easier  It would be great if the GP opening times were longer to help with people working and to be able to see a familiar face for out of hours appointments

Page | 37 NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Urgent Care Engagement Report 2018

 Improved GP access and appointment times suitable to the modern working world not related to the current times  Keep the existing hours at Luke's  No reduction in hours  Out of hours care should mean from when GPs close to when they reopen.

A few people ask for certain service provision to be considered as part of the urgent care service

 Access to mental health services and advice after hours  Mental health provision (including for children)  It seems like a good time to consider how sexual health provision could be linked to urgent care, seeing as sexually transmitted diseases are on the rise  Allow home visits for those who cannot get to the out of hours clinics.

The need for communication and publication of urgent care services

 Better publication of services and location. Might be a good idea to put it on notices in and outside GP surgeries  Whatever is decided should be communicated to the local community  Advertising how it should be used  Notifying patients of all out of hours services with phone numbers for those not on the internet and of any changes.

7. Key points for consideration

The survey attracted a high number of respondents (775), suggesting a high level of local interest .

Opening hours

While most respondents agreed to the logic behind removing the overlap in the opening hours and felt it would have no impact on them, the written comments show that there is concern from some respondents and these need to be considered.

Weekend and Bank Holiday access after 5pm is also important to a sizeable majority of respondents (60%)

Locating UCC in Blaby

Residents are likely to use an urgent care centre sited in Blaby. However commissioners will need to consider in more detail where in Blaby they site the new UCC.

Signposting to alternative services

Respondents understand the importance of being seen by the most appropriate healthcare professional/service. However, there were concerns about being signposted elsewhere if attending a UCC. Concerns centres on:

 Transport  Older people and children  Distance to travel  Appropriate triage  Time delay to treatment  Concern that people may be referred on unnecessarily

In addition, many respondents were particularly concerned about the impact on older patients and children. While others felt that if they had made the effort to attend a UCC, that is where they should be seen and possibly treated.

Future of out of hours services

Commissioners will need to allay respondents' anxiety with regard to their perceived loss of urgent care services. This was particularly evident among residents of Lutterworth but was also mentioned in other areas. Their concern highlights the importance of ensuring robust communication around urgent care services so that residents are clear about what is available, when and where.

When planning the next steps for urgent care, commissioners could also consider expanding what is available to include, for example, mental health, sexual health services and home visits for older people.

Website news story copy Patients asked to share views on out- of-hours healthcare services

Patients in East Leicestershire and Rutland are being asked for their views on out-of- hours healthcare services, as the local NHS looks to make improvements to the services.

The services, known as urgent care services, offer GP and nurse appointments when GP practices are closed on weekday evenings, at weekends and on bank holidays.

NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland Clinical Commissioning Group (ELR CCG) is proposing the changes as the contracts for the services come to an end in March 2019.

The changes, which include plans to open a new urgent care centre in the Blaby district area and revise opening hours of existing urgent care services, are designed to make services easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources.

There are currently three nurse-led urgent care centres in East Leicestershire and Rutland which offer walk-in services and pre-booked appointments by calling NHS 111. These include Melton Mowbray, Oakham and Market Harborough, which are open on weekday evenings from 5pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 7pm.

A walk-in service is available at the urgent care centre in Oadby on weekday evenings from 8am to 9pm and at weekends and bank holidays from 8am to 8pm.

Patients can also access an out-of-hours GP service by calling NHS 111 at two sites in Oakham and Lutterworth. The service offers GP appointments at weekends and on bank holidays from 8am to 9pm in Oakham and from 10am to 4pm in Lutterworth.

Housebound patients can access a 24/7 urgent care visiting service by calling NHS 111.

Feedback from patients has shown that people are confused about what service is available when, especially when out-of-hours services overlap with GP practice opening hours. Patients have also said they are confused about how to access urgent care services, whether they are walk-in, available by appointment only or booked by calling NHS 111.

The new proposals aim to make services easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources. The plans outline combining the current out-of-hours GP service with the nurse-led urgent care service, keeping services in the same location but making opening hours consistent across most of the sites. Currently, the services operate under different contracts so patients can face difficulty accessing one service from another.

Figures show urgent care centres in East Leicestershire and Rutland are not widely used on weekday evenings from 5pm to 6.30pm when GP practices are still open. Half (51%) of appointments at urgent care centres in Melton Mowbray (50%), Oakham (65%) and Harborough (38%) are not used during these periods. The new proposals include opening urgent care centres from 6.30pm to 9pm on weekday evenings to avoid the overlap with GP practice opening hours and reduce confusion over where people should access services.

Patients have told ELR CCG they find it confusing that urgent care centres in East Leicestershire and Rutland are open at different times. In response to this, ELR CCG is considering standardising opening hours across most urgent care centres at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm so that services are easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources. Although usage varies at different urgent care centres in the area, over one-third (36%) of appointments available at urgent care centres in Melton Mowbray (10%), Oakham (68%) and Harborough (28%) are not used at weekends and on bank holidays between 5pm and 7pm. ELR CCG wants to hear patients’ views on whether standardising opening hours across most of the sites will meet patients’ needs locally.

In the plans, ELR CCG proposes to open a new urgent care centre in the Blaby district area, recognising there is patient demand for a service in the area. Figures show over one-quarter (26%) of out-of-hours appointments at Oadby Urgent Care Centre are used by people who live in the Blaby district area. The exact location for the new site is yet to be determined and patients are being asked for their views on what is important to them.

ELR CCG recognises patient concerns around availability of appointments at GP practices. As part of the plans, patients will be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments at urgent care centres via their GP practice from September 2018. And, there will be increased investment in weekday access for on-the-day appointments at GP practices.

The plans will also ensure patients can continue to access urgent care services outside of East Leicestershire and Rutland in neighbouring areas, for example in Stamford, Rugby, Grantham and Corby.

Dr Andy Ker, Clinical Vice-Chair at ELR CCG said: “We are keen to ensure that our urgent care services continue to meet people’s needs while providing high-quality, cost-effective services. We believe the plans we’ve set out will reduce some of the confusion around accessing out-of-hours GP and nurse appointments in East Leicestershire and Rutland; will reduce inefficiencies around having separate services and will ultimately ensure patients have access to high-quality services which are easy to navigate and make best use of NHS resources.

“We would encourage all patients to share their views on the plans with us so we can better understand their needs and how any changes might impact them.”

The survey is available to complete online at: surveymonkey.com/r/ELRurgentcare18

People are also invited to attend two information events to find out more about the plans. Events will take place on Tuesday 3 July from 10am to 12.30pm at Community Lounge, Brockington College, Blaby Road, Enderby, Blaby LE19 4AQ and on Thursday 12 July from 2pm to 4.30pm at Conference Room, Rutland Community Hub, Voluntary Action Rutland, Lands End Way, Oakham LE15 6RB.

Patients are asked to register for the Blaby event here and the Rutland event here.

The survey will close on Tuesday 24 July 2018. The findings will be considered and used to help shape services.

Notes to editors What are urgent care centres? Urgent care centres treat patients for injuries and illnesses that require immediate attention, but are not life threatening.

They offer more choice and increased access to healthcare on weekday evenings, at weekends and on bank holidays. This means patients can be seen and treated quicker than ever before.

Patients can be treated for a range of minor illnesses and injuries including, lacerations, stomach upsets, burns and strains. They will be seen by an experienced nurse, without an appointment. X-ray is available at some locations.

Background During 2013 and 2014 ELR CCG undertook extensive engagement and consultation with the public on services for people who need care for minor illnesses and injuries.

What does this mean for Blaby? ELR CCG plans to open a new urgent care centre in the Blaby district area. Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the centre will be open on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm. Patients will be able to walk-in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

The new centre will mean patients living in the district will be able to access out-of- hours services closer to home, reducing the need to travel. Currently, 26% of out-of- hours appointments at Oadby Urgent Care Centre are used by people who live in the Blaby district area.

The exact location for the site is currently being considered, however it is likely to be based at an existing healthcare premises.

What does this mean for Lutterworth? The out-of-hours GP service at Lutterworth Feilding Palmer Hospital is currently open at weekends and on bank holidays from 10am to 4pm. Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the service will operate extended opening hours, at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm.

Patients will be able to walk-in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

What does this mean for Melton Mowbray? The urgent care centre at Melton Mowbray Hospital is currently open on weekday evenings from 5pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 7pm. Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the urgent care centre’s revised opening hours will be weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm, and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm. This is because urgent care centres are not widely used on weekday evenings from 5pm to 6.30pm when GP practices are still open. And, in response to feedback from patients, ELR CCG is considering standardising opening hours across most urgent care centres at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm so that services are easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources. ELR CCG wants to hear patients’ views on whether standardising opening hours across most of the sites will meet patients’ needs locally.

Patients will be able to walk-in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

What does this mean for Rutland? The nurse-led urgent care centre at Rutland Memorial Hospital is currently open weekday evenings from 5pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 7pm. There is also a GP out-of-hours service from the same site which is currently open at weekends and on bank holidays from 8am to 9pm. The two services are currently run by different providers under separate contracts which means patients can face difficulties accessing one service from another.

Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the two services will be combined and will open on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm, and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm. The revised opening hours are because urgent care centres are not widely used on weekday evenings from 5pm to 6.30pm when GP practices are still open. And, in response to feedback from patients, ELR CCG is considering standardising opening hours across most urgent care centres at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm so that services are easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources. ELR CCG wants to hear patients’ views on whether standardising opening hours across most of the sites will meet patients’ needs locally.

Patients will be able to walk-in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

What does this mean for Market Harborough? The nurse-led urgent care centre at St Luke’s Treatment Centre in Market Harborough is currently open on weekday evenings from 5pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 7pm. Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the urgent care centre’s revised opening hours will be on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm, and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm. This is because urgent care centres are not widely used from 5pm to 6.30pm on weekdays when GP practices are still open. And, in response to feedback from patients, ELR CCG is considering standardising opening hours across most urgent care centres at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm so that services are easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources. ELR CCG wants to hear patients’ views on whether standardising opening hours across most of the sites will meet patients’ needs locally.

Patients will be able to walk in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

What does this mean for Oadby? The Oadby Urgent Centre will remain open as normal on weekday evenings from 8am to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 8am to 8pm. People are able to walk-in for care and appointments are also offered to those calling NHS 111. Patients will be able to walk-in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

Appendix D

Media release Date: Wednesday 20 June 2018 Interview opportunity with Dr Andy Ker on Thursday 21 June from 9.15am to 10.15am. Contact [email protected] or call 0116 295 6965 to confirm.

Patients asked to share views on out-of- hours healthcare services

Patients in East Leicestershire and Rutland are being asked for their views on out-of-hours healthcare services, as the local NHS looks to make improvements to the services.

The services, known as urgent care services, offer GP and nurse appointments when GP practices are closed on weekday evenings, at weekends and on bank holidays.

NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland Clinical Commissioning Group (ELR CCG) is proposing the changes as the contracts for the services come to an end in March 2019.

The changes, which include plans to open a new urgent care centre in the Blaby district area and revise opening hours of existing urgent care services, are designed to make services easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources.

There are currently three nurse-led urgent care centres in East Leicestershire and Rutland which offer walk-in services and pre-booked appointments by calling NHS 111. These include Melton Mowbray, Oakham and Market Harborough, which are open on weekday evenings from 5pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 7pm.

A walk-in service is available at the urgent care centre in Oadby on weekday evenings from 8am to 9pm and at weekends and bank holidays from 8am to 8pm.

Patients can also access an out-of-hours GP service by calling NHS 111 at two sites in Oakham and Lutterworth. The service offers GP appointments at weekends and on bank holidays from 8am to 9pm in Oakham and from 10am to 4pm in Lutterworth.

Housebound patients can access a 24/7 urgent care visiting service by calling NHS 111.

Feedback from patients has shown that people are confused about what service is available when, especially when out-of-hours services overlap with GP practice opening hours. Patients have also said they are confused about how to access urgent care services, whether they are walk-in, available by appointment only or booked by calling NHS 111.

The new proposals aim to make services easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources. The plans outline combining the current out-of-hours GP service with the nurse- led urgent care service, keeping services in the same location but making opening hours consistent across most of the sites. Currently, the services operate under different contracts so patients can face difficulty accessing one service from another.

Figures show urgent care centres in East Leicestershire and Rutland are not widely used on weekday evenings from 5pm to 6.30pm when GP practices are still open. Half (51%) of appointments at urgent care centres in Melton Mowbray (50%), Oakham (65%) and Harborough (38%) are not used during these periods. The new proposals include opening urgent care centres from 6.30pm to 9pm on weekday evenings to avoid the overlap with GP practice opening hours and reduce confusion over where people should access services.

Patients have told ELR CCG they find it confusing that urgent care centres in East Leicestershire and Rutland are open at different times. In response to this, ELR CCG is considering standardising opening hours across most urgent care centres at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm so that services are easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources. Although usage varies at different urgent care centres in the area, over one-third (36%) of appointments available at urgent care centres in Melton Mowbray (10%), Oakham (68%) and Harborough (28%) are not used at weekends and on bank holidays between 5pm and 7pm. ELR CCG wants to hear patients’ views on whether standardising opening hours across most of the sites will meet patients’ needs locally.

In the plans, ELR CCG proposes to open a new urgent care centre in the Blaby district area, recognising there is patient demand for a service in the area. Figures show over one-quarter (26%) of out-of-hours appointments at Oadby Urgent Care Centre are used by people who live in the Blaby district area. The exact location for the new site is yet to be determined and patients are being asked for their views on what is important to them.

ELR CCG recognises patient concerns around availability of appointments at GP practices. As part of the plans, patients will be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments at urgent care centres via their GP practice from September 2018. And, there will be increased investment in weekday access for on-the-day appointments at GP practices.

The plans will also ensure patients can continue to access urgent care services outside of East Leicestershire and Rutland in neighbouring areas, for example in Stamford, Rugby, Grantham and Corby.

Dr Andy Ker, Clinical Vice-Chair at ELR CCG said: “We are keen to ensure that our urgent care services continue to meet people’s needs while providing high-quality, cost-effective services. We believe the plans we’ve set out will reduce some of the confusion around accessing out-of-hours GP and nurse appointments in East Leicestershire and Rutland; will reduce inefficiencies around having separate services and will ultimately ensure patients have access to high-quality services which are easy to navigate and make best use of NHS resources.

“We would encourage all patients to share their views on the plans with us so we can better understand their needs and how any changes might impact them.”

The survey is available to complete online at: surveymonkey.com/r/ELRurgentcare18

People are also invited to attend two information events to find out more about the plans. Events will take place on Tuesday 3 July from 10am to 12.30pm at Community Lounge, Brockington College, Blaby Road, Enderby, Blaby LE19 4AQ and on Thursday 12 July from 2pm to 4.30pm at Conference Room, Rutland Community Hub, Voluntary Action Rutland, Lands End Way, Oakham LE15 6RB.

The survey will close on Tuesday 24 July 2018. The findings will be considered and used to help shape services.

Notes to editors What are urgent care centres? Urgent care centres treat patients for injuries and illnesses that require immediate attention, but are not life threatening.

They offer more choice and increased access to healthcare on weekday evenings, at weekends and on bank holidays. This means patients can be seen and treated quicker than ever before.

Patients can be treated for a range of minor illnesses and injuries including, lacerations, stomach upsets, burns and strains. They will be seen by an experienced nurse, without an appointment. X- ray is available at some locations.

Background During 2013 and 2014 ELR CCG undertook extensive engagement and consultation with the public on services for people who need care for minor illnesses and injuries.

What does this mean for Blaby? ELR CCG plans to open a new urgent care centre in the Blaby district area. Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the centre will be open on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm. Patients will be able to walk-in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

The new centre will mean patients living in the district will be able to access out-of-hours services closer to home, reducing the need to travel. Currently, 26% of out-of-hours appointments at Oadby Urgent Care Centre are used by people who live in the Blaby district area.

The exact location for the site is currently being considered, however it is likely to be based at an existing healthcare premises.

What does this mean for Lutterworth? The out-of-hours GP service at Lutterworth Feilding Palmer Hospital is currently open at weekends and on bank holidays from 10am to 4pm. Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the service will operate extended opening hours, at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm.

Patients will be able to walk-in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

What does this mean for Melton Mowbray? The urgent care centre at Melton Mowbray Hospital is currently open on weekday evenings from 5pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 7pm. Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the urgent care centre’s revised opening hours will be weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm, and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm. This is

because urgent care centres are not widely used on weekday evenings from 5pm to 6.30pm when GP practices are still open. And, in response to feedback from patients, ELR CCG is considering standardising opening hours across most urgent care centres at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm so that services are easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources. ELR CCG wants to hear patients’ views on whether standardising opening hours across most of the sites will meet patients’ needs locally.

Patients will be able to walk-in to access healthcare, and appointments will be offered to those calling NHS 111 if their symptoms require it. Patients will also be able to pre-book weekday evening, weekend and bank holiday appointments via their GP practice from September 2018.

What does this mean for Rutland? The nurse-led urgent care centre at Rutland Memorial Hospital is currently open weekday evenings from 5pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 7pm. There is also a GP out-of-hours service from the same site which is currently open at weekends and on bank holidays from 8am to 9pm. The two services are currently run by different providers under separate contracts which means patients can face difficulties accessing one service from another.

Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the two services will be combined and will open on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm, and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm. The revised opening hours are because urgent care centres are not widely used on weekday evenings from 5pm to 6.30pm when GP practices are still open. And, in response to feedback from patients, ELR CCG is considering standardising opening hours across most urgent care centres at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm so that services are easier to navigate for patients and make best use of NHS resources.

What does this mean for Market Harborough? The nurse-led urgent care centre at St Luke’s Treatment Centre in Market Harborough is currently open on weekday evenings from 5pm to 9pm and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 7pm. Under the plans, which are subject to the views of patients, the urgent care centre’s revised opening hours will be on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 9pm, and at weekends and on bank holidays from 9am to 5pm.

Appendix E

Improving access to urgent care in the community - Blaby event feedback

Topic One – new site for Blaby  The population of the north Blaby area is significant and has large population so the site should be there  Makes sense for the urgent care centre to be at an existing healthcare site so as not to build a new site and waste resources that could be spent on doctors and nurses  Public transport is not an issue because most people will have to travel by car to get to them anyway  People don’t care about the quality of the building it’s the quality of the service  Closer to main roads the better so it’s more accessible, near Fosse Park. However traffic could be an issue on the inner ring road, especially Christmas opening  Should consider parking on site and the potential impact on local residents

Topic Two – opening hours  The overlap with in-hours primary care is a waste of resources  Consider seasonal differences in opening hours  Like the idea of appointments booked in advance via GP practice  Standardised opening hours across all sites would make it easier for patients to understand  Weekend opening hours would make it more equitable

Topic Three – clinical triage  Complex patients should see their own GP  Patients would resent being signposted to somewhere else  Patients don’t understand what triage is – less use of jargon  People are getting more used to seeing prescribing nurse rather than GP, however there still can be stigma  Patients would not like having to do be referred back to their practice after attending an urgent care centre. However – if the marketing of the service is right then patients know what to go where Appendix F

Improving access to urgent care in the community - Rutland event feedback

Changes to opening hours  It’s difficult to get a GP appointment in hours – these changes to reduce the opening hours of some urgent care centres is going to increase the pressure on A & E  90% of appointments are used at weekends and bank holidays at Melton so why close it – should not have a one size fits all approach  On the changes to weekday opening hours, for young children you don’t want to have to wait until 6.30pm to get help  GP practices don’t always open until 6.30pm anyway

 Why should Oakham have a GP when Melton is the busiest?

Oakham  The Rutland GP out of hours service has been poorly publicised since it was launched – hence why the usage data is low

Misc  Confused public perception of services – need to remove the jargon  Concern over continuity of care at urgent care centres with your health record  Concern over staffing the services  Patients are only interested in their own local urgent care centre – not the ELR picture  NHS 111 is a positive service but needs to be promoted better Appendices G, H, I, J, L, M, N

Published 6 August 2018 2 Improving access to urgent care in the community – Engagement report: Ad-hoc analysis

Methodology

An engagement process concerning urgent care services was undertaken with stakeholders, patients and the public in June and July 2018 by East Leicestershire and Rutland (ELR) CCG. In total, 775 responses were received to the engagement survey.

The main analysis report of these responses was provided by Arden & GEM.

This report concentrates on the results of an ad-hoc locality-focused analysis of two survey questions:

Q9: Our research shows that there is a significant demand for services in the Blaby district are when GP practices are closed. If we were to open an urgent care centre in the Blaby district area on weekday evenings, at weekends and on bank holidays, how likely is it that you would use the service?

Q10: Considering the following access factors, what would be important to you about the location of the urgent care centre in the Blaby district area?

A respondent-level dataset was provided by ELR CCG. Locality information was supplied within the dataset, based on the postcode sector of the respondent.

Chi-square tests were used to detect any significant differences in responses between respondents from different localities.

Charts are used to assist in the explanation of the analysis.

Analysis

Q9: Our research shows that there is a significant demand for services in the Blaby district are when GP practices are closed. If we were to open an urgent care centre in the Blaby district area on weekday evenings, at weekends and on bank holidays, how likely is it that you would use the service?

The response to this question was split: nearly half of all respondents (44%) said they were likely to use the Urgent Care Centre in Blaby if open on weekday evenings, at weekends and on bank holidays. Equally, nearly half (44%) said they were not likely to use such as service.

Splitting the responses by patient locality revealed some notable but understandable differences. Patients living closer to or within Blaby district were more likely to use an Urgent Care Centre located in the area, than those living further away.

Significantly more of the residents in the localities of North Blaby (95%), Oadby and Wigston (78%), and South Blaby (69%) said they would use an Urgent Care Centre in Blaby, compared to patients living elsewhere in ELR CCG (3-9%).

Response Likely 44% 12% 44% Overall 763 Not sure Not likely Q10: Considering the following access factors, what would be important to you about the location of the urgent care centre in the Blaby district area?

The majority of respondents said a pharmacy open at the same time nearby (72%), parking (70%), and accessibility by public transport (50%) were important factors when considering the location of the Urgent Care Centre in Blaby district. Just under half of respondents (46%) said the service being provided from an existing healthcare facility (such as a GP practice) was an important factor.

Similar to Q9, patients living closer to Blaby district were more likely to deem the factors to be important. The majority of patients in South Blaby and Oadby & Wigston localities considered all four factors to be important. Notably, significantly higher proportions of patients in South Blaby felt all four factors were important, compared to the average.

Similarly, significantly higher proportions of patients in North Blaby felt three of the four factors were important, compared to the average. Notably however the proportion in this locality that said the service being provided from an existing healthcare facility (such as a GP practice) was not an important factor (49%) was significantly higher than the average (24%).

Accessibility by public transport appeared to polarise patients living within Blaby district. As noted above, the proportion of patients in North Blaby (59%) and South Blaby (65%) to consider the factor to be important was significantly higher compared to the average (50%). Also however, the proportions in both localities that did not consider public transport accessibility to be important (34% and 26%) was also significantly higher than the average (22%).

Despite patients in more proximal localities to Blaby district placing greater importance on the listed factors, a pharmacy being open at the same time nearby was considered to be the most important factor by five of the six localities (97% of North Blaby patients felt parking to be more important).

In contrast, the service being provided from an existing healthcare facility (such as a GP practice) was considered to be the least important factor by five of the six localities (37% of Harborough patients felt the service being accessible by public transport to be less important).

2018/2019 Outline Business Case

Project title: General Practice Support and Investment Programme (GP SIP) CCG project impact: NHS ELR CCG Lead CCG for the project Tim Sacks, Chief Operating Officer Project manager: Paula Vaughan, Deputy Chief Operating Officer Clinical lead: Dr Andy Ker, ELR CCG Board Member SRO: Tim Sacks, Chief Operating Officer Finance lead: Richard George Activity lead: Primary Care Operations Team, ELR CCG Project start date: June 2018

1) Aim and objectives of the project (Short overview of the project. What does the project aim to achieve) The project aims to recommission Extended Primary care services across ELR with the intention of:

 Reducing confusion for patients  Providing a service more integrated across localities  Providing a locality-based approach to service provision  Providing a service in which the right clinical staff want to work  Providing a service which is a vital part of the wider LLR Urgent Care services  Delivering a service which supports core primary care and contributes to the sustainability of ELR practices  Builds on the excellent service we already provide to do the above.

2) Background (What factors influence your project choice?)

The drive for change has come from patient feedback over the past 12 months.

1 We have worked with our Patient Participation Groups to understand what is important for our patients to help shape our plans. Additionally, a pilot is currently underway in Syston, Long Clawson, Melton, Oakham and Market Harborough which will see patients who cannot be seen during GP opening hours, booked an appointment at Oakham (weekends) or Market Harborough (evenings) out of hours by their practice. The findings from the pilot, which includes reviewing patient experience, will be used to influence the roll out of this service enhancement later this year. Further enhancements in access are then expected to follow.

2 Patient feedback on current services has been consolidated from patient surveys, individual Patient Participation Groups (PPGs) meetings and group development sessions with the Chairs of each of the PPGs. In addition, the CCG’s Listening Booth has been to our most used site in Oadby to talk to patients directly about their experiences in accessing both Primary and Urgent Care.

3 The information the CCG has been given is that in core hours, patients either perceive or know there is not enough capacity within Primary Care and so they travel to use walk-in services such as in Oadby as an alternative. This is also a key theme in the patient survey results and from the PPGs.

4 Patients have also told us that they are confused about what is available when, (especially when out-of-hours services overlap with core GP opening times) and about how to access services (are services walk-in or bookable).

5 Patients also tell us that they are less likely to travel to use acute services if there are accessible, easily to use services in their immediate vicinity (or locality). They also tell us that the reduction in public transport makes living in some of our localities more difficult to access services and that the retention of local sites is important to them.

6 This important information has helped to decide the aspect of the current service which the CCG needs to address and look to improve.

Both current contracts come to an end of 31 March 2019 and recommissioning of the service is now required to ensure there is no gap in service.

Since April 2015, ELR CCG has delivered an exemplary Urgent Care service for its patients. For the past 3 years, the CCG has delivered a community-based face to face Urgent Care service which supports both patients in receiving care closer to home and the sustainability of general practice.

The service has delivered over 100,000 primary care appointments to ELR patients since its inception providing out of hours care closer to home. The service has also supported over 32,000 non-ELR patients with face to face consultations in the community as an alternative to accessing Acute services and as an essential part of the wider LLR Urgent Care system.

ELR CCG is changing its approach to the commissioning of community-based urgent care. Extended Primary Care (EPC) has previously been proposed as the ELR solution to the out-of-hours aspect of the ELR CCG Community Urgent Care service model. The service will be developed and delivered as part of the CCG’s response to the requirements of the GP5YFV and will also provide the ELR out-of-hours community base service as part of the wider LLR Integrated Urgent Care system.

Significant engagement, consultation and service design work was undertaken between 2012 and 2014 which procured and implemented a new urgent care service from April 2015. The CCG was nominated for an HSJ award for this work and its approach to patient centred commissioning.

Patient and CQC satisfaction with the current urgent care service is high, but confusion remains for some patients where service overlap exists or access routes differ across the CCG. The opportunities to further improve on the current model have been reviewed and appraised over the past year improving access to out-of-hours primary care services for even more ELR patients.

3 Strategic context (E.g. Linkages to STP, Operational Plan, 5 Year Forward View, RightCare)

The GP SIP contributes to the following:  ELR CCG Operational Plan  GP 5 year Forward View  Addressing National and Local clinical priorities  Integrated Teams and a locality based approach to commissioning

4) Alignment with STP priorities (please  appropriate box) New models of care focused on prevention, moderating demand growth. YES Service configuration to ensure clinical and financial sustainability. YES Redesign pathways. N/A Operational efficiencies. YES Getting the enablers right. YES 5) Has the RightCare Commissioning for Value Pack been considered for this project? Y/N? Please provide details of areas covered/addressed?

 No. This project is linked to the CCG’s requirement to deliver the key standards within the GP5YFV.

6) Alignment to QIPP (Demonstrate how the project delivers against QIPP) Quality: The service provided is currently is already of a high quality and project builds on this and the need to retain service quality.

Innovation: The delivery at a locality level strengthens the new structure and gives the CCG a basis on which to commission other services in the future.

Prevention: By meeting primary care urgent need and demand, the service will play a vital role within the vital LLR UC system, reducing the pressure on primary care and acute services.

Productivity This capacity is over and above the GP5YFV recommendations and requirements, but offer best access for ELR patients.

Not part of the financial envelope requirements. Any shift from ED will be additional system QIPP.

7) Measures of success (What are your key performance indicators? Do you have a baseline in which to measure improvement?) I.e. reduction in activity, waiting times, improved patient choice and outcomes.

Key performance indicators and metrics to be measured will be included within the final service specification.

They will include measures in the fields of:

 Patients service satisfaction  Waiting times  Slot availability and delivery of capacity  Referral rates back into primary care  Prescribing and medicines management  Use of triage and signposting service/tariff

8) Project costs (What are the costs associated with the project? Are they recurrent (ongoing, year on year) or non-recurrent (time limited, e.g. set-up costs, pump-priming)?

Recurrent CCG investment of £2.2M

9) Project timescales (When will the project start? Are there any phasing requirements? Is there recruitment involved?) Will the project have a part year effect?

This is a 5 year project and a 3+2 contract will be offered. Implementation date is 1 April 2019.

10) Impact on current contracts (Activity and Cost. What contracts will the projects implementation have an impact on? How has this been considered?) Has it been agreed? If so, where? Where have decisions been made? Has there been engagement with all relevant parties?

The cost pressure on the current financial envelope is £174K.

This has been agreed by the ELR CCG June GB and will be met from the GP5YFV investment pot.

The agreement of a 5 year contract and a competitive procurement process has been made by the Feb 2018 LLR CPC and agreed by the ELR CCG June GB.

11) Competition and procurement considerations (How will the project be implemented? E.g. pilot, extension of current service provision? Have initial discussions been held with Competition and Procurement Committee (CPC) Dates? Supporting papers?

Appendix A template Vs 15 OCTOBER 2016 - CPC April 18.docx

12) What potential project risks and unintended consequences have been identified and what mitigations will be put in place?

Further mitigations and risk management to the contract term are suggested in the inclusion of various caveats within the specification which enable change without penalty to the CCG.

Whilst we need to consider flexibility we must be mindful that if the specification and/or tender/procurement is too vague which could have implication on the number of bids we may receive as the contract can become unattractive if it is too vague, we should be able to test out in the tender/procurement how bidders could respond to changes and their ability to remain flexible and be open to changes if there are reconfigurations in the system.

The key here would be to be upfront about it and include it in the specification, test it out at market engagement event and during the tender/procurement and ensure that this is then captured in the contract with the preferred bidder/successful provider so that there are no issues in terms of contracting later on and decrease the risk of challenges if contract variations are issued in the future.

Commissioning Strategy Does the proposal support Y/N Does the proposal support the Y/N Question the CCG’s Vision and Question CCG’s Commissioning Yes Yes Strategic Goals? Intentions?

Quality Impact Assessment (QIA)

The QIA tool will require judgement against the ‘Duty of Quality’ outlined by the 5 domains included within the NHS Outcomes Framework. Each business case or project lead will need to assess whether the proposal being considered will result in a positive or adverse impact for patients and/or staff. If an adverse impact is identified in any area this will result in the need to calculate the overall risk of implementing the proposal using the CCG Risk Matrix (Appendix 1).

Equality Impact Assessment (EIA)

The general equality duty that is set out in the Equality Act 2010 requires public authorities, in the exercise of their functions, to have due regard to the need to:

 Eliminate unlawful discrimination, harassment and victimisation and other conduct prohibited by the Act.  Advance equality of opportunity between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not.

 Foster good relations between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not.

The purpose of the EIA tool is to identify if the proposal being considered will affect people who share relevant protected equalities characteristics in different ways to people who do not share them. Please include actions to mitigate any risks identified.

Please ensure you are familiar with the Due Regard guidance before completing the equality analysis

GP Locality Meetings – August 2018

11th September 2018

INTRODUCTION

1. The 31 GP practices across the CCG are split into 6 geographical localities, Blaby and Lutterworth, Oadby and Wigston, Syston Long Clawson and Melton, Rutland and finally Harborough. The purpose of the locality structure is to provide a forum for member practices to feed into the CCG, feedback to their practices and discuss key issues and concerns. In addition the locality structure provides:

• Meetings held monthly, 12 times a year, either in these localities or as a wider locality • A promotion of two-way discussion on all business and a mechanism for GPs to be updated on CCG matters to inform commissioning and planning processes. • Share learning from adverse events e.g. safeguarding issues etc. • Opportunities for clinical discussion and education • Monitoring of performance and quality through the sharing of benchmarked data and information.

LOCALITY MEETING CONTENT

These meetings are represented by each practice across the CCG. In the month of August there were six locality meetings, North Blaby, South Blaby and Lutterworth, Oadby & Wigston, Rutland, SLAM and Harborough. The themes for the August 2018 meetings can be split up as the following:

Clinical Topics Direct Booking into OOH Services (All localities) INR/Yellow Books (OW Only) Demand Management Review of locality data (Rutland) Clinical Research Network (Rutland and Harborough) Second Blood Collection (All localities either as AOB or on agenda) Community Services Redesign (All localities either as AOB or on agenda) Referral Support Service (All localities either as AOB or on agenda) GPTeamNet Demonstration (NB only)

Other Agenda Items Locality/ Joint Working (All localities) Single AO and Shared CCG Senior Team Update (All localities) ILLT updates (varies across localities) Governing Body Update (Rutland only and sent out after meeting to other localities) AOB

LOCALITY THEMES

The sections below represent the key themes from the Localities for the month of August 2018.

3. MELTON RUTLAND AND HARBOROUGH LOCALITIES Clinical Chair: Dr Girish Purohit (SLAM), Dr Anuj Chahal (Harborough) and Dr Rysz Bietzk (Rutland)

August 2018

SLAM

3.1 First SLAM only LILT meeting – GSP informed members that the first LILT meeting had taken place earlier in the day with representation from Adult Social Care and Melton Borough Council. The remit of the ILT and roles of organisations was discussed and to aid understanding a Venn diagram will be provided for the next meeting. There is no requirement for the locality to attend the LILT meetings currently but this may change in future.

3.2 Transformation plans – Home Visiting Service – Members discussed that they would see benefit in an extended home visiting service with different criteria. Discussions revealed that each practice deals with home visiting and Care home visiting in different ways, It was agreed that consistency , integration of staff delivering the service into the practice and having skilled staff would be important. Rob Haines from DHU attended the meeting with three proposed models to discuss with members. The members will take the proposals back to practice and discuss options with partners.

3.3 Second Blood Collection – Members were updated on the decision by CCB to decline the proposal for the CCG to pay for a second blood collection for practices in ELR. There is still an option for a second collection at a cost of £15k in total. If practices wish to take this up the cost could be split between the practices taking part. The locality expressed interest in a second collection but noted that their decision would be based on what time the collections would be.

HARBOROUGH

3.4 Single AO - To register and flag up the concern within the locality the implications of moving to a single AO on the locality investment.

3.5 Clinical Research Network - The Harborough locality intends to work together as a locality on clinical research following the presentation on CRN earlier in the meeting.

3.6 PLT Events - Suggest locality based Protected Learning Time events possibly in conjunction with MRH. Practice based PLTs are useful but locality based PLTs are seen as important for sharing best practice and learning.

4

Paper J ELR CCG Governing Body Meeting 11th September 2018

3.7 Physiotherapy - Feedback to GB about the appointment of a first contact physiotherapy partner within the locality to run the pilot phase from 1 October to 31 March.

RUTLAND

IAPT- The membership had received an email from the CCG regarding promotion of the IAPT service, however there was some concern over promotion of a service that GPs feel is clearly struggling. GPs shared their experiences and highlighted that there is an excessive delay being seen by the service after the initial telephone appointment. They also felt that the quality and quantity of the interventions offered are of concern. Before raising patient expectations the membership would like assurance that the service can manage a potential increase in demand and also assurance that measures are in place to address their concerns around quality and quantity and length of wait.

Demand Management – The GP Federation gave a useful presentation on Demand Management which highlighted various areas that would be worth investigating and sharing processes and knowledge to ensure that referrals are appropriate and there is more consistency across the patch. The locality moved forward to agree areas of focus - Dermatology, ENT and Ophthalmology initially with scope for more in future - These were chosen because they were areas with the most variations between practices in the patch. GPs commented that they do not know all of the pathways available and cited PRISM as a valuable resource but one that is difficult to use as the indexing and logic is lacking in the integrated versions making it difficult to locate the pathways needed. The locality were keen to work together to understand the variations and assist each other where possible to improve referrals.

Acute Access- The locality have been moving forward with Acute Access plans with an acknowledgement that the plan needs to respond to challenges raised by the CCG. The Rutland HealthCare Steering Group had put together a proposal which was accepted by the membership at the meeting and will be taken to individual practice meetings for feedback. The plan would be for each individual practice to write their own Acute Access plan but also to produce a collective Rutland Acute Access Plan. The available £4.47 per patient would be divided, with £3 to practices for their individual plans and the other £1.47 to the locality for the Rutland plan.

4. BLABY AND LUTTERWORTH – Chair Dr Graham Johnson & Dr Simon Vincent

August 2018

NORTH BLABY HUB – Chair Dr Simon Vincent

4.1 Locality Integrated Leadership Team (LILT) – The team had a constructive discussion around the Social Prescribing and Community Services Integration PID for the transformation plan which was then signed off by the group.

5

Paper J ELR CCG Governing Body Meeting 11th September 2018

Issues highlighted by the group included the lack of integration of systems. Community nurses do not have access to PRISM or ICE, and have limited views on SystmOne of care planning information. This needs to be resolved to allow better integrated working and communication between practices and community nurses as well as improving services for patients.

4.2 GPTeamNet – James Stephenson presented a webinar on the software package called GPTeamNet which can act as a central repository for locality practice policies and other information. The members were very impressed with the capabilities of the product and its ability to like with appraisal and training software.

4.3 Transformation Planning – The group reviewed the acute access project options and agreed that for the transformation funding most of funding would go to the employment of para medical staff to release GP capacity.

4.4 Community Services Redesign – Dr Simon Vincent presented the slides for the community services redesign and asked for members to respond to the key questions. There was complete agreement that the services needed to be properly funded new model as the past 10-15 years it had been a poor service due to under resourcing. Primary care were under a great deal of pressure to see increasing numbers of complex patients who needed longer than a 10 minute slot and caring for patients who were discharged too early vastly increases that pressure.

SOUTH BLABY AND LUTTERWORTH PARTNERSHIP HUB – Chair Dr Graham Johnson

4.5 Transformation Planning – The group had a discussion around the acute access work stream of the plan and agreed to go forward with an ANP model pilot. Potentially this would be an ANP each for the north and the south of the locality with Northfield and Hazelmere sharing a nurse and Lutterworth practices and Countesthorpe sharing the other.

4.6 Locality Integrated Leadership Team (LILT) – The team had a constructive discussion around frail and housebound patients not being in receipt of attendance allowance and how could asking the question be incorporated into the pathway earlier.

4.7 Further discussion around the Daltaparin issue; housebound patients needing two injections a day and not able to inject themselves didn’t have a service in the community to accommodate the second injection; this is currently being picked up by ICS, which is not a service for planned care and an expensive resource. Another issue that was highlighted that community nurses cannot install PRISM on their systems, for effective integration this needs to be address; particularly to allow them to access the Transferring Care Safely system. Community Services Redesign – The locality received the presentation and briefly discussed the key questions.

6

Paper J ELR CCG Governing Body Meeting 11th September 2018

4.8 Second Blood Collections – Tracey Knight updated the group on the decision of the Collaborative Commissioning Board not to fund a second pathology collection for LLR. The pathology service is prepared to provide the service to practices if they are willing to pay for it. There was general support from practices to fund, although very disappointed that central funding wasn’t agreed. Practices felt that the additional collection would free up practice nurse time and room utilisation and more importantly improve the service offered to patients.

5. OADBY AND WIGSTON – Chair Dr Vivek Varakantam

August 2018

5.1 Update on Single AO and shared CCG Senior Team- Richard Palin updated the locality on the current position regarding a single accountable officer and shared senior team and the potential risks locally to the CCGs if progressions in these directions are not made. Practices raised concerns around funding models and whether the two county CCGs could come together. NHS England will be supporting the CCGs over the next couple of months with a further update expected in late autumn.

5.2 Joint Working: - Project leads were invited to update the locality on the agreed project areas. Good progress has been made, and there was continued enthusiasm to engage with transformation. Practices were encouraged to seek clarification from partners around the project developments

5.3 INR Yellow books: - Concerns were raised following the update at the last meeting. LPT have switched on electronic notification in addition to the yellow books currently. Notification of dual process hasn’t been clear and there are concerns around the pilot protocols.

Recommendation:

The East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body are requested to:

PRESENTER: Dr Richard Palin, Clinical Chair of CCB

PURPOSE OF THE REPORT: This report is from the Commissioning Collaborative Board (CCB); which is a joint committee of NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG, NHS West Leicestershire CCG and NHS Leicester City CCG. The CCB supports joint decision making and undertakes collective strategic decisions on those areas where authority has been delegated by the respective CCG Governing Bodies.

RECOMMENDATIONS: The East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body is requested to:

• RECEIVE the first report from CCB

Page 1 of 3 Paper K East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018

EAST LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND CLINICAL COMMISSIONING GROUP GOVERNING BODY MEETING 11 September 2018

Highlight Report from the Public Commissioning Collaborative Board (CCB) – August 2018 Introduction

1. The purpose of this report is for Commissioning Collaborative Board (CCB) to provide the Governing Body with an update of decisions made and escalate risks and issues identified.

2. CCB is a joint committee of NHS East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG, NHS West Leicestershire CCG and NHS Leicester City CCG. CCB’s role is to:

• Support CCGs to create a financial sustainable health system in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR); • Ensure clinically led co-design of service models for health services within LLR are safe, effective and efficient; • Provide a forum where commissioners can agree and align priorities and identify opportunities for further collaboration and consistency; and • Provide onward assurance to the respective Governing Bodies.

3. Key areas of discussion and outcomes from the August 2018 meeting are summarised below.

4. Progress on LLR Programme Management Office (PMO) and Finance QIPP Report: CCB received an update which indicated that at month 4 the LLR CCGs are forecasting full delivery on the QIPP plan for 2018/19 of £58.2m. CCB noted that a QIPP recovery plan is being developed with the aim of ensuring full delivery of the total QIPP plan is achieved.

5. CCB noted that further progress had been made in regards to completion of the QIPP schemes documentation to obtain confidence in delivery on a number of schemes. It was noted that the LLR CCGs QIPP plans are under close scrutiny by NHS England with further meeting to take place in August 2018 between the LLR CCGs and NHS England.

6. CCB members noted progress to date with further work underway in developing a QIPP recovery plan to achieve the delivery of the financial target. CCB members requested further update to be presented at the September 2018 meeting.

7. Safeguarding Report: It was reported that the Children’s Act 2004 has been superseded by the Children and Social Work Act 2017. This has resulted in the current Local Safeguarding Children’s Boards (LSCBs) to be disestablished and to be replaced by the new Safeguarding Partners.

8. In the new arrangements the CCGs will have a pivotal role along with the Local Authorities and the Police as the new Safeguarding Partners. CCB noted that the government has published a transitional guidance for all the organisations involved

Page 2 of 3 Paper K East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body meeting 11 September 2018 to instigate the required changes by September 2019. Further update to be provided once the changes have taken place.

9. Lessons Learnt to Improve Care Clinical Quality Audit: CCB noted that in 2014 the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR) Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs), along with the University Hospitals of Leicester (UHL) and Leicestershire Partnership Trust (LPT) undertook a clinical audit to examine the quality of care provided to a particular group of patients. A joint action plan was put in place to address the areas of improvement identified as a result of this audit.

10. A follow up audit was undertaken in April 2017. This time the Mazars, an international, and independent organisation specialised in audit, were commissioned to develop an audit tool. At the end of the audit, recommendations were provided by the Mazars. CCB noted that the recommendations have been reviewed and have identified some key themes to consider as the key strategic areas for improvement. CCB supported the action plan and implementation via some of the work-stream work.

11. Community Services Redesign: Following the previous report, CCB noted that a communication and engagement plan is now in place, with further GP engagement taking place via the locality meetings. It was reported that work is underway in regards to reviewing the capacity and demand modelling which will influence in determining the future model. CCB was informed that the plans for the three Multi- Disciplinary Team (MDT) early implementer sites have been agreed to test out once the model has been agreed.

Overview of Primary Care Contracting Policies – Update September 2018 – The Committee received an update on all NHS England Policies and Local Guidelines, which had been previously adopted in 2015 in line with the CCG delegated responsibility. It was noted that NHS England had reviewed a number of policies and guidelines; the majority of which have been incorporated into the Primary Medical Care Policy and Guidance Manual (PGM) that was published by NHS England in November 2017.

6. It was noted that existing procedures will continue to be used for the following documents as these had not been incorporated into the Primary Medical Care PGM to date:

• Managing the end of time limited contracts;

• Patient registration: Standard Operating Principles for Primary Medical Care (General Practice);

• Framework for patient and public participate in primary care commissioning.

7. The Committee approved:

• the continuation of documents not incorporated within the Primary Medical Care PGM and to refer to current versions until revised documents have been issued;

• that for all reference to merger applications, the CCG will make reference to both the ‘Application for Proposed Practice Mergers’ (local procedure) and the national policy under the Primary Medical Care PGM;

• the revised review dates for the following local policies as September 2019 due to no changes to the existing policies:

- Agreed Financial Assistance for Practices Experiencing the Impact of Dispersed Lists

- Application for Proposed Practice Mergers.

8. Sustainability and Transformational Partnership (STP): GP Programme Update – a progress report in relation to the STP GP Work Stream, which included the tracker for the GP Programme Board and the GP Retention Plan, was received.

9. It was noted that following the submission of a high level workforce plan in June 2018 to access additional funding to support the GP Retention Plan, an allocation of £142,393 has been awarded across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR), which is lower than anticipated. Work is also underway in order to evaluate GPs across the CCG who currently form part of the GP Retention Plan.

Recommendation:

10. The East Leicestershire and Rutland CCG Governing Body is requested to:
