317B Summary of LMC Meeting 11th September
Counselling services: this review has been postponed until 2013.
ADHD Prescribing: a LES is being developed to enable GPs to prescribe for ADHD patients.
Treatment of patients by Croydon Health Services: Work is being done to re-establish cross border arrangements following examples of Bromley patients being referred back to their GP. If you have examples please send them to the LMC office.
Outcome Standards: Members agreed to share Bromley practice data on childhood immunisation, cytology and patients changing practice to bring us into line with the rest of London.
Performance Management: The level of compliance in Bromley compared to elsewhere is very good.
Training budget: The capitation budget for each practice has been removed following several years of underspend. The PCT will however continue to support access to Travax.
CCG: the authorisation consultation continues and the CCG will continue to work with the LMC on getting the constitution right.
Out of Hospital Care: GPs are invited to an event on 24th September to discuss how to manage the care of older and complex patients in the community.
Mental Health: the AHD on 22nd November will cover Dementia, CAMHS services and Personality Disorders.
SLHT: Steve Russell (Chief Operating Officer) gave an update on the current situation under the Trust Special Administrator. A new IT system (Cerner) will go live from 5th November which will link the three hospital sites properly but teething problems are to be expected. He promised to involve GPs and keep them informed in advance.
Bromley Healthcare: is focussing on ‘integrated discharge’ and ‘villages of care’ to group services around GP practices for which more information will be available at their event on 20 September. Any practice interested in providing an anticoagulation service (see News Update 316) who would like help with submitting the documentation can contact BHC.
317C Flu payments
GMS practices will be pleased to know that after intervention by the LMC, Jill Webb and Angela Bhan have agreed that flu payments will be made on an item of service basis again this year and not as a block payment at the end of the financial year.
317D Patient Transport – GP authorisation
A practice has said that transport operators are now requesting ‘written’ authorisation that a patient needs transport before they will book patients in. Please will you let us know if you have had similar requests so that we can gauge the extent of the problem.
217E Safeguarding Children
Following a recent serious incident the paediatricians have clarified the procedure for GPs referring non mobile babies with possible non accidental injuries:
GPs should refer straight to the hospital and the on-call Consultant Paediatrician will liaise with Consultant Paediatrician at Phoenix Centre to determine the most appropriate setting for examination.(If GPs do refer non mobile babies for a Child Protection Medical to Phoenix Centre the paediatrician will liaise with the on-call consultant at the PRUH to determine the most appropriate setting for examination).
There is general agreement that where non mobile children need full evaluation, including ophthalmic and skeletal examinations, these cases will be seen in the hospital. At present, whoever the GP refers to will hold the case and feed back to the GP rather than the GP having to speak to lots of different individuals.
217F Practice Move – Knoll Medical Practice
Knoll Medical Practice was formed by the merger of Knoll Rise and Sevenoaks Road practices in July and is moving to new premises at 64 Sevenoaks Road, Orpington BR6 9JL on 1st October. Their contact numbers are Tel: 01689 824563/830374 Fax: 01689 820712
217G Fair telecoms
New rules have now been applied to NHS bodies and contractors that forbid the use of 0844 telephone numbers. Practices still operating these numbers should take steps to change to the equivalent 0344 number which will be charged at the standard geographical rate.
