Margaret Geary welcomed members to the meeting, noted the apologies as above and reminded those present of the following: • The meeting is not a public meeting and therefore no participation from members of the

NHS England • In order to support the management of any conflicts of interests, the Chair is a lay

member of the CCG. • The Chair will determine action to be taken where members declare a conflict in line

with the CCG’s policies.

5. GP Patient Survey results

Members were informed of the latest GP Patient Survey (GPPS) results. The report reflected that results were generally lower than both national and comparative CCG areas, and were declining against previous results. The range across practices was also noted and it was advocated that any learning points should be shared. The data had previously been shared at the CCG’s Quality and Safety Executive Committee where it was agreed that the Primary Care Team will work collaboratively to identify and try to address specific issues that may be relative to access. Results relating to perception of care were positive and the Committee agreed this reflected well on the Health Care Professionals.

Members raised the following:

• Educate patients on how to make use of available resources and allow them time to adjust to such changes within the practice.

• Review the results in more detail and discuss with practices to better understand the issues.

Steve McInnes will set up a Task and Finish group to look at the results, particularly in relation to access. Steve will also engage with other local CCGs to share intelligence and discuss findings.

Action: S McInnes The Primary Care Commissioning Committee noted the report.

6. Personal Medical Services (PMS) Reinvestment – Commissioning Intentions

David Scarborough the Practice Manager Representative working within Primary Care and Dr Elizabeth Fellows, Chair of Governing Board and GP of the Committee, declared an indirect conflict of interest with information contained with the paper. Margaret Geary, as the Chair, agreed that David Scarborough and Dr Elizabeth Fellows could participate in the discussion but not in any decision-making.

Terri Russell spoke to the PMS Reinvestment – Commissioning Intentions paper that included previously approved principles for reinvestment and additional proposed schemes. The additional proposed schemes would make use of further reinvestment monies both in this financial year and recurrently going forward. Members were provided with an explanation of the origins of each new scheme and the estimated funding requirements.

Additional schemes in 2019/2020

• Long action reversible contraception (LARC) for non-contraceptive reasons Local Commissioned Service - £40k

• Safeguarding Local Commissioned Service - £60k • Ear irrigation Local Commissioned Service - £90k

Agreed Actions:

• Share specification outside of this Committee with group members • Work out where practices have not been claiming and share with the group.

Action: T Russell

Committee members were asked to approve the outlined Commissioning Intentions.

The Primary Care Commissioning Committee will approve the final scheme outside of the meeting.

7. Care Navigation update Chris Horan provided an overview of the Care Navigation Programme which supports Care Navigators in identifying and actively signposting patients and carers to the most relevant healthcare service for them at that time.

Members raised the following:

• Roger Batterbury raised a concern that practices should be allowed adequate time to adjust to changes.

• Chris Horan highlighted that the data indicated that not all practices were using the locally developed SystmOne Care Navigation template; this did not mean that practices were not Care Navigating.

• Jo York said that this is a good opportunity to take to non-clinical TARGET. • Terri Russell suggested that to help embed Care Navigation into practice it is integral

that practice management is involved in supporting their staff in the development of new processes and ways of working within practices.

• Dr Elizabeth Fellows commented that it would be useful for The Lighthouse Group Practice who has the highest users of the template to share what they are doing with other practices, to help other staff members to understand the system and the process they have embedded.

• Further to a question by Jackie Powell, Chris Horan confirmed that You Trust is part of the Social Prescribing.

The following Actions were agreed:

• Work and support practices around areas of improvement. • Look at ways of increasing utilisation of the locally developed SystmOne Care

Navigation template. • Provide training and develop a close working relationship with practices, one of the

options would be individual practice visits. • Liaise with Care Navigators and discuss how Primary Care can support them. • Look at ways of embedding Care Navigators into practices. • Identify super users in practices. • Bring back an update every six months.

Action: C Horan

Committee members were asked to receive the information provided in the report.

The Primary Care Commissioning Committee received the report

8. Primary Care Finance M06 2019/20 Dr Clare Sieber raised a question around the tracked spending figure on the Primary Care Finance 2019/20 report. Rebecca Spandley will clarify the current Primary Care financial position at the next meeting.

Action: R Spandley The Primary Care Commissioning Committee agreed that the Finance report will be carried forward to the next meeting.

9. Ear Irrigation within Primary Care David Scarborough the Practice Manager Representative working within Primary Care and Dr Elizabeth Fellows, Chair of Governing Board and GP of the Committee, declared an indirect conflict of interest with information contained with the paper. Margaret Geary, as the Chair, agreed that David Scarborough and Dr Elizabeth Fellows could participate in the discussion but not in any decision-making. Committee members worked through the proposed Locally Commissioned Service (LCS) i for the removal of ear wax within Primary Care. The proposal considered a new LCS or adding to an existing Basket LCS with an estimated finance around £90k. In both cases, Personal Medical Services Re-investment monies could be utilised to secure recurrent funding. Steve McInnes reported that a recent survey of GP practices recognised that 9 practices in Portsmouth are currently providing a service, with 5 practices referring patients elsewhere. Due to difficulties in maintaining competencies and keeping equipment in good working order, there is at least 2 practices strongly considering withdrawing from this service in the near future. Members raised the following:

• Dr Elizabeth Fellows raised a concern regarding the on-going costs of replacing insufficient quality equipment on a yearly basis.

• Dr Clare Sieber suggested a buddy arrangement should be considered to enable practices to share equipment.

• Julia O’Mara highlighted an inequality for patients across the city that are currently unable to access this service, and explained that not enough nurses are adequately trained to inspect the ear.

• Julia O’Mara asked if the new LCS will cover house bound patients. It was advised this wold be a community care responsibility.

• Steve McInnes said that he felt the new service would make good use of PMS reinvestment funds in Primary Care.

Steve McInnes will consult with the Local Medical Committee further regarding tariffs.

Action: S McInnes The Primary Care Commissioning Committee agreed the proposal in principle.

10. Review of Practice Merger

David Scarborough the Practice Manager Representative working within Primary Care and Dr Elizabeth Fellows, Chair of Governing Board and GP of the Committee, declared an indirect conflict of interest with information contained with the paper. Margaret Geary, as the Chair, agreed that David Scarborough and Dr Elizabeth Fellows could participate in the discussion but not in any decision-making.

Steve McInnes provided an update on the recent Practice Merger between The Devonshire Practice and Southsea Medical Centre, now known as The Lighthouse Group Practice. The merger had helped ensure services were sustained for patients and both the practice and the CCG felt the merger had been very positive. The timing had co-incided with some new initiatives and changes to the workforce, which had a positive impact on services. Steve thanked Andrew Clarke, Practice Manager, for leading the merger and for his considerable

Page 17: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

7

hard work and effort during the process. All of the staff had worked tirelessly to ensure the merger went as smoothly as possible. The practice will undertake a patient survey in November, in order to gauge patient’s opinions around the merger and the new processes in place. Steve McInnes will share the results of the patient survey and provide an update at a future meeting.

Action: S McInnes Committee members were asked to receive the report. The Primary Care Commissioning Committee noted the report.

11. Any Other Business The CCG offices will be completely closed on the 27 December 2019. All GP practices have their individual continuity plan and aware of CCG on-call arrangements.

12. Date of Next Meeting

The next Primary Care Commissioning Committee meeting to be held in public will take place on Thursday 30 January 2020.

1. Introduction 1.1 Under Section 96 of the NHS Act (2006), NHS commissioners may provide additional

assistance and support to providers of Primary Care services.

1.2 The type and level of support provided is down to commissioner discretion, and can include financial assistance.

1.3 This support mechanism should only be used in exceptional circumstances, usually when a provider of Primary Care services is facing crisis. The aim of the support is to identify and resolve current issues, to assist in formulating a long-term sustainable solution, and to help build long-term resilience.

1.4 The intention of this paper is to outline a policy for NHS Portsmouth CCG with regards to support given under Section 96 of the NHS Act. The policy will outline the circumstances in which it would be suitable to utilise Section 96, and also when it would be appropriate to issue financial assistance under this support mechanism. It will also recommend the procedure to be followed when a request for discretionary support is received from a Primary Care provider.

2. Background 2.1 Primary Care is facing unprecedented demands. Nationally, an aging population,

increasing workload and challenges in recruiting GPs pose significant challenges to the continued delivery of high quality Primary Care services.

2.2 These issues are being experienced locally, which poses significant risk to the provision of Primary Care services in Portsmouth.

2.3 There are programmes that offer assistance and support (including financial support) to GP Practices. The General Practice Forward View (GPFV) published by NHS England in April 2016, includes a General Practice Resilience Programme, which incorporates the previously announced Vulnerable Practices Programme. The GPRP aims to identify and support GP Practices in difficulty.

2.4 However, the GPRP does not cover or replace all circumstances where there is a need for support. Local intelligence may suggest a GP Practice is facing challenges, but they do not qualify for support through a national programme, or that support under this programme is not available to be able to respond to need in a timely way.

2.5 Section 96 of the NHS Act details a statutory provision to make support available to a GP practice.

Page 26: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Page 3 of 11

2.6 This statutory provision may include financial assistance. In this instance, principles of

transparency should apply, ensuring a precedent is not set, with consideration to the alternative likely consequences if financial assistance is not provided.

2.7 Any financial assistance awarded will be within the confines of commissioners’ budgets and allocations. Therefore, any award of financial assistance will entail the identification of necessary funding and may impact on the CCG’s ability to fund other commitments.

2.8 When an application for discretionary support is received, the approval process followed must be fair, transparent and must reflect the Scheme of Delegation, within NHS Portsmouth CCG’s Standing Financial Instructions. This document will outline the procedure to be followed.

3. Statutory provision 3.1 Section 96 of the National Health Service Act 2006 provides a route for awarding

financial assistance to providers of primary medical services. It states:

96 Assistance and support: primary medical services

(1) The Board may provide assistance or support to any person providing or proposing to provide–

- primary medical services pursuant to section 83(2),

- primary medical services under a general medical services contract, or

- primary medical services in accordance with section 92 arrangements.

(2) Assistance or support provided by the Board under subsection (1) is provided on such terms, including terms as to payment, as the Board considers appropriate.

(3) “Assistance” includes financial assistance.

Reference: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2006/41/section/96

Page 27: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Page 4 of 11

4. Local Application 4.1 When would this statutory provision be appropriate to use?

4.1.1 As detailed in paragraph 2.3, there are programmes that offer assistance and support (including financial support) to GP Practices. All other routes of support should be explored prior to considering use of Section 96.

4.1.2 Section 96 is a statutory provision designed to offer short term and immediate support to providers of primary medical services. The provision is not designed to offer long term financial assistance to providers of primary medical services.

4.1.3 Commissioners should not use this mechanism to circumvent other provisions within the NHS Act or the terms of a providers GMS/PMS contract. Any funding awarded should take note of the General Medical Services Statement of Financial Entitlements.

4.1.4 Funding must not contradict the intent of the NHS Forward View which requires equity of global sum for the delivery of general medical services.

4.2 What could the assistance be used for? 4.2.1 Within Section 96 of the NHS Act, there are no specifically defined

circumstances in which this support can be utilised. 4.2.2 A general principle guiding the use of this support mechanism is that it should

only be utilised when all other routes have been explored. It should also be the opinion of the commissioner that without this assistance the risk of a provider being unable to continue to deliver primary medical services is unacceptably high.

4.3 It should be noted that individual decisions to agree assistance for providers of primary medical care services do not set a precedent for the future.

5. Criteria for awarding assistance and support 5.1 Prior to considering the issuing of assistance and support under Section 96 GP practices

should demonstrate to commissioners that they have both looked out and looked in for alternative solutions to the challenges they are facing.

5.2 Looking out requires GP practices to explore opportunities for working together with others, for example in order to develop shared back-office services and to find collective ways of delivering primary care at scale. It also requires providers to consider accessing alternative routes of support, such as the previously described General Practice Resilience Programme.

Page 28: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Page 5 of 11

5.3 Looking in requires GP practices to consider whether they have explored options to improve the situation, for example; proposing closure of their list or, changes to their boundary. In extreme circumstances a practice may consider changes to provision from or even closure of a branch surgery site.

5.4 Diagnostic tools are available to assist practices with analysing the current situation from a variety of sources and the LMC or CCG Primary Care team can assist GP practices in this regard.

5.5 If looking out or looking in fails to produce solutions to assist GP practices in addressing the challenges they are facing, issuing of assistance, including financial assistance, under Section 96 may be considered by commissioners. Equally, if GP practices are unable or ill equipped to find internal or locality based solutions they may be eligible for Immediately Necessary Support (see section 6 below) prior to (and perhaps mitigating against) a Section 96 application.

5.6 Consideration must be made to the impact if support is not provided and the provider is unable to continue to deliver the service.

5.7 In order to assess eligibility for financial assistance, the following framework sets out

what will be considered in deciding on whether or not to issue funding. Each scenario will be addressed on a case by case basis using this framework for guidance.

Page 29: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Page 6 of 11

5.8 All financial assistance must be provided within the principles of openness, fairness, probity and accountability.

5.9 Financial Assistance must demonstrate value for money and be in the best interests of the commissioner and the patients.

5.10 Financial Assistance must be proportionate to the identified need and represent better value for the taxpayer than alternative solutions.

6. Immediate Necessary Support

6.1 There are times when GP practices find themselves in a crisis situation and require immediate support. This is often a clinical need but can also be related to managerial/operational responsibilities.

6.2 In these circumstances the CCG will consider funding resources that have been tried and tested for practices locally and proven to provide value for money immediate support for GP practices.

No Criteria Rationale 1 There must be evidenced extenuating circumstances within the

practice population related to: 1. Workload 2. Patient demographics 3. Significant change in service provision 4. Sudden or significant change to service requirements This evidence may include an IMD score of 35 or higher for the practice population, a sudden increase in list size or evidence that local demographics dictate workload is not adequately reflected in the Carr Hill funding formula. This is proven by evidence of the downward weighting applied through the funding formula.

Evidence of the consequential impact on a practice workload must be provided.

2 No doctor in the practice should have declared pensionable earnings in excess of £99,969 p.a. (apportioned as relevant for part time GPs). This figure will be reviewed every year in line with nationally-available data.

Support not designed to increase pensionable income of GP’s.

3 The practice has been unable to access support through the GP resilience programme, or the funding available was insufficient to develop or implement a recovery plan (if applicable)

Ensure only appropriate resilience or viability issues are funded through Section 96.

4 The funding must be non-recurrent, and the practice has a plan in place to recover the position.

As per the guidance.

Page 30: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Page 7 of 11

6.3 The support available for GP practices will be time limited, and still require the S96 short form to be completed, but can be signed off by the Director of New Models of Care, Deputy Director of Primary Care and Finance Lead (or refer to Scheme of Delegation). The CCG will aim to seek approval within 1 week.

6.4 Funding will predominantly be made available for the LMC PM and/or GP supporter programmes although other support may be considered, as long as it does not exceed £5,000 (for example specialist financial or legal advice).

6.5 Practices in receipt of Immediate Necessary Support are not excluded from making a

full Section 96 application if it is still warranted, but in many instances it is expected that further support will not be required.

6.6 Total support made available through this route should not exceed £25,000.

support. - The level of support being requested and the level being

recommended. - Whether the GP Practice has applied for and/or received any

funding (whether from any NHS or government body, or commercially) that relates to same subject matter of the Section 96 application.

- Whether the GP Practice is already identified under any national or local programme providing support.

- Confirmation of what practical and financial support the GP Practice has already invested to resolve these issues.

- How long is the support anticipated to be needed (either to achieve a resolution or to prepare a business case for longer term support) generally no more than a maximum £200,000 or 3 months funding should be considered (apart from in exceptional circumstances).

- If financial support is being recommended, how this will be paid. - The GP Practice need for the financial assistance has been

validated. - The case represents value for money. - Financial assistance is a better option than any alternatives. - Whether the CCG will ‘clawback’ any financial support given under

Section 96, and how this will be actioned. - Confirmation that the GP Practice agrees to receive the support

and any conditions placed on the support including confirmation of any conditions.

- Performance Management arrangements in respect of the financial assistance.

- Details of the GP Practices plan to recover the position, and demonstrate that the short term support will deliver a sustainable solution in the long term to ensure that the support is non-recurrent.

- Confirmation that the expenditure is in the “normal course of business” for primary medical care.

- Confirmation that there is no reason why greater transparency is required in respect of the payment.

- With regards to financial assistance, confirmation that there is no additional obligation being placed on the CCG as a result of the financial assistance, that this financial assistance does not arise out

The completed application and Business Case should then be considered for support by the Primary Care Contract Review Group.

There should be at least the following members attending the Group:

- CCG Representative (with authority to approve the financial assistance, as per the CCG’s Standing Financial Instructions)

- CCG Primary Care team representative

- CCG Finance team representative

- CCG Lay member

- NHS England representative

- LMC representative

Where, in exceptional circumstances, the financial assistance is above £200,000 the business case must be endorsed by:

• The Finance team, to confirm the availability of funding within the existing budget.

• Budget holders for confirmation of use of this financial assistance, and

• Legal advice to confirm correct use of the Financial Assistance power.

Primary Care Contract Review

Group

Once the Primary Care Contract Review Group has agreed to support the application and Business Case (and both are signed by the CCG Representative with authority to approve the financial assistance), these should then be taken to Primary Care Commissioning Committee (Part II) for formal approval.

It is recommended that all applications, where financial assistance totals up to £100,000, should be taken to PCCC for approval.

All applications requesting financial assistance of over £100,000 should be taken to PCCC, and then to Governing Board for approval.

GP Practice GP Practice Code Date Application received from Practice Summary of GP Practice’s application, and reasoning for applying for discretionary support

Summary of support being recommended

With regards to the above question, if the support recommended is financial, what value is being recommended?

Has the GP Practice applied for, and/or has the GP Practice received any funding that relates to same subject matter of the discretionary support application?

Is the GP Practice already identified under any national or local programme providing support? If so, please reference the scheme and the level of support provided.

What practical and financial support has the GP Practice already invested to resolve issues?

For what period of time is the support required?

How will the support be made available to the GP Practice? Comment on how the support will be made available to the Practice. For example, will the financial support be one payment, or funding split across 3 months, etc.

Page 45: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

[Type text]

Has the need for financial support been validated by the CCG? Does the financial support being recommended offer Value for Money? What is the likely overall risk to the CCG? Yes/No Financial evidence including certified accounts for the previous year and management accounts for the current year, cash flow, declared earnings etc. need to be reviewed by the CCG. Explain why the recommendation represents VFM for the CCG, and why financial assistance is a better option than any alternatives.

Is part of the recommendation to ‘clawback’ any financial support made available? If so, please note the value to be recovered by the CCG.

Are there any conditions that the CCG will be placing on the support being recommended? Has the GP Practice accepted these conditions? Explain if there are any actions to be put in place and monitored as conditions to receiving the support, etc.

What is the GP Practice’s recovery plan? The plan should demonstrate that the short term support will deliver a sustainable solution in the long term to ensure that the support is non-recurrent.

Page 46: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

[Type text]

Please summarise any other options that have been considered, with reasoning as to why they are not recommended in this business case.

Declaration with regards to financial assistance being recommended (Please check that this is applicable, and that it is true in this case)

The CCG confirms there is no additional obligation being placed on the CCG as a result of the financial support being recommended, that this financial support does not arise out of a dispute or claim nor is there any fault or issue which a court may hold requires a payment must be made.

‘Axe the Fax’ Campaign From 31st March 2020 all fax machines will be banned across the NHS under plans to overhaul outdated technology and IT systems, from this date all NHS organisations will be required to use modern communication methods such as secure email, to improve patient safety and cyber security. A national campaign ‘Axe the Fax’ has been created in order to support this initiative. The CCG Primary Care team have been working with practices and services to review current working processes and ensure alternative secure communication methods are put in place. In order to prepare for switch off the following services have been or are being engaged with:

• Local GP practices • F&G & SEH Clinical Commissioning Group • Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust • Solent NHS Trust • Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust • Care UK • Portsmouth City Council • Portsmouth Community Pharmacies • Dentists • Optometrists • Portsmouth Care Homes

A range of activity has taken place locally to support the national campaign, which includes: GP Practices:

• All practices have an action plan in place in preparation for the 31st March 2020 • Each practice carried out an audit during October 2019 of all incoming and outgoing

faxes over a 1 week period, their findings were shared with the CCG • Practice contact information has been shared with the relevant services

Services:

• Engagement has taken place with the above services • Ardens and the Primary Care team have been contacting services with fax as their

referral method and requesting an alternative (i.e. NHS.net email addresses) • Referral methods updated on relevant forms and Ardens template • NHS.net addresses received have all been added to the CCG Contacts SystmOne

Address book On a local system level, we are on track to meet the deadline of fax switch off on 31st March 2020.

10 Title

The Trafalgar Medical Group Practice request for additional GMS space

Purpose of Paper

The Trafalgar Medical Group Practice has worked out of its own Osborne Road premises and the Eastney Health Centre for over 30 years. Following the merger with the Ramillies Practice in 2016 the Ramillies Practice site in Victoria Road South closed and services moved into either Osborne Road or Eastney Health Centre. Additional GMS space was agreed at both sites, which is now at capacity. The loss of clinical and administrative space from the closure of the Ramillies Practice did not meet the total additional space acquired in 2016 at Osborne Road or Eastney Health Centre. This is limiting the scope for additional clinics and services. Eastney Health Centre has vacant space throughout the health centre. On the 1 April 2018 Trafalgar Medical Group Practice merged with the Eastney Practice to form a larger more sustainable Practice. The Eastney Practice was located in Eastney Health Centre, which was collocated within the same area of Eastney Health Centre as the Trafalgar Medical Group Practice. Trafalgar Medical Group Practice is requesting additional GMS reimbursable space in the void space that is within the Practice area. This will allow the Practice to provide services and be managed in a much more efficient manner. Security for the Practice can also be improved, for both patients and staff, as Trafalgar Medical Group Practice will be the sole user of this wing of Eastney Health Centre. Trafalgar Medical Group Practice currently consists of 6 GP Partners and 8 salaried GPs. It also has a growing nurse and HCA team. The additional space is required to enable additional clinical sessions to be provided increasing access and for storage and admin support. The practice is requesting 5 additional rooms with a total NIA of 43m2

and a share of the common areas which increases the request to 66.6m2. The cost of rent for these rooms is £9,660 per annum. As this space is currently void the CCG is already paying for the space and additionally service and management charges at a cost of £22,444. If approved there would be a saving to the CCG as the practice would pay the service and management costs of the currently void space. It should be noted that the two clinical rooms will require funding of approximately £9k for each room to be refurbished to the required standard which will be requested via a Minor Improvement Grant.

Page 56: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Recommendations/ Actions requested

The Primary Care Commissioning Committee is requested to recommend approval for the additional 66.6m2 of GMS space at a reimbursable rental cost of £9,660 for the Trafalgar Medical Group at Eastney Health Centre. .

Revision 18th June 2019 Review Date: April 2020 Page 2 of 14

PURPOSE OF APPLICATION Practices should use this application form to notify NHS England of all changes, or increases requested, to the approved reimbursable General Medical Services (GMS) space; this includes space outside of the Practice. For example: Changes in room usage i.e. a Meeting Room being converted to two Consulting Rooms. External Changes i.e. existing Parking Space being used for other purposes, planned extensions etc. Redesign of the Reception potentially leading to the loss of GMS Space i.e. a smaller waiting area

for patients, creation of further Administration space via the decrease in Reception Area space. Approval is required in advance for any changes made that may potentially impact on the actual or notional rent reimbursement the Practice receives as defined within the NHS (GMS – Premises Costs) Directions 2013 and to ensure a complete record of changes is available to support future current market rent assessments for reimbursement purposes. COMPLETION OF APPLICATION FORM This application form should be completed by a representative of the Practice i.e. Senior Partner, Practice Manager or other delegated member of staff. Exceptionally, it may be completed by a third party contracted to provide premises advice and support to the practice. It is the responsibility of said representative to provide NHS England with this completed application form and any further requested information in a timely fashion. Representatives of NHS England will only help to facilitate the completion of the form and cannot complete the application form on behalf of the Practice. Once completed, this application form should be submitted electronically to the following for processing.

NOTES Please read and digest the Premises Costs Directions 2013 document prior to completing this

application form. The document contains information relating to the responsibilities of NHS England (the “Board”) and a Practice (the “Contractor”); and also the costs which can potentially be reimbursed by NHS England.

NHS Cost Directions 2013

Any and all potential changes to General Medical Services (GMS) space should be brought to the

attention of NHS England prior any changes being undertaken. NHS England will not commit to any level of retrospective funding for unauthorised changes made to General Medical Services (GMS) space, therefore the GP Practice will be held liable for any and all associated costs.

CHANGE(S) TO GENERAL MEDICAL SERVICES (GMS) SPACE REQUESTED Change Effective From: ASAP For TMGP to take on the following additional rooms at Eastney Health Centre (EHC): Room 41 – Currently Unoccupied Room 43– Currently Unoccupied Room 47– Currently Unoccupied Room 53– Currently Unoccupied Room 57– Currently Unoccupied The above will provide 2 additional clinical rooms + office space for EHC manager and additional much needed administrative and storage space.

Page 61: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Revision 18th June 2019 Review Date: April 2020 Page 5 of 14

REASON FOR THE CHANGE The Trafalgar Medical Group Practice (TMGP) has worked out of its own Osborne Road premises and the Eastney Health Centre (EHC) for over 30 years. Following the merger with the Ramillies Practice (RP) in 2016 it closed the RP old site in Victoria Road South and moved all its services into either Osborne Road or EHC. In doing so it acquired additional GMS space at both sites, but immediately this was used at capacity. The loss of clinical and administrative space from the closure of RP did not meet the total additional space acquired in 2016 at Osborne Road or EHC. This is limiting the scope for additional clinics and services. Significant savings were made in rent for GMS services following the closure of RP. EHC currently has spare space throughout. On the 1st April 2018 TMGP merged with the Eastney Practice to form a larger more sustainable Practice. The Eastney Practice was located in EHC, which was collocated within the same area of EHC as TMGP. If TMGP is successful with this bid it will take up the redundant space within the area the Practice is currently located. This will allow the Practice to provide services and be managed in a much more efficient manner. Security for the Practice can also be improved, for both patients and staff, as TMGP will be the sole user of this area of EHC. Since the 2018, TMGP has had considerable success in recruiting GPs and other clinical staff. Therefore this is allowing the Practice to provide more GP sessions than it did prior to that merger. This has placed considerable pressure on its clinical space at both Osborne Road and EHC. As the Practice has grown the administration of services and the Practice as a whole has had to grow to keep up with the development of the Practice and initiatives to free up clinician time e.g. workflow redirection and use of online services. The additional administration and management space will allow this part of the Practice to function more efficiently. TMGP currently consists of 6 GP Partners and 8 salaried GPs. It also has a growing nurse and HCA team. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS Current Rent (£): Last Rent Review Date: The diagram below provides details of the rent, service and facilities management costs associated with these additional rooms:

Post Code: CURRENT SPACE LIMITATIONS TMGP GMS space across both its site is working at capacity. There is no space options for increasing the level or type of service the Practice provides

FUTURE SPACE UTILISATION Clinical Admin Patients Other Room 41 – Currently Unoccupied This room will be utilised for storage of medical and non-medical items. Lots of space is being taken up in clinical rooms for storage. We may also use this area to house the photocopier and ancillary stationary / paper Room 43– Currently Unoccupied This small area will be used to house a post room. This will free up valuable space in a cluttered reception area

Page 64: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Revision 18th June 2019 Review Date: April 2020 Page 8 of 14

Room 47– Currently Unoccupied Likely to be used for an HCA, it will become a clinical room This room will need to be converted from its current fit out Likely projected cost for this room will be £9000 Room 53– Currently Unoccupied Likely to be used for an GP / Nurse, it will become a clinical room This room will need to be converted from its current fit out Likely projected cost for this room will be £9000 Room 57– Currently Unoccupied This room will be converted to a non-clinical room. Likely to become a Managers’ Office and be used for hot desking amongst the management team CURRENT SERVICES DELIVERED BY THE PRACTICE CQC Statement of Purpose Part 3 attached.

20191014 - Statement of Purpose

IMPACT ON SERVICE PROVISION Approval of this application will provide the Practice with greater flexibility and ability to increase the number of clinical sessions it provides.

Page 65: Primary Care Commissioning Committee AGENDA

Revision 18th June 2019 Review Date: April 2020 Page 9 of 14

DEMOGRAPHICS (e.g. growth list size, health of the local population, health inequalities, etc.) PLEASE PROVIDE SPECIFIC EVIDENCE Current list size = 23,538 (as of 23 Dec 19). Local knowledge of local primary care provision within the Practice catchment area indicates that our list size is likely to grow throughout the medium term future.

IT IMPLICATIONS (please detail any infrastructure changes necessary and associated costs) IT Rooms 43, 47, 53 and 57 will also require IT infrastructure. Bid for the works will be submitted to the CSU. TELEPHONE Rooms 47, 53 and 57 will require telephone extensions. Our current telephone provider will be able to undertake this work for us. Our current system is sufficiently modern that it can easily be extended to take on this additional requirement. The Practice is likely to submit a Premises Improvement Grant bid to refurbish the additional clinical rooms and it may include this work depending on the time frame within which this application may be approved.
