PCNs in Oxfordshire

• 19 PCNs
• 100% population coverage
• 69 out of 70 practices a part of a PCN
• All PCNs meet the acceptance criteria in relation to set up

requirements

• CCG and LMC working in support of practices and now

PCNs to enable them to establish and develop

• Community providers across health and care engaging with

the PCNs to work towards multi disciplinary integrated care teams

• Greater resilience
• Free up GP time through additional workforce
• Peer support and better distribution of workload
• Co-operation across organisational boundaries
• Driving a more population-focussed approach
• Strengthening of primary care and less need to default to

hospital

PATIENTS

• More care closer to home
• Focus on prevention

Benefits for the patients and the public sector

GENERAL PRACTICE SYSTEM

Opportunities

• PCNs - the building blocks for integrated care
• Primary and community care service will be changing
• This is the beginning of that change
• There will be many opportunities for collaboration
• This is about more than NHS services
• Integrated multidisciplinary teams should include elements
• f health and care and give consideration to the wider social

determinants of health

• Some areas of the country have been advancing this work

as Vanguards and early ICS areas – the LTP recommends good practice based on these real life experiences

Additional Workforce

• A national workforce fund for 20,000+ additional

practice staff has been set to support PCN delivery

• This is a phased approach over the 5 year period:

From 2019/20

• clinical pharmacists and social prescribers / link workers

From 2020/21

• physician associates and first contact physiotherapists

From 2021/22

• Community Paramedics
• PCNs will have the opportunity to strengthen both the size

and clinical breadth of their workforce through this fund

Involving Communities

• Primary Care Networks are built on the Network

Direct Enhanced Services Contract they will evolve

• ver a 5 year period – this is year 1
• PCNs are 3 months old and they are still developing
• As an extension of the GMS contract engagement

with Practice Participation Groups is important

• However PCNs will be about much more that General

Practice and therefore

• PCNs are being actively encouraged to form links

with local people and communities

• Wokingham have been working on the

development and delivery of integrated care for some time

• Their approach covers health and care
• Patients and providers of services are now

reporting real benefits to their new ways of working What will it look like for patients?

So far

• Practices have worked hard to come together to form

PCNs – the contractual process was complex and delivered in a very tight timescale

• Now the focus on integration begins
• In this the first year of PCNs the focus is on better

and closer ways of working

• In future years this approach will become more

integrated across wider health and social care

PCN expectations by March 2020

Understand their own journey Making 100% use of their funding entitlement for additional roles Formed multi- disciplinary teams Starting to function as a single team Started work on

• ne service

improvement project (linked to Long Term Plan goals) Ready to deliver new national service specifications from April 2020 Started thinking about future estate needs, jointly with community partners Formed links with local people + communities Part of a ‘network of PCNs’

Points to consider

• What learning from PPGs could support and facilitate

wider community involvement?

• How can local communities support the development
• f integrated services that respond to patient need?
• What role is there for communities to support

individuals in self care of both mental and physical health?
