Four levels at which services can be negotiated NHS England national - CPCF Local Authorities Clinical Commissioning Groups NHS England local - Enhanced

The Third Pillar – supporting future NHS provision Community Pharmacy GP led primary care Hospitals Optimising the use of medicines Supporting people to self-care Supporting people to live healthier lives/public health Supporting people to live independently

Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF) Three players in negotiations – PSNC – NHS England / NHS Employers – Department of Health (DH) NHS England and DH have specific areas of responsibility

PSNC Community Pharmacy Conference - 24 April 2013 DH’s role Leading the nation’s health and care Sets legal framework for system, including regulations for pharmacy Secures funding from HM Treasury ‘System steward’ Determines NHS reimbursement price of medicines & appliances

NHS England Three distinct, but interconnected roles: 1.A leader and enabler of the overall commissioning system – supporting CCGs to commission services for their communities 2.A direct commissioner – securing continuously improving quality from the services we commission, including primary care 3.A system wide leader for quality improvement – collaborating with other parts of the system, including Public Health England and Health Education England

NHS England’s Mandate High quality care for all, now and for future generations Success will be measured through the NHS Outcomes Framework: Preventing people from dying prematurely Enhancing quality of life for people with long-term conditions Helping people to recover from episodes of ill health or following injury Ensuring people have a positive experience of care Treating and caring for people in a safe environment and protecting them from avoidable harm Effectiveness Domain Patient experience Safety

NHS England - local 27 Area Teams (AT) which are part of the Operations Directorate ‘Local’ office of NHS England – Direct commissioning of primary care – Specialist commissioning (e.g. offender health) – ‘Supervision’ of CCGs Single operating model Performance management of CPCF Commissioning of Enhanced services (including on behalf of CCGs and LAs)

NHS England - LPNs Local Professional Networks (LPNs) for pharmacy, optometry and dentistry within each AT They are intended to provide clinical input into the operation of the AT and local commissioning decisions They will: – support implementation of national strategy and policy at local level – work with other key stakeholders on the development and delivery of local priorities, some of which go beyond the scope of primary care commissioning – provide local clinical leadership

NHS England - LPNs Pharmacy LPN specific functions include: – supporting local authorities with the development of the Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA) – considering new programmes of work around self-care and long term conditions management in community pharmacy to achieve Outcome 2 of the NHS Outcomes Framework – working with CCGs and others on medicines optimisation – ‘holding the ring’ on services commissioned locally by local authorities (LAs) and CCGs, highlighting inappropriate gaps or overlaps

Local authorities 152 top tier authorities Public Health and Social Care Outcomes Frameworks influence their commissioning Responsible for commissioning the majority of public health services – Using a ring-fenced budget – Can use standard public health service contract A Health and Wellbeing Board (HWB) for each LA – providing strategic oversight and bringing together all local commissioners

Local authorities LAs and CCGs develop the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA), working through the HWB The JSNA is used to develop a Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy… …and informs the development of the Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment Which is used by the NHS England Area Team to determine some pharmacy market entry decisions

Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) Responsible for commissioning health services (as opposed to public health services) using the standard NHS contract All GP practices within the area of the CCG are ‘members’ Early focus on hospital contracts May wish to commission minor ailment services, palliative care schemes, MUR+ and other medicines optimisation services from community pharmacy
