Haringey Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG)
Dr Peter ChristianHaringey GP and CCG Governing Body member
What is Haringey CCG?
• Clinical Commissioning Group or CCG• A new NHS organisation, led by
Haringey GPs• A membership organisation made up of
all 52 GP practices in Haringey working together
• Led by a governing body• As well as GPs, there is also a nurse, an
A&E doctor and two ‘lay’ members on the CCG’s governing body
• Haringey CCG has replaced Haringey Primary Care Trust

What does the CCG do?
• The CCG is responsible for planning, paying for and monitoring health services for people who live in Haringey (this is called commissioning)
• The services that we commission include:– Hospital services
– Community services e.g. district nursing, physiotherapy
– Mental health services
3
What the CCG doesn’t do
• GPs, pharmacists, optometrists and dentists (primary care services) are not commissioned by Haringey CCG.
• These services are commissioned and monitored by a new organisation call NHS England
• However, the CCG still wants to make sure that primary care services are of the highest quality.

How is the CCG different?
• Patients in England make 300 million visits to their GP each year and are more likely to see their GP than any other health professional.
• This means GPs have a really good understanding of what their patients need.
• GPs, in their CCG role, use this knowledge to help decide what services are commissioned
