Practice-based commissioning
Courage, conviction and culture
What’s PBC about PCTs have paid bills - not commissioned PBC ‘handed’ GPs 50%+ of PCT spend – in
Sheffield over £500 million! PBC gives GPs and PCTs finance/activity
data so can see where patients and money going
Spend not matched to need - Wanless says focus on long-term care of elderly/ LTCs
GP-led redesign to help realign spend
Courage
From a PBC Manager view… Barriers
How do I engage busy GPs? What I found works
Ask GPs to help you improve quality of patient care – not save money. But show them where the spend is now.
Find your lead GPs. Back them to the hilt practically. Get business cases for redesign approved – its why GPs do PBC.
