Mental Health Commissioning for the People of Corby Pat McCarthy

Who we are and what we aim to cover

• The Joint Commissioning Team commissions mental health

services for:– NHS Corby CCG– NHS Nene CCG– Northamptonshire County Council

• Our Commissioning strategy - informed by 4 Strategies – Nation Mental Health strategy, No Health without Mental

health– Northamptonshire Joint Adult Mental Health Strategy – National Dementia Strategy– CAMHs Strategy

• The Financial context• Commissioning Intentions for 2013/14• Table top discussion to hear your views

Why Commissioning of Mental Health Services is Important for CCGs

• At any one time 20% of women & 17% of men are affected by depression or anxiety

• Mental Illness accounts for £77 billion of lost productivity each year

• 20% of total disease burden is attributable to mental illness compared to cardiovascular disease (16.2%) and cancer (15.6%)

• Mental Illness begins early – 10% of children have diagnosable MH condition & 50% of lifetime mental illness is present by age of 14

• No other health condition matches mental ill health in the combined extent of prevalence, persistence and breadth of impact

• Demographics of people with dementia in the UK :– In 2008 - 700,000 costing £17 billion– In 2038 -1.4 million costing over £50 billion– 1 in 4 people aged 80+ have dementia

• People with Serious Mental Illness are high users of general health services:– Lifestyle factors – smoking & obesity– Substance misuse– Medically unexplained symptoms– Psychological elements of long term conditions

• Northamptonshire CCG’s spend £128m on Mental Health services – higher than average of similar CCGs

Mental Health Strategic Objectives

Mental Health• Northants Adult Mental Health Strategy 2009 anticipated many themes

of national strategy “No Health Without Mental Health” published in 2011– Focus on Well-being, resilience building & prevention (at population

Living Well with Dementia (National Strategy)– Improve dementia pathway including care in primary care – Improve diagnosis and early support and intervention– Improve support for carers and carers well being– Improve care in hospitals and care homes– Establish memory assessment services– Reduce use of anti-psychotic medication

Our shared principles and values

• People are part of families whose members will have their own needs and knowledge to share, the value of friends and being part of a community are essential to mental health

• Personalisation • Co-production• Recovery • Prevention• Collaborative care• Partnerships in pathway working • Values-based and evidence-based practice

What has been achieved

• Partnership work with Northamptonshire County Council in commissioning of new dementia workforce training

Financial context

• In 2012/13 Northamptonshire CCGs will spend £128m on mental health services for all care groups

• The Mental Health programme spend includes the costs of :– primary care mental health and secondary care

mental health services (more than half spent with main NHS mental health provider)

– services which are very specialist and which local commissioners do not control

– substance misuse services– mental Health prescribing

• Northamptonshire CCGs spend approximately £12m more per year than average on mental health services

Commissioning Intentions

• Shift money and care for people with mild to moderate depression and anxiety to primary care mental health services to enable improved access, best practice and increased capacity in local services

• Increase support to people with physical health problems who have emotional needs such as depression and anxiety

• Improve waiting times and referral pathway so people access the right services first time

• Improve the care and pathway for people in mental health crisis by increasing intensive home treatment to enable them to remain in their homes and continue with their lives

Commissioning Intentions

• Review services for older people with mental health problems to improve the support and efficiency of the pathway

• Increase capacity within the memory assessment service• Increase diagnosis rates & improve training and

pathways in primary care for dementia• Continue to personalise services through increase in

personal health budgets• Continue to work with services users, carers and other

partners to identify what needs to be delivered to meet needs within each MHPbR care pathway

Commissioning Intentions

• Improve the way we measure the effect of services on improving peoples recovery through a working group to develop ways to measure outcomes and experience reported by service users.

• Continue to co-commission with service users and carers through procurement projects

• Develop services in primary care that will support people to manage their mental health and recovery without admission to specialist services

• Continue to achieve efficiencies in the way we deliver mental health services to bring our mental health spend closer to the average
