Confidential Yes ☐ No Items are only confidential if it is in the public interest for them to be so
The Committee is asked to: Note the attached draft Primary Care Strategy for NW London
Strategic Objectives and Board Assurance Framework N/A
Summary of purpose and scope of report NW London has been asked by NHSE to prepare and submit a Primary Care Strategy. The attached draft has been prepared using existing local documentation, and with input from local stakeholders, in order to ensure submission by the initial deadline of 1 April.
The Strategy is now out for wider engagement and comment in the CCGs, including their Primary Care Commissioning Committees, and across NW London. We anticipate submitting a final version by end May, and would welcome the Committee’s views and comments on the attached draft.
What are the benefits of this project? Benefits for Practices:
• Greater resilience: by making the best use of shared staff, buildings and other resources, practices and the wider system can help to balance demand and capacity over time and thereby manage patient inquiries and requests as swiftly as possible
• Better work/life balance: with more tasks routed directly to appropriate

Item: 3
professionals, such as clinical pharmacists, social prescribers, and physiotherapists, patients can be offered a broader range of services, from the right professional, whose workload is manageable and who can therefore give undivided attention to their patient
• More satisfying work with each professional able to focus on what they do best • Improved care and treatment for patients by expanding access to specialist or
support services such as social care • Greater influence on the wider health system, leading to more informed decisions
about where resources are spent
Benefits for Patients: • More co-ordinated services where they do not have to repeat their story multiple
times
• Access to a wider range of professionals in the community, so they can get access to the people and services they need in a single appointment
• Appointments that work around their lives, with shorter waiting times and different ways to get treatment and advice including digital, telephone-based and face-to-face
• More influence when they want it, giving more say over how their health and care are planned and managed
• Personalisation with a focus on prevention and living healthily, recognising what matters to them and their individual strengths, needs and preferences
Benefits for the system • Co-operation across organisational boundaries and teams to allow better co-
ordination of services
• Wider range of services in a community setting, so patients do not need to be seen unnecessarily in the acute sector
• Developing a more population-focused approach to system-wide decision-making and resource allocation, drawing on primary care expertise as central partners
More resilient primary care, acting as the foundation of integrated systems
Patient, staff and stakeholder engagement Meetings scheduled with the Integrated Lay Partners Group. Additional CCG meetings.

Introduction
01
The Long Term Plan was released on 7 January 2019. Its goal is to support integration of care, and dissolve the divide
between primary care and community based health services. Primary care networks enable the provision of proactive,
accessible, coordinated and integrated care to improve outcomes for patients. Networks will be small enough still to
provide the person centred care valued by both patients and GPs, but large enough to have impact through deeper
collaboration between practices and others in the local health (community and primary care) and social care system.
In 2015, the ”Transforming Primary Care In London, Strategic Commissioning Framework”
(SCF) outlined the new patient offer centred around the three aspects of care that matter
most to patients: proactive care, accessible care and coordinated care. The ‘Next Steps to
the SCF’ (November 2018) evidences the role of collaborative working within Primary Care
and how the translation into Integrated Care Services will occur. It emphasises the
importance of strengthening collaborative working based on the five themes of 1)
Comprehensive population-based care, 2) Systems, information and quality improvement, 3)
Organisational capabilities, 4) Effective governance and stewardship and 5) Building and
leading collaborative system partnerships.
Purpose and overview of this document
This document builds on the CCGs Primary Care Strategies, the good
progress made in 18/19 and sets out NWL’s strategy for the development of
Primary Care from FY19/20 to FY23/24 in line with NHS England’s
requirement that this is detailed for every ICS. The document sets out:
• The alignment between the national and regional strategies for
Primary Care and NWL’s ambitions
• A vision and our aspirations for primary care across NWL
• The delivery model, and models of care that reflect the SCF
• A high-level roadmap to FY23/24
• The programme structures and governance to support this
• An overview of achievements made to date across the CCGs that
builds confidence in our ability to deliver
• A description of the strategic initiatives and enablers across NWL
that will ensure we get to where we aspire to be
North West London (NWL) has made significant progress during FY18/19 through each of its constituent CCGs’ Primary Care Strategies and ambitions to
deliver Primary Care at scale across the STP footprint. Since the publication of the NHS Long Term Plan, the NWL Health and Care Partnership has been
progressing plans to create a single Integrated Care System (ICS) across NWL, and has been supporting Primary Care across the CCG and borough
footprints to establish Primary Care Networks (PCNs) within the ICS.

NW London’s vision for Primary Care
Changing the way we work so that general practice teams build relationships with all other staff in their networks, and together create a partnership between professional s and people that empowers peoples ‘ control over their own health and delivers integrated whole person care to the key groups of people
Ensure each of our primary care networks has the tools they need to practice; modern estate, digital solutions, robust data, evidence based information easily to hand, and WSIC whole population profiles . Resources are targeted to support good and excellent practice and supports struggling practices and networks
Ensure our primary care networks work to a continuous quality improvement cycle that meets quality standards, gets rid of unwarranted variation, aims for all our practices to be good or outstanding for CQC, and standardises our care pathways to ensure consistent quality of, and improved access to services
Maximise the opportunity of general practice working to scale in collaboration with community and mental health providers to address the workforce and sustainability agendas, and to have excellent development opportunities available that allow full use of everyone's skills and abilities
Patient and Public Voice
General Practice is at the centre of how we deliver care, working with colleagues, patients and carers in Primary Care Networks, collaborating with partners, including our GP Federations, to support the delivery of an Integrated Care System and using technology that works for everyone. For NW London, if we are to achieve our ambition of whole person population-based care, we need a strong collective primary care voice - not just at the table when plans are made, but actively participating in leading this change.

The following slide shows our draft roadmap with the expected milestones to develop local Primary Care, in line with national ambitions.
Complete baseline maturity assessment Develop aligned funding plan Develop detailed plans by PCN
• Undertake a comprehensive PCN
Maturity Assessment to understand
existing strengths and development
requirements across NWL using
national template
• Use this base lining work to support
assessment and identification of areas
of greatest priority for investment
• Define deliverables across all HCP
Strategic Initiatives and enabling
programmes to ensure steady progress
for every area, with particular emphasis
on reducing unwarranted variation and
reducing inequalities, and improving
QOF
• Map the development of training hubs
across NWL
• Baseline assessment of HCP priorities
and PCN priorities are informed by
assessment of local landscape in each
PCN which will inform funding plan and
use of OD (GP at scale) money.
• This is to completed and mapped to
PCN Maturity Assessment work to
develop spending and implementation
plans through to 2023.
• Funding focus on building an
organisational, clinical and business
model in each PCN that supports
sustainability and resilience
• Detailed delivery plans to be developed
across each PCN, based on population
health information, WSIC dashboards
and GP data packs
• Finalise the roles and responsibilities of
the Clinical Director, and support
Networks in securing nominations and
necessary development (including OD)
• Practices to identify local PCN partners
and develop shared plans for service
delivery.
• Patient and public voice plan for each
PCN, including use of digital technology
that includes equitable and access to
care, and plans for social prescribing
and care navigation
• Workforce plan to be developed for
each PCN that links into training hubs

Snapshot of local progress
Example
NHS Brent CCG
• During 2018/19 the primary care networks were formalised across Brent, practices are aligned to 10 Primary Care Networks with 4 in Harness Locality, 4 in
Kingsbury and Willesden Locality and 2 in Kilburn Locality.
• PCNs have engaged with member practices and wider stakeholders and identified a series of clinical priority areas of focus and is currently developing
pathways and collaborative ways of working, with the aim to start delivering community services in the near future.
• The PCN leads meet with the CCG on a regular basis to further develop PCNs and are increasingly working collaboratively
• The Brent Integrated Care Partnership Board was set up in October 2018, to drive delivery of integrated care. There is a strong focus on the programme being
primary care led, all key stakeholders are represented on the Board with representation from primary and secondary care, Brent Local Authority, the Voluntary
Sector and patient representatives.
• A Brent ICP model of care has been developed to deliver proactive care to the rising risk population within the community at a PCN level in order to reduce
unnecessary admissions / A&E attendances. The PCNs will proactively manage these cohort of patients via an enhanced MDT using a population health
management tool. PCNs will work with community and voluntary teams to reduce unplanned care by proactively managing these patients within the community,
encouraging self-care and ensuring better outcomes for patients.
• An integrated models of care delivery group has been established to support implementation, agree new ways of working and to test how the model of care can
work in practice. There is a strong focus on population health management with a shift from activity and processes to improving quality and health outcomes
which aligns closely with the ambitions of the ICP. The delivery group has representation from all key stakeholders.
• The Harness PCNs will begin delivery of the proposed model of care in May 2019 with the K&W PCNs following in August and the Kilburn PCNs in November.
The enhanced MDT have met in shadow form to agree new ways of working in order to better to manage the identified cohort of patients.
• The MDT will continue to meet in shadow form until the end of April to refine the model and develop collaborative working and have agreed a launch date of 1
May 2019.
NHS Central London
CCG
• Lead providers for our at-scale contract have mapped staffing within their networks and have understanding of the level of resource in the system. Sharing
of staff across the network is increasing. They also have training records and competencies required. Next steps will be to model the future workforce.
requirements against demand and capacity audits and develop plans for the use of additional roles and maximising skill mixes within networks
• Working as part of networks using peer support has driven up the quality for diabetes patients
• Plans are well underway for the integrated community team pilot and will include those patients with rising risk of complexity in their health conditions. The
project group has developed the metrics and outcomes that will measure the success of the pilot and these have been built into the spec. An MoU between
providers is in development .
• Online consultations pilot is now fully underway. The service has been extremely popular amongst the student population with early indications of high
patient satisfaction with the service.
• Networks are working collaboratively with shared governance arrangements and committee/board meetings that consider both quality and performance.
There is also a provider board covering all networks and lead providers of the at-scale contract have used this forum to collaborate and deliver the
community cardiology service which will commence in May 2019
01 02 03 04 05 06
During 18/19, using the Next Steps Strategic Commissioning Framework, we have made good progress, working with our GP Federations and our developing networks, to put the building blocks in place towards delivery of our vision. This includes creating a wide population health algorithm to identify “rising risk” cohorts of patients, piloting network-based online consultations and contracting at scale with our Federations and networks. The following are examples of CCG progress against the Strategic Commissioning Framework:

V0.11 – 14 May 2019
Example
NHS Ealing CCG
• Practices signed an MoU with Ealing GP Federation giving the latter the mandate to act on their behalf
• Discussions around the contour and sizes of PCNs well underway and are highly likely to reconfigure existing networks in Ealing
• Different networks making progress at different rates – some are defining functions of the network where some are in the process of selecting the Clinical
Directors
• Ealing GP Fed providing the administrative support for the discussions
• CCG monitoring the progress and possible impact on patient care without interfering
• The provider of the platform for the preferred Online consultation module selected
• Digital Appraisal group membership being extended to include commissioners and become digital steering group
• Staff Bank provider selected and now moving to mobilisation

NHS Hammersmith and
Fulham CCG
• GP at Scale Development plans for each network submitted, reviewed and approved by the CCG and MOUs signed
• Networks all received GRASP COPD training to improve capability and identify needs for undiagnosed COPD to support population health management.
• Developing Network Collaboration and Culture
• Initiated a series of away days to develop shared values between practices and clarify the vision for the network. The away days act as a platform to
develop trust between the practices and support the formation of a shared identity across the network.
• Undertaken a SWOT analysis to further develop plans for network delivery.
• Started a process to review how to distribute payments for population health management contract to support individual practice improvements aligned to
network benefits and maximising inter-practice and developing reciprocal relationships.
• Supporting the development of staff to make better use of workforce resources and to foster distributive leadership .
• Funding three practice managers to undertake the NAPC Advance Diploma in Primary Care Management
• Developing practice teams through participation in the Going for Gold programme
• Developing an asset based approach in recognition of the high degree of social need within the network demography which is insufficiently served by a
medical model.
• Progress to date has focused on introducing a network level PPG and working with White City Community Enterprise on social prescribing.
• Scheduled biannual educational events based on network clinical priorities (Mental Health and Frailty) with specialist consultants attending as external
speakers
• Initial conversations started to identify requirements for a shared services function working across the network to ensure patients received the correct
treatments and medication at the right time. The shared function will also share best practice across the network.
• Identifying staff to receive training for care navigation and sign posting to support efficient workflow and improve the front of house experience for patients.
• The Network have recruited a data analyst to work with practices to help streamline processes and improve workload management through collaboration.
• Collectively the network will use the data to understand the opportunities related to collective assets and pooling resources
• The network are arranging network wide PPG meeting to explore Population Health Management educational sessions including discussion of Patient
Activation and linking with third sector organisations.
• The network have undertaken a training needs analysis and are organising sessions to provide staff with violence and aggression training and care
navigation.

V0.11 – 14 May 2019
Example
NHS Harrow CCG
• Harrow currently has adopted a phased and robust gateway approach in releasing investment within the ‘at scale’ development programme. It is therefore
advantageous to build on this approach to invest the additional support into Locality Development (via HHL CIC). To date, HHL CIC has made steady and
positive progress within the existing Gateway Delivery Process and have formed effective working relationships with the emerging 3 Localities.
• The CCG have agreed (from April 2019) to commission a range of enhanced services, which will be commissioned at a locality, rather than Practice, as set
out in our Primary Care Strategy, to ensure 100% population coverage. Both the budgets and activity will be set at a locality level from April 2019. Moreover,
the CCG is currently in the process of developing a business case to progress an out of hospital contract, which will look to commission a wider range of
enhanced services at locality level (from July 2019).
• It is essential to mobilise the Locality based providers within a timely manner and ensure readiness in preparation for April 2019, through an adequate
package of financial support and diagnostic assistance. The CCG thus proposed to utilise this investment to deliver its key strategic priority of ‘at scale’
working within Harrow via an additional gateway; focusing on acceleration, provider readiness and mobilisation to deliver a range of healthcare services
from 1st April 2019 and beyond.
• This approach was approved by the CCG’s PCCC in February 2019.
NHS Hillingdon CCG
• Established 8 live neighbourhoods
• 6 Neighbourhood Co-production Events – between November and March which had representation from practices, CNWL community & MH, THH acute and

• Focus – our seven inter-connecting programme areas for the Health & Care
Partnership
• Evidence – collecting and monitoring the data for our outcomes and quality
standards
• Local Delivery – Primary Care Networks, supported by a Clinical Director
with a focus on quality, able to access integrated teams of community and
mental health support, taking a population health approach and informed by
the borough’s Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA)
• Social, community and voluntary support – integrated teams of
professional (and voluntary) support for children and families, people with
disabilities, frail older people, and their carers
• Urgent & Emergency Care – a fast and responsive service by NHS 111,
999 and London Ambulance Service, and backed up by face to face
treatment or advice by the right professional
• Specialist Care – Clinical Networks, serving local populations of 500,000 to
1 million
• Buildings and Equipment – investing in the capital support that
professionals need, so that users of all services can be seen in the right
place, by the best specialists, with the right resources and training
• Recruitment, Retention, Training and Research – attracting the best
professionals to work in NW London, and offering them a rewarding and
inspiring place to develop their careers
• Sustainability – through sharing resources across boundaries, the
organisations in our Partnership can plan development of care on solid
foundations, rather than the stop-go basis of recent years. Taking as our
resource the single financial envelope across our NW London Partnership,
and working differently across our boundaries, we aim to deliver the best
outcomes we can within the resources we have at our command.

Quality Dashboard
A Primary Care Quality Dashboard was approved by all CCG primary care
committees by March 2019. The dashboard summarises key information that is
either available in the public domain or available from NHS England returns from
primary care and is intended to give an overview of GP primary care quality through
the available information which acts as a benchmarking tool.
It is intended that the information will enable the primary care committees to focus on
and prioritise key concerns to support quality improvements in general practice.
It is recognised that there is some overlap between the criteria used for the quality
dashboard and performance assurance therefore the quality and primary care teams
will work together to prevent duplication and minimise repetition.
Quality leads already participate in and lead assurance monitoring visits to GP
practices however this tool will enable prioritisation of support and proactive
scheduling of practice visits.
Patient Safety
December 2018 ‘Reporting and Management of Incidents and Serious Incidents in
Primary Medical Services - A Working Guide for CCGs’ published by NHSE. This
has been circulated to CCG Governing Bodies for noting and will be followed up with
bespoke local guidance and support to individual practices as required.
CQC inspection
To continue to work with and support quality improvement in primary care to align
with NWL strategic quality objective to move all providers from current CQC ratings

Our Primary Care Workforce Plans builds on a well established NW London Primary Care Workforce Strategy. The plans aim to set a consistent
approach to primary care workforce transformation over the next five years; acknowledging and building on existing work and investment, local
recruitment and retention challenges for GPs and general practice nurses, and opportunities such as the Primary Care Network (PCN) Contract. PCNs
provide greater opportunities for portfolio roles, career development and expansion of the skill-mix in primary care. Delivering such change at scale
and pace requires strong leadership and wide scale culture change in the way primary care organisations are led, managed, and how staff are
rewarded. Our plans are central to achieving the ambitions of the NHS Long-Term Plan to support the development of an expanded primary care
workforce and multidisciplinary teams.
Recruitment & retention remains one of our biggest challenges despite the significant programmes of work delivered so far, with both GP and general
practice nurse numbers continuing to fall. This is compounded by high vacancy rates in other areas of the sector and a high local retirement
demographic amongst both groups.
We recognise the scale of this challenge and are committed to reversing the decline by enabling NW London to become one of the best places in
England to develop a career in primary care. To do this, we need robust and ambitious workforce plans, which;
Improve the profile of primary care in NW London
Significantly improve recruitment of trainees into primary care on qualifying
Create flexible, portable and attractive career opportunities, including portfolio careers
Promote standardised T&Cs
Invest in the wider primary care workforce
Upscale successful initiatives to maximise impact
Drive forward the development of PCNs and Community & Primary Care Training Hubs
Our plans capture the programmes scheduled for 2019/20 and aspirations for 2020-24. Plans for year two - five will be further developed in
collaboration with stakeholders to ensure they are comprehensive, robust and meet the aspirations laid out in the strategy.
Our plans are based on the following themes, all of which are underpinned by the need for systems leadership and sharing best practice;
