General Practice of the Future
NHS Five Year Forward View
In 2015 a ‘new deal’ for general practice
Aim of enabling prevention and management of ill health closer to peoples’ homes
Increased investment in primary care
Tackling the problem of recruitment and retention of GPs
The Reality
• More facets of care are being pushed out of hospitals to general practice
• Failure to cope with the pressures facing it will affect us all
• Recent BMJ article warns “if general practice fails, the whole NHS fails”
• The importance of general practice to the NHS cannot be underestimated
General practice: what’s the problem?
• 2016• 18,400 patients• 6.4 FTE GPs• 2.5 FTE nurse practitioners• 80,000 GP appointments annually
• 2010• 10,200 patients• 5 FTE GPs• 1.5 FTE nurse practitioners• 42,500 GP appointments annually
• Workload and Demand Management
• Diagnostics and Earlier Triage • Self-Care
So what could help diagnostics?
Application Processwww.sbrihealthcare.co.uk
Application Process
Assessment Phase Timelines• Close competition, noon on 24th November• Review compliance (November)• Assessment packs assigned and issued to Technical Assessors (end
November)• Each application reviewed & scored by Technical Assessors
(December)• Assessment of long-list applications at panel meeting involving
clinical leads (January 2017)• Production of rank ordered list for interview (January)• Interview panels to select final winners (January / February)• Draft and issue contracts (February/March)• Publish contracts awarded (March)• Feedback to unsuccessful applicants (by March)
1. What will be the effect of this proposal on the challenge addressed? 2. What is the degree of technical challenge? How innovative is the project?3. Will the technology have a competitive advantage over existing/alternate technologies
that can meet the market needs? 4. Are the milestones and project plan appropriate? 5. Is the proposed development plan a sound approach?6. Does the proposed project have an appropriate commercialisation plan and does the
size of the market justify the investment? 7. Does the company appear to have the right skills and experience to deliver the
intended benefits? 8. Does the proposal look sensible financially? Is the overall budget realistic and justified
in terms of the aims and methods proposed?
Assessment Criteria
Key Points to Remember• Research and define the market/patient need • Review the direct competitor landscape and make sure you define your USP• Consider your route to market, what is the commercialisation plan? Do you know
who your customer will be, how will you distribute, how much will you charge for the product/service?
• How will the project be managed (what tools will you use, how will the team communicate etc)
• Provide a clear cost breakdown• Make sure you answer all of the questions in sufficient detail• Try not to use too much technical jargon, sell the project in terms the NHS will
understand (outcomes, benefits to patients etc)
