Additional details

The 6-month contract extension will allow the newly established NHS North West London CCG to continue the discussions for consistent commissioning and contracting on the following areas:
• Contractual framework for commissioning at NWL ICS level
• Finance and staffing resources aligned and consistent with greater demand for Health Inequalities - determine and agree how resources will be allocated
• Models of Care - agree consistent and standardised NWL ICS-wide delivery model to ensure effectiveness, efficiencies and excellent pt. experience across all levels of service delivery whilst meeting local Brent Borough population health & care needs
• Reporting - agree consistent reporting principles and processes taking into account NWL ICS and Brent ICP levels of good governance and robust assurance processes.
• Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Outcome Measures (OM) - review current KPIs and outcome measures to see if they are still fit for purpose and are capturing the right information needed for performance monitoring and reflective of the outcomes being measured impacting patient care.

In line with the NWL single CCG commissioning strategy the aim is to standardise the development of a number of emerging Integrated Care Partnerships (ICPs). The extension period will allow Brent Borough to agree a consistent and standardise Brent-wide delivery model to achieve effectiveness, efficiencies and excellence in pt. experience at all levels of service delivery.
