Our end goal is a truly integrated Care Organisation; the first step on this journey is to see an integrated community care model up and running as quickly as possible during 2019. The aim is to develop an integrated community care model for MSK which is focused on developing an integrated pathway wide approach and transitioning the system away from individual organisational models of delivery. Inherent within the service will be the ongoing commitment to integrate community teams, social care and the neighbourhood model so that they are tailored to the needs of local communities. To this end, the CCG has been working in partnership with its key provider stakeholders (the incumbent providers) to bring the three pathways across Acute, Community and Primary Care together into a truly integrated model which meets that vision and improves the quality of care for our patient population. Through these discussions West Essex CCG believes it has identified the providers most capable and uniquely placed of leading and participating in delivery of the Integrated MSK Service. Those key provider stakeholders are: Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Essex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, Stellar Healthcare Ltd and Uttlesford Health Ltd. It has been determined that this arrangement, with Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Foundation Trust being the lead contract holder on behalf of the Alliance partners, will achieve better patient outcomes for West Essex and will help to facilitate a more integrated, resilient healthcare system. Some of the key elements of the scope of the services includes: - A hub that is responsible for designing planned care for all MSK specialties and will be the interface between primary, community and secondary care to jointly plan MSK pathways with patients and the CCG; - Treating patients at the most appropriate location and undertake minor surgical interventions such as hand and carpal tunnel surgery (all appropriate surgical procedures will continue to be undertaken by PAH and are out of scope); - Provision of a clinically led MSK Clinical Coordination Centre to deliver improved access through a single point of referral and central booking system including triage Further detail can be provided on request.
