This commitment was included following the publishing of the CONCEPTT trial ([thelancet.com](https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(17)32400-5/fulltext)), which found that use of CGM throughout pregnancy could support women with type 1 diabetes to achieve better glycaemic control and reduce the risk of adverse neonatal outcomes associated with type 1 diabetes. NHS England wishes to notify CGM suppliers about its intention to commence early market engagement to better understand the current supplier base and market in CGMs, in order to develop a funding model and commissioning guidance to enable delivery of the LTP commitment. This commitment is being delivered as part of NHS England's Diabetes Programme which is a joint partnership between NHS England, Public Health England and Diabetes UK. At this stage, we are not anticipating a central procurement but rather looking to support consistent local adoption at pace and to that end, through a Request for Information (RFI) process and webinar, we are seeking further information to further shape our approach; and to develop a suite of guidance to support Local Health Economies (LHEs), including (but not limited to): a central funding model, associated criteria for LHEs to draw down funding, centrally-issued commissioning guidance (including signposting to CGM products where known). This webinar will be an opportunity for NHS England to summarise the approach and for Suppliers to clarify and ask questions to ultimately support NHS England to develop: - An understanding of the suppliers, services and devices available; - Criteria for LHEs to access central funding for local commissioning purposes (if this is the route we opt for); - Guidance around current capacity and capabilities of the market to meet demand; - An understanding of any existing innovative approaches to maximise uptake and use of CGM in T1 pregnancy. - Best practice guidance around local commissioning. The webinar is to be held on the afternoon of 27th November 2019 (exact time to be confirmed).
