The national PBC Improvement Team has now concluded a series of visits to each SHA area. The purpose of the visits was to offer focused support and advice on local PBC implementation to SHAs, PCTs and practice-based commissioners.
To enable sharing of leading edge activity across the country, information arising from the visits will be provided very soon via the PBC Connection. This information will include key features for implementing PBC successfully, examples of good practice and innovative solutions collected during the visits. The PBC Connection is an online forum for clinicians and PCT and SHA managers to share ideas and good practice and exchange news and views. You can access PBC Connection here!
As part of efforts to raise the profile of PBC and encourage greater engagement, a PBC resource pack for GPs, containing information, tips and ideas on how to begin or enhance practice-based commissioning activities is being produced.
Hard copies will mailed to all GP practices week beginning 15 June or you will find it on the DH website.
A PBC clinical network of leading edge practice-based commissioners is being established. The aim is for recognised clinical leaders to help spread the word about PBC in every locality, mobilising local clinical communities and raising sights as to what PBC can help achieve. Dr James Kingsland has agreed to be the PBC clinical network lead. He will help co-ordinate clinical input into PBC.
