Better Care Fund 2021-22 Year-End Template Report of the Head of Joint Commissioning, NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board Additional documents: Minutes: Naomi Robinson, Senior Joint Commissioning Manager at the NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board (ICB), presented a report on the Nottingham City Better Care Fund (BCF) 2021/22 year-end template. The following points were discussed:
(a) The template reports that progress for each metric is on target, apart from the avoidable admissions where national data was unavailable to assess the progress. Looking at local data this metric is still on target;
(b) Challenges highlighted by the template include a slight increase in admissions relating to Covid 19 and other conditions that deteriorated during lock down, Covid related sickness absence impact ability to provide sufficient homecare provision and an increased use of interim beds and likely increase of people moving to permanent care as a result of the reduced homecare provision;
(c) The template helps commissioners to carefully consider how the schemes commissioned work together to provide care, it provides a framework that allows commissioners to assess how well the schemes are integrated and to think creatively about service provision;
(d) It can be challenging to see the benefit of prevention services when they are only given a relatively short period. Benefits of prevention work are more likely to be seen over the long term, and the services are not always in place long enough to show the benefits to the system as a whole;
(e) A longer term approach to commissioning is important and the City has been working for the last 15 years on services that are showing benefit, however with the significant cuts over the last decade it has been hard to maintain all of these services.
Resolved to approve the 2021-22 Better Care Fund Year-End Template.
· Reasons for the decision
The purpose of this report is to approve the BCF 2021-22 year-end reporting template for submission to NHS England & Improvement. The template confirms the status of continued compliance against the requirements of the BCF, including the final end of year spending position, and provides information about challenges, achievements and support needs in progressing delivery.
· Other options considered
To not submit the return: this option is rejected as this BCF reporting to NHS England & Improvement is a national requirement. |
