The document outlines key success criteria and best practices for clinical commissioning groups under the new NHS framework. It discusses the need to design sustainable patient pathways through collaborative relationships. Commissioning groups will need to make intelligent use of data combined with GP experience to define "waste free" pathways and ensure compliance with guidelines. A multi-dimensional approach is recommended that involves needs assessment, evidence-based practice, service redesign, and choosing optimal treatment locations through modeling and trend analysis. Operational excellence is seen as integral to effectively implementing the new GP commissioning framework.

They are some key success criteria for
commissioners in the new framework
• Driving service design for sustainable patient outcomes
– A change from the PCT structures, where the focus is on performance targets and ‘tick box’ audits
– GPs will need to define pathways for their own patients, providing a tailored approach
– The defined pathways will need to create provisions in the most effective and efficient way possible
• Working with a variety of partners, building collaborative and robust relationships
– The GP consortium will require a smart organisational design that builds relationships to support decisions
– The consortium will then need to define ‘waste free’ pathways
– Ensuring compliance with national guidelines and CQC standards
• Making intelligent use of data in combination with GP tacit experience
– Balancing innovation, outcome requirements, process flow, patient needs and value
– Decision-making and performance management driven both by data and deep understanding of patient needs
best practice needs to overcome these hurdlesbest practice needs to overcome these hurdles

• Governance
– How to involve the right stakeholders, provide assurance and ensure the organisational structure is fit for purpose
• Accountabilities and Responsibilities
– Allocating roles and ownership
• Health Intelligence & Data Analytics
– What does the existing evidence tell us?
– What other information do we need?
• Service Review and New Pathway Design
– Designing the new end-to-end pathways; deciding where & how services are delivered
– Ensuring compliance with compliance requirements (CQC, National Commissioning Board etc)
• Evaluation, Redesign and Improvement
– Learning from the new commissioning models and improving them
– Building GP commissioning capability
Operational excellence is integral as part of the
overall framework for clinical commissioning
