Can practice managers save the NHS (CHEC practice manager masterclass)Robert Varnam Coaching
Presentation to the CHEC annual practice managers' masterclass in Nottingham, 25 June 2015. Where does general practice fit in the future of the NHS? What are the challenges and opportunities practice face? How can practice managers accelerate progress by releasing GP capacity?
This was presentation given by Dr Hugo Minney from the APM Benefits Management Specific Interest Group (SIG). The SIG was established in May 2009 for the benefit of members, the APM and the profession in general and their vision is to: "develop and promote benefits management as a core driver of successful project, programme portfolio and change management".
The APM Scotland branch welcomed Dr Minney to the Blythswood hotel in Glasgow to make this presentation.
A large audience attended Hugo’s presentation entitled “Managing benefits from projects – the NHS way”. Hugo has extensive experience within the English NHS and his presentation included lessons which are applicable to the Scottish NHS.
Hugo has a particular focus on social return on investment (SROI) – identifying, measuring and maximising the economic, environmental and social success. He also has expertise in proposal and bid writing, and in identifying the "hard to measure" things so important for investment decisions such as the value of staff sickness, employee inspiration, customer retention. Hugo is currently company secretary of a GP-led federation with 170,000 registered patients.
The presentation explored the question “what is benefits management?” and where it fits into project management. Hugo used examples from NHS England to illustrate why projects failed and looked at how benefits management can drive successful projects. He then contrasted this with some success stories and examined the tools and approaches that made them work.

Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

7. It’s a big market (£170bill in 22/23), but not a quick market to access
• The NHS is a monopoly in Healthcare (but doesn’t think or act like one)
• 1000’s of organisations, not “One NHS”
• Highly regulated = risk averse (slow decisions)
• Pilots rather than purchase
• Paid for activity not outcomes
• Over managed and under led
• Staff don’t think like a patient or act like a tax payer
8. • The NHS uses products from over 80,000 suppliers (medical equipment, medicines,
food, business and office goods)
• Spending Approx. £70bill
• Generally, your company and product(s) have to be on a Procurement Framework or
Dynamic Purchasing System
• Or ride on the coat-tails of someone who is
• The NHS is not a “typical” purchaser – long decision making chains and lead times
• Getting on a procurement framework is not the end of the process – companies still
need to continue business development activity
• More on procurement in a later Excel workshop
9. Commissioners or Procurement Teams will ask:
• Is it on a procurement framework?
• Is it actually in the market or are they looking at a pilot to complete product development
• Is it TRULY ready?
• Has anyone else bought it already?
• And can I contact them?
• And what do they think of it?
• What is the evidence base like?
• Is there any real world evidence?
• Are there any Case Studies of use?
• Is there a business case for the product I can see?
• What else exists in this space and how does it compare?
• What “Horizon Scans” or “Innovation Insights” exist?
e.g. Transformation of services, Reset/Recovery
10. Commissioners or Procurement Teams
will ask:
• Is it supporting clinical decision making?
• Does it have AI?
• Is it for clinicians?
• Is it for patients?
• Does it access or share patient data?
• Does it have open API’s
• Is it modular?
• Does it fit into our existing platforms?
Digital Products
Answers to those questions:
• NICE (Digital) Evidence standards Framework
• Medical Device Regulations
• DCB0129 Compliance
• NHSx AI Lab
• ODS Code
• NHS Spine Compliancy
• GP IT Futures
• Developer.nhs.uk
• Digital Technology Assessment Criteria
• NHS Login
• PHR Toolkit
• etc
11. Sustainability – Is Carbon the new currency / basis for a value proposition?
12. Sustainability – Is Carbon the new currency / basis for a value proposition?
Commissioners or Procurement Teams will ask:
• How does this product deliver social value?
• Fighting Climate change
• Covid-19 Recovery
• Tackling Economic Inequality
• Equal Opportunity
• Wellbeing
• What is the impact of this product on my
organisations Carbon footprint?
13. Protect the most vulnerable from COVID-19
Help Restore NHS services inclusively
Develop digitally enabled care pathways in ways which
increase inclusion
Accelerate preventative programmes which proactively
engage those at risk of poor health outcomes
Particularly support those who suffer mental ill-health
Support Collaboration in planning and delivering action
Does your product:
14. How to “speak” to NHS purchasers, How to frame your value proposition.
Clarity Have a clear focus, know what your “ask” is
Understand
The Needs & Priorities of the NHS around your innovation.
Your product is a point solution that needs to fit into
complex pathways. Understanding collateral impact is key
Avoid the Hard sell
Understand and communicate what is in it for the NHS,
Patients, Citizens (populations)
Long Game
The NHS is a complex system of 1.5 million employees and
60 million clients
AHSNs can catalyse adoption by removing barriers
Co-create Engage and Partner rather than Tell or Sell
Value
Multi-dimensional – Social Value, Carbon Reduction,
Reducing inequality, increasing inclusion, Return on
Investment, Cost of Implementation, Cash Releasing
15. • The Pandemic changed behaviours of patients and NHS & Social
care staff due to necessity
• Covid created the “use case” for greater digital provision of care…
virtually overnight
• Digital and Remote is not for everyone - it can and has driven
health inequalities
• Carbon reduction will become as valuable as unit cost to NHS
organisations. Lots of opportunity for innovation, new product
development, redefining existing value propositions
16. • The NHS is a large but complex market for suppliers to
navigate
• There are new and expanding expectations of product
features, benefits and impacts that suppliers need to
understand
• Real World Validation / Real World Evidence can help avoid
pilots without purchase
• AHSNs are uniquely positioned and able to help you access
the NHS, Health and Care Market

• Helped create Apex from Edenbridge
which has recently sold to EMIS
• Sit on several clinical advisory groups
and provide consultancy services to IT
companies and health tech start-ups
21. A lot of what Mike told you is wrong!
• About primary care…
• 8000 GP practices – number getting smaller 30000 GPs
• Most are partnerships – other models exist – VIM gaining popularity
• Partnership model has issues.. Discourages investment – group
decision making – power of the veto – however no procurement rules
focused on costs and which pot
• Approx. 1250 PCNs – not official entities – MOUs between practices.
• Neither Practices nor PCNs have any procurement rules
• Some pots of money have stipulations…others don’t
22. Emerging C&M Architecture – April 22
PCNs - Neighbourhood (Care Communities) inc General
Practice
Providers
(Collaboratives)
Commissioners
(Collaboratives)
“Place Plus” – A wider Partnership, Planning & delivery across a wider
geographical area.
Place (Cheshire East) - Place Partnership, Leadership, Planning &
delivery with aligned Resources and Functions
Integrated Care Board (ICB)
(NHS)
Integrated Care Partnership (ICP)
(all other ICS partners)
Cheshire and Merseyside
Integrated Care System (ICS)
Health and
Wellbeing Board
23. Supporting Integration
Integrated Care Systems
establish statutory ICS in each ICS area made up of an ICS NHS Body and a separate ICS Health & Care Partnership (NHS, local
government and partners)
Duty to Collaborate
Place a duty to collaborate on NHS organisations (both ICSs and providers) and local authorities.
Triple Aim
A shared duty to have regard to the ‘Triple Aim’ of better health and wellbeing for everyone, better quality of health services
for all individuals, and sustainable use of NHS resources.
Joint committees
allow ICSs and NHS providers to create joint committees
Collaborative Commissioning
remove barriers and streamline and strengthen the governance for collaborative and aligned decisions
Joint Appointments
introduce a specific power to issue guidance on joint appointments between NHS Bodies; NHS Bodies and local authorities; and
NHS Bodies and Combined Authorities to support the development and delivery of integrated care
24. Primacy of Place
• What can be done at Place, should be done at Place where it makes sense and subject
to statutory and contractual limitations
• Focus on local need and local priorities (inequalities)
• Task and Finish Groups established to review CCG functions (Inc Primary Care)
• Commitment to ensure that local resource remains local
• Importance of relationships and corporate memory
• Place Plus – local concept that Cheshire East and West could work together
25. So what?
• No longer a traditional commissioner/provider split -> Collaborative
working?
• PBR is gone - Block contracts – less profit making more outcomes
• More questions about overall value for money
• More direct control from SecState
• Possible reduction in GP involvement – resurgence of hospitals?
• Classical mistakes of ACOs..
• Lots of new people in new roles
• Lots of bun fighting and lack of clarity on governance and decision making
• Lots of people wanting to make a mark and to be seen to be successful
• Perhaps an attraction to a new way of doing things
26. When is a PCN not a PCN?
When it’s a care community
27. Care Communities/neighbourhoods
• Are the sub units of place
• Have PCNs in them but include all health, social and third sector
services in them
• Teams are being aligned to this boundaries
• Are being encouraged to work collaboratively
• Are being asked to look at data and ID needs and create plans
• Ideally need new contractual mechanisms
28. Primary Care Networks
• Collection of practices in an area – in theory one area…
• Working together to deliver PCN contract
• Direction of Travel is area based contracts
• Peer Pressure to reduce variation
• Area based services?
• Some practices are merging – PCN as Practice is quite powerful
29. GP Practices
• Partnership model
• Income – Expenses = Profits
• Profits divided by partners in predetermined shares usually based on
sessions worked but some other factors.
• Most incomes are fixed – apart from some incentive schemes – QOF IIF etc
• Biggest Expense is staff – don’t have to follow AFC – so constant pressure
to be lean and mean… reluctance to take on new work esp that considered
to have little or no value – up side is can be ruthlessly efficient – My
Vaccine site has vaccinated >100K pts 80% of all vaccines in the end were
given by GPs..
30. Show me the Money
Tip think– Is it real money in a real bank account?
Inside a practice (some have rules)
• GMS
• QOF
• IIF
• Prescribing incentives scheme
• PPA income
• Vaccs and imms fees
• LES/DES/ES monies
• Fees to patients
• Other contracts
• Arroles money
Virtual – outside a practice
• Referrals budget
• Prescribing budget
• Diagnostics budget
• IT budget
• NHS infrastructure – Inc. community
services, Mental Health
31. GP Pressures
• Workforce crisis – less GPs
• Increasing population numbers
• Increasing elderly
• Increasing expectations
• Increasing capabilities of medicine – new drugs new treatments all
complicated and time consuming
• Poor state of the hospitals – waiting lists and over specialisation
• Press / government – are we being setup to fail?
32. System Pressures
• A&E activity
• Ambulance issues
• RTT targets – longest waiting lists ever
• Mental health explosion
• Bed blockers
• High Frequency attenders
• Health / Social overlap
33. What incentivises primary care?
• Profit
• Reduced workload – more services please
• Helping hit targets
• Good clinical care – but usually only if above not affected..
• Issues are PMs and practices are busy and often aren’t IT literate and
have no Project Mgmt capacity – too many people want practices to
trial stuff for ?what benefit (POCT example)
• Practices worry about IG/data security/wasting their time/clinical risk
from unproven etc…
34. What incentivises the system?
• Reducing health inequalities
• Anything that reduces admissions/readmissions/attendance esp. in
year
• Anything that has demonstratable efficiencies to the system – beware
the poorly thought out cost saving example - there is a mantra you
only save money when you shut a ward or operating theatre.
• Push for Risk Strat and Risk Segmentation – See UCL Partners work
35. Examples with my thoughts on
why some innovations succeed
and others don’t.
36. AccuRx
• Spotted a gap – 1-1 messaging from the
desktop
• Had enough funding to give it away free
and build a user base – so no purchasing
to begin with
• Deeply understood – EMIS API – and
desktop security (could be installed
without admin rights)
• Didn’t need practice manager
engagement -The IT literate could install it
by themselves and use it without needing
whole practice adoption
• Listened to users & rapidly added new
features
• Covid helped – photos and video
• Held NHS over a barrel – has generated
some bad feelings
• Some of their latest features aren’t
amazing…are they having to listen to
NHS…
• Appear to have slowed down a little
• Held up by the API and its abilities
37. Examples of Kit
Macroview Otoscopes
• Clear benefit to end users
• Simple capital purchase by end
users
• Ability for single clinicians to
purchase or group deals
• However expensive and marketing
not amazing in the UK – so some
use and love but some don’t know
about them
• Also Institutions often buy cheaper
Alivecor devices
• Clear use for end users
• Capital purchase - Simple 1 off price
• App not great and no one has thought
of how to integrate to clinical systems
• Not marketed well to NHS - However
some NHS body did find out about it
and as it ticked the AF screening box –
they bought loads – also may soon
have NICE tech appraisal guidance
38. EPS
• National Programme with tons of project management – delivered in
a centralised standardised way
• Clear benefits to clinicians and to patients and to practices though no
payments
• Software seemed to work well from day one..
• Lot of training supplied
• Managed to get practices and practice managers engaged in
delivering it
• Some updates/added functionality – but could do with a lot more
39. POCT
• It seems to be a great idea..
• Local labs feel threatened and complain about QI/price/undermining them
• Diagnostics budget is complex and central and not particularly under local
control to easily vary
• Mix of capital/revenue complicates things
• Not enough data on usage and costs
• Concern over accuracy
• Training requirements large
• Kit not that portable where some of use cases are at home etc..
40. Final Advice
• Be able to explain your product/service in a couple of sentences so
that people get it – and understand the benefits
• Understand who pays, who uses, how its installed/introduced, who
benefits
Editor's Notes
Our commissioners see this as a new platform to deliver existing commission
New workflow for supporting innovators
Greater transparency to the commissioners and innovator on what is happening
E.g. re homeless – digital inclusion for PR targeted in homeless hostels
