Andy flies solo to dive into what is arguably the most critical and headline-grabbing issue in general practice right now. Following the imposed contract in April, collective action is already underway—but the conversation has rapidly shifted. We are now seeing serious high-level discussions, BMA ballots, and even parliamentary motions exploring a "Plan B": a move toward a means-tested, subscription-based private GP model reminiscent of NHS dentistry.

Andy breaks down how we got here, the shifting appetite for private work among GPs, and what this means for the future of the profession and patient access.

ā±ļø Timeline & Episode Markers

  • 00:00 – Welcome & Intro: Andy solo update.
  • 01:15 – The Backstory: The imposed April contract and why the profession rejected it.
  • 03:00 – Collective Action So Far: Data Sharing Agreements (DSAs) and medicine optimisation software.
  • 04:45 – The Rise of "Plan B": The LMC Conference vote and the GPDF funding resolutions.
  • 07:20 – The Upcoming BMA Plan B Ballot: What a "subscription-based" GP service could look like.
  • 09:40 – Parliamentary Traction: The Early Day Motion (EDM) and the DHSC's response.
  • 11:15 – Data Check: Just how many GPs are looking to scale up private work? (The Wesleyan Poll).
  • 13:30 – Andy’s Reflections: How the BMA using private care as a bargaining chip marks a massive generational shift.

šŸ”— Resources & Links Mentioned

  • Pulse Article: UK GP leaders vote to explore dentist model outside the NHS
  • Pulse Article: Proposal to cut BMA GP committee funding voted down
  • Pulse Article: General practice 'Plan B' ballot will be open to all GPs
  • UK Parliament: Early Day Motion 66054: General Practice Funding and Model

What were some of the questions in the room and what did we learn about contract timelines, content and the future of collective action for General Practice?

We also discuss news stories covering some sudden and disruptive changes to GP Trainee assessment software, the shortage of yet another common drug (Aspirin!), and additional funding for cancer screening in areas of high deprivation.

GP surgeries are being asked to display posters promoting Jess’s Rule. Developed together with the profession, this rule asks GP teams pause, reflect, review and rethink the assessment and management of patients if they have been seen three times with the same or escalating symptoms.

In this episode we discuss Jess’s rule and how it might be received and implemented in practices.

Calls to end GP-issued fit notes after 40,000 per day issued in 2025
https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/cli...

Some 40,000 people were signed off with fit notes each working day last year
Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) estimated 11 million fit notes were issued in 2025 – the majority by GPs.
The CSJ recommended fit note responsibility be moved away from ā€˜overstretched’ GPs and into a new Work and Health Service and ā€˜embed employment and occupational health support at the point of sign-off’.
See box
They also said the total includes fit notes signed off as ā€˜may be fit for work’ as well as ā€˜not fit for work’.
This is despite the Government introducing legislation in 2022 which expanded fit note certification to other professionals such as nurses, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists. Last year, Government-commissioned research found limited take up of healthcare professionals other than GPs writing fit notes since the 2022 reforms.

Thoughts
Difficult to treat, maintain relationship, trust whilst enforcing a need to return to work?
Move to online consultations removing direct engagement with patients and losing opportunities to support back to work - something thats good for patients
Talk of removing this responsibility from GP s for some time
Used to be that 3-6m sickness DWP service assessed - this was removed at some point. Sounds like bringing that back
Behaviour of job centre
Also financial and societal/social pressure to return - presenteeism

Doctors demand new GP contract and £40-per-patient funding uplift
https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/contract/doctors-demand-new-gp-contract-and-40-per-patient-funding-uplift/

Doctors’ Association UK (DAUK) has demanded that the Government increase core GP funding per patient by Ā£40 a year as part of a new ā€˜patient-centred’ GP contract.

The group’s ā€˜Your GP, here for you’ campaign proposes funding these changes by increasing per-patient funding by Ā£40 a year to Ā£209 – a move it says would bring the figure in line with inflation over the last decade.

Within months of entering government, we invested an additional £82 million into the ARRS scheme and removed red tape to allow you to recruit over 2,500 extra GPs. I am now actively looking at ways I can introduce further flexibilities into the scheme to continue boosting GP employment.
To ensure general practice is rewarded for the additional work you take on through advice and guidance, we have introduced a financial

Smarter, autonomous GP triage with Rapid Health, find out more at https://rapidhealth.ai

Traditional online consultation systems, even AI-enhanced ones, still require staff to review and respond to patient requests. Smart Triage offers a new and distinct capability - autonomously assessing, navigating, and responding to patients online, eliminating the need for clinical or administrative staff input.

Smart Triage revolutionises the process, even allowing patients to instantly book clinically appropriate (right clinician) and clinically prioritised (right time) appointments, immediately after their online assessment, without delay. This means less patient waiting and delays to care, and more time for care navigators and clinicians to focus on what really matters - delivering great care.

Do the ARRS roles like PA's pharmacists, paramedics, physios and other roles work in General Practice or not?

Andy and Gandhi of eGPlearning explore this question in this update episode with content on:

ICBs paying for management consultations on General Practice
NHS England's changes to QoF codes
and more.....

https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/pra... recruitment crisis to employment crisis
GPs unable to find work
ARRS roles blamed?
But also chronic squeeze on finances and increase in training places means the money isn’t there to employ additional GPs after they are trained?

https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/pra...
A social media post from England GP Committee chair Dr Katie Bramall-Stainer said ā€˜preliminary results’ from the practice finance survey showed it ā€˜dropped by an average of over 20% over one year’.

Gandhi & Andy discuss the pros and cons of private healthcare in the UK with a particular focus on General Practice.

Several recent eGPlearning videos have led to discussion about the role of private healthcare providers in UK General Practice. In the last few weeks, we have covered the BMA’s guidance for GP Surgeries coping with demand and work from private healthcare providers, and also the exit of large private providers of GP services from th UK market in the form of Operose and Babylon Health.

In this video we go deeper and discuss our opinions on the role private providers can, do and should play in UK Primary Care…

The current abundance of click bait headlines about the ā€œbestā€ and ā€œworstā€ GP Practices can only mean one thing… Its annual GP Survey results time!

08:48 GP Survey results 2023
10:18 PCN Dashboard
13:20 Survey Analysis Tool walkthrough & national trends

Understanding the GP survey:

https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/statistical-work-areas/gp-patient-survey/

GP Survey FAQs:

https://gp-patient.co.uk/FAQ

  • Conducted independently by IPSOS
  • Purpose of the survey?
  • ā€œWe run the GP Patient Survey every year to track change over time and monitor the quality of services. The survey will help the NHS to improve GP practices and other local NHS services, so they better meet your needs.ā€

Where to find detailed information about methodology? Delving into the Technical Annexe:

  • Weighted data…
  • Confidence intervals? P43 - Are broad and can overlap for results with low numbers of responses such as specific questions at practice level data.
  • https://gp-patient.co.uk/Downloads/2023/GPPS_2023_Technical_Annex_PUBLIC.pdf

  • PCN Dashboard

https://gp-patient.co.uk/pcn-dashboard

Using the analysis tool

  • Comparative results and results over time - example looking at national data
  • Comparing with neighbours or other practices

Positives

  • Low sample size means only indicative at practice level and difficult to compare one practice to another
  • Unfair to compare some practices with others... Comparing apples to oranges.
  • Practices in difficult areas, where it is harder to recruit for example and where here are generally lower levels of life satisfaction, shouldn't be compared to more affluent areas with less challenges and practices who report higher levels of general well being.... I've often though there should be a set of control questions about general life satisfaction to help control for these sorts of differences.

Join Andy and Gandhi as they review the long-awaited NHS Workforce plan which sets out the NHS plans for the next 15 years. Is it any good? Find out with us....

https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content...

Published 29 June 2023
Commissioned and accepted by the government
Costed plan
Addresses how NHS will meet workforce challenges, 15 years, £2.4bn

The problem is significant
Staffing shortfalls have been a long-standing issue and NHS vacancies now stand at 112,000
The plan’s modelling estimates that vacancies would rise to 360,000 by 2037 if no action is taken

Priority areas:
Train - increase numbers of staff
Retain - 130,000
Reform - Work differently and modernise

Headline features
doubling medical school training places to 15,000 by 2031/32, with more places in areas with the greatest shortages
increasing the number of GP training places by 50 per cent to 6,000 by 2031
almost doubling the number of adult nurse training places by 2031, with 24,000 more nurse and midwife training places a year by 2031
providing 22 per cent of training for clinical staff through apprenticeship routes by 2031/32
introducing medical degree apprenticeships with pilots running in 2024/25 so that by 2031/32 2,000 medical students will train by this route
training more NHS staff domestically – in 15 years’ time, we would expect around 9-10.5 per cent of the workforce to be recruited from overseas compared to nearly a quarter now
ensuring that more than 6,300 clinicians start advanced practice pathways each year by 2031/32
increasing training places for nursing associates (NAs) to 10,500 by 2031/32 – by 2036/37, there will be over 64,000 nursing associates working in the NHS, compared to 4,600 today.

Thoughts and Comments

There are no ā€˜specific costs’ associated with retention elements of the long-term workforce plan, NHS England’s chief executive has admitted. Ms Pritchard
https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/pul...

The document sets out a plan to ā€˜ensure up to 130,000 fewer staff leave the NHS over the next 15 years’, however that segment of the 135-page report does not specifically mention GPs. Does mention consultants.

Every report, guidance and initiative directed at UK General Practice is advocating for increased use of technology and a digital first approach to accessing NHS care.

These same documents also compel all levels of the system to address inequalities in health care access and outcomes.

Many worry that the drive adopt technology and move access online may exclude vulnerable and disadvantaged groups who are often less able to afford, access and know how to use technology.

Can this situation be reconciled?

Can digital technology actually be used to address health inequalities?

In the episode we discuss this challenge and draw in particular on recent digital inclusion and inequality reports:

A recent report from the patient advocacy organisation HealthWatch, recommended that GP Surgeries should prescribe medicines available over the counter at pharmacies and supermarkets to patients based on socioeconomic need.

For years the NHS has been telling practices to stop doing this due to the cost of providing a whole appointment compared to the low cost (often pennies) of widely available medicines such as paracetamol and antihistamines.

We pick apart this report and it’s other recommendations here…

20230225 News and Updates

https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/breaking-news/junior-doctors-to-strike-after-98-vote-in-favour/

The vote saw a record turnout of 77%, with 98% voting in favour of strikes. Junior doctors will now walk out for 72 hours during March.

ā€˜We have had a real-terms pay cut of more than 26 % since 2008.
ā€œin the name of our profession, our patients, and our NHS, doctors won’t take it anymore.ā€

https://www.bma.org.uk/pay-and-contracts/pay/junior-doctors-pay-scales/pay-scales-for-junior-doctors-in-england

Junior doctors covers up to registrars!

Health secretary Steve Barclay said: ā€˜We hugely value the work of junior doctors and it is deeply disappointing some union members have voted for strike action.

https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/breaking-news/three-day-junior-doctor-strike-confirmed-for-march/

The BMA has announced a three-day junior doctor strike on 13, 14 and 15 March based on the health secretary’s failure to ā€˜come to the table’ to negotiate pay.

https://www.rcn.org.uk/news-and-events/news/uk-rcn-nursing-strikes-paused-during-talks-with-uk-government-210223

ā€œThe Health Secretary will meet with the Royal College of Nursing on Wednesday (22 February) to begin talks. The Royal College of Nursing will pause strike action during these talks.ā€

GP locum rates up

Annual survey conducted by GP business

https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/views/guest-opinion/could-a-chatbot-save-general-practice/

So good

So much sense in the simple plan to save general practice

Firstly, they increased funding to general practice, allowing more GPs to be hired and giving them the resources they needed to provide better care to their patients. They also invested in technology, such as telemedicine and electronic health records, to make it easier for GPs to communicate with each other and provide more coordinated care.

Next, they implemented measures to reduce the administrative burden on GPs, allowing them to spend more time with their patients. This included hiring more administrative staff to handle paperwork and streamlining processes to reduce bureaucracy.

They also implemented measures to support the mental health and wellbeing of GPs, recognising that they were under immense pressure and needed support. This included counselling services and peer support networks.

What to make of this
Represents the collective view of the internet?
AI informed health policy? Would it be better? Avoiding mistakes?
Providing summaries and search - research - ideas

oin Andy and Gandhi for the latest in General Practice and what is going on....

00:00 General Practice update Jan 2023

01:07 Charging for GP Appointments!

Sajid Javid’s call to charge for GP and A&E visits is ā€˜zombie idea’ threatening ā€˜principle of NHS’, say medics
https://inews.co.uk/news/health/sajid...

Former Health Secretary
Means tested fees protecting those on low incomes
Mr Javid, who will not stand at the next election, argued that ā€œthe 75-year-old model of the NHS is unsustainableā€ and pointed to Ireland’s ā€œnominal 75 euro feeā€ for going to an injury unit without a referral and Ā£20 fees for GP appointments in Norway and Sweden as possible models.

Thoughts
Not about the money but demand management
Delay presentations? More cost further down the road
Worsen health outcomes for the poorest

People already pay via NI/tax
Slippery slope
Expensive and fiddly to implement
Just invest in the NHS

During his campaign for the Tory leadership, Rishi Sunak set out plans to fine patients who miss GP and hospital appointments £10.
Wes streeting and labour against…

Welsh GP leaders propose new Australia-style GP contract
https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/wal...

12:25 Should General Practice go Australian?
The Welsh LMC conference will vote on a motion proposing that Wales moves to an item-of-service fee GP contract similar to that used in Australia.
One motion says that the ā€˜conference despairs at the thought of continuing to flog the dead horse that is our capitation-based GMS contract, and we rejuvenate our call for GPC Wales to negotiate an activity-based model’.
ā€˜conference urges GPC Wales to negotiate an IOS fee-based unified GMS contract similar to that in place in Australia’.

Can RapidHealh help you balance the supply and demand equation? See Timestamps for more or https://www.Rapidhealth.ai

NHS primary care is struggling to manage ever-increasing patient demand.

Practices and networks are looking to utilise their existing resources more effectively.

Rapid Health's intelligent software supports primary care networks with:

• Better utilising their current workforce mix
• Enabling a multi-disciplinary team (MDT)
• Reducing pressure on their practice staff, with patient self-booking
• Prioritising patients in real-time – right care, right practitioner, first time
• Improving patient access and continuity of care

During the livestream, Rapid Health will show how their intelligent software enables practices, PCNs and Federations and ICSs to manage patient demand and optimise workforce capacity. This session will include a demo of their next-generation Smart Triage product.

We walk through the summary of this report published on 20/10/22 by the House of Commons Health Select Committee on the future of general practice.

This provides a very different perspective from recent government messaging and is much more realistic about the challenges facing general practice and how they can be solved.

Jeremy Hunt is now (currently) the Chancellor of the Exchequer, so will this more realistic lin become government policy?

Gov. talking of post COVID financial restraint
General NHS pay increase of 2%
Inflation 5.5%???

Real-terms GP income far below level a decade ago and set for further drop
Evidence from the DHSC to the Doctors and Dentists Review Body (DDRB), which advises the government on pay, shows that average GP partner income in 2019/20 was £121,800 - down 15% in real terms compared with 2006/7.
Salaried GP pay at £63,600 in 2019/20 is down 8.5% in real terms over the same period, figures quoted in the DHSC evidence show
The call for pay rises for salaried GPs and other practice staff to be limited to 2% comes despite the government backing a 3% rise last year that exceeded the level awarded through the five-year deal, leaving practices with huge unfunded rises in staff costs.

Join Andy and Gandhi for the latest primary care update and how you can make 2022 more sane and productive.

Welcome to 2022
The new year

Intro

Discussing ways, tips, habits, routines for success in 2022

Review last year and life

Set priorities - life areas

Set goals - spread them for balance (life/work examples)

Break them up into achievable steps - spread throughout the year - monthly, quarterly? Add big events like Appraisal

Composite goals - timed 10k runs - composite target

Focus on the process, not goals? Be the person who is fit healthy, runs, and eats well, rather than just aim to get to a weight target - then what?

Habits - One of my favorite books in 2021 was Atomic Habits -
30 days to make a habit,
how to make a good or bad habit stick - obvious, attractive, easy, satisfying (and breaking a habit - opposite),
goals for direction, systems for achievement,
just turn up at first
Never skip 2x in a row
You are not a frog, making helpful habits stick: 30 days to make a habit https://youarenotafrog.com/episode-101/
Tiny habits big changes: https://www.buzzsprout.com/326936/142...

Routines

Principles…
Parkinson’s law (task expands to fill time)
Parreto principal (80/20)
Pomodoro (bursts with breaks)
Incremental gains - sky cycling / compounding habits
Eisenhower matrix - important/urgency
3 Frogs
2 min principal

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the land
all the practices were open, even at GP at Hand

The vaccines were put away by the nurses with care
In the hopes that they wouldn't soon be needed next year.

The children all nestled all snug in their beds,
while visions of TickTok danced in their heads.

Mom with washed hands and dad's coated in gel
as everyone settled in for the upcoming Christmas by Teams hell

When my phone on the placemat started buzzing, with such a jitter
It must be something breaking on that there Twitter
Away to the desk, I flew in a flash
grabbing the phone to check on the latest doctor bash

Omicron spread across the land like wildfire
Despite vaccination efforts everywhere including the Shire

Christmas parties canceled until we don't know when
Hold, on is that party music I hear from Number 10?

The news of ambulance queues filled my timeline
Hospitals overflowing following the latest NHS redesign
Our hospitals buckle, their staff must be tired and battered
I think of the district nurses and pharmacy teams just as shattered
When what to my wandering eyes should foresee
The latest comments about the 'lazy' GP

As a lone working doc, still at the practice this night
trying to clear the work and get it all right.
Using every system around to answer the demand question
Hear their names, who gets a mention?

On accurx or eConsult,
or is it engage consult
Do I use EMIS with Mjog, but I want X-on,
still loads of Docman, but not on Systmone.
Praise for Ardens, Eva, and primary care IT,
do I need to think about Klinik or AskmyGP?
Patients know best when Doctors care anywhere
Livi is around even with Push Doctor everywhere

Whichever system I use I am still here so late
Wondering how did healthcare get to this state?

With failed promises of 6000 additional GPs
An under-funded system and safety regulations such as CQC
It is no wonder General Practice is under such pressure
If this carries on, il be going out on a stretcher

I leave a message for another patient, grr another missed call
As the media replies demanding face to face appointments, face to face for all!'

Then the health secretary comes on to the news
demanding patients should see the GP how they may choose
The BMA and RCGP speak up and shout
with some GPs wondering if they have any Klout

I ponder the question about the PCN DES
wondering if I can believe anything NHS England says

That the workforce will help and change primary care
Well, for some they have been doing more than their fair share.

With various roles of health and wellbeing coaches, physician associates, and pharmacists,
Social link workers, paramedics, and physiotherapists

A few more roles add extra support
but it seems like our workforce will always be short.
We need m

Dr Farah Jameel – First Female GPC Chair

Background: https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/breaking-news/dr-farah-jameel-elected-as-first-female-bma-gpc-chair

She became the youngest negotiator on the BMA GP Committee’s England executive team when she was appointed in 2017 at the age of 34 and was one of the four executive team members of the GPC who negotiated the landmark five-year contract.

She has been leading on workload issues for the GPC, including changes to the NHS standard contract to prevent secondary care from dumping workload on general practice.

As a member of the executive team, she supported work on IT, leading on the BMA’s successful campaign to delay the controversial ā€˜General Practice Data for Planning and Research’ scheme, labelled a ā€˜data grab’ by campaigners.

Dr Jameel has also supported the GPC’s clinical and prescribing policy group, where she turned her attention to issues such as how referral management systems are rejecting GP referrals

What does it mean when GPs strike!!!!

Disclaimer and COI - PCn CDs

Just here to present our thoughts, not tell you to strike or not

Our opinions

Your opinions? Comment

Stress Warning - All of this is bad our mental healths - look after yourself

The motion on striking

That this committee is outraged by the deliberate, relentless denigration of GPs by Government, NHSEI and certain quarters of the media, and: (100% Agree)

i. rejects the plan published by NHSEI on 14th October 2021 and calls on all LMCs (local medical committees) in England to disengage from any participation with the implementation of that plan

ii. calls on all practices in England to pause all ARRS recruitment and to disengage from the demands of the PCN DES

iii. promises its full support to protect and defend any constituent GPs who refuse to engage or comply with the unreasonable contractual impositions by NHSEI of ā€œPay Transparencyā€ and ā€œCovid Medical Exemption Certificationā€

iv. calls on all practices in England to submit undated resignations from the PCN DES to be held by their LMCs, only to be issued on the condition that submissions by a critical mass of more than 50% of eligible practices is received

v. instructs the GPC Executive to negotiate a comprehensive new contract to replace the outdated, underfunded, unlimited, unsafe workload of the current GP contract

The response

https://www.bma.org.uk/bma-media-centre/bma-s-england-gp-committee-rejects-government-s-rescue-package-and-moves-towards-a-ballot-on-industrial-action

How we got here / Background…

  • General media headlines
  • Changing pattern of access
  • PCN DES and IIF requirements tightened
  • Stretched GP services and teams
  • Letter BW999 and package to improve access - VIDEO LINK

    • Our review: https://youtu.be/Rk3s0wQANBM
  • Poor reception amongst GP community (to say the least)
  • GPC motion… SLIDE

Why can’t I see my GP?

The public and media often ask the question why cant i see my GP?

In 2020 like most of healthcare, general practice changed.

Covid and the organisations that commission healthcare pushed General Practice to work in a digital means first to reduce exposure. Now many feel that as a result, they can not see their GP or practice team which is not true.

At the time of this episode, it is worth knowing most practices are offering more appointments and contacts than pre-covid with demand outstripping the capacity in part because of years of underfunding and a limited workforce. In addition media stories that only highlight the difficulties and do not share the millions of patient contacts that happen in General Practice each month may give a biased opinion.

Practices have changed the way they assess and see patients to protect the most clinically vulnerable patients and this is unlikely to change due to growing demand.

Even before COVID increasing numbers of practices offered a telephone or online first system to make sure patients saw the right person for the right reason. Since COVId most practices now offer a telephone or online first system. This allowed the team to assess patients remotely and consider an effective way to assess patients. Ie prevent a patient from taking a day off work just to to talk about their medications or assess a patient face to face with abdominal

This video explains what you need to know about prescription costs, who is eligible for free prescriptions and if you are not and struggle to afford them, then I will share with you how to make it more affordable

Check you eligibility here: https://services.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/check-...

01:05 Get free prescriptions

These are split into two groups - those needing an exemption form or not.

So if you are
Age under 16 or over 60
16-18 in full-time education
An inpatient in an NHS hospital

You will get prescriptions for free and you should not need any other forms

01:42 Exemptions for prescription charges

If you of your partner receive or you're under the age of 20 and the dependant of someone receiving:
āœ… Income Support
āœ… income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
āœ… income-related Employment and Support Allowance
āœ… Pension Credit Guarantee Credit
āœ… Universal Credit and meet the criteria
āœ… Tax credits
Then you may have free prescriptions but may need to show your certificates for the above to claim them

Other reasons that need you to complete an exemption form are:
are pregnant or have had a baby in the previous 12 months and have a valid maternity exemption certificate (MatEx) normally completed at your booking in apt
hold a valid war pension exemption certificate and the prescription is for your accepted disability

There is a shortage of blood bottles in the NHS. Here is why.

There is a shortage of blood bottles across the entire at the UK.

The company Becton Dickinson supply the blood bottles that we used to test patients' blood across the entire of the UK and in most places across the world. Unfortunately, due to increased testing because of Covid and because of the backlog of patient activity now there's a shortage of his blood bottles which is causing a strain on the NHS.

Why has this happened?

This is in part due to changes with resources, increasing demand, and problems with international distribution like the Suez canal incident and in the UK. It is made worse due to port changes, lorry driver shortages, and other aspects caused in part by Brexit.

As a result, NHS England has announced that there should be a reduction and rationing of the types of blood tests that are done across the entirety of the UK.

There was previous guidance issued on 10th August about checking stock, maximising the use of existing supplies, and looking at alternative supplies and options. Alternative supplies has been hampered by the worldwide use and distribution issues.

On 26th August NHS England has recommended a rationing of blood tests to survive this crisis. This relates to:
1. 5mls Yellow top – SST 2 – clotted sample (e.g. U&E, LFTs etc)
2. Purple top – EDTA (e.g. FBC, HbA1c)

This shortage is an immediate issue likely to continue till mid-September but may continue to occur in the next few months.

Changes include (taken from the document)

All primary care and community testing must be halted until 17 September 2021, except for clinically urgent testing.
Examples of clinically urgent testing include:
• Bloods that are required to facilitate a two-week wait cancer referral
• Bloods that are extremely overdue and/or essential for safe prescribing of medication or monitoring of conditions
• Bloods that if taken could avoid a hospital admission or prevent an onward referral
• Those with suspected sepsis or conditions with a risk of death or disability

In hospitals, each area is asked to make a 25% reduction in blood testing using add-on policies and local laboratory guidance. There will be monitoring on activity in the hospital especially UE and FBC testing.

Testing for routine things like wellness checks, vitamin D, fertility testing allergy testing* with some minor exceptions for these recommendations.

The guidance accepts this may cause harm.

There is an ask to support other local areas, and routes to do this if shortages are expected within 48 hours.

The guidance also states that regulators have been informed including CQC and NHS resolutions and that any complaints as a result of the shortages will be captured in the Clinical negligence scheme for GPs and trusts, respectively. This unfortunately is not the directive many practices would hope for

Join Andy and Gandhi for our Digital Primary Care update including discussing the dawn of a GP workload crisis, vaccination passports, PCN DES contract, and more....

Is there still a workload crisis?

Welcome

The last few weeks is it busy?

Andy / Gandhi

The theme in the industry media around workload

Year-end for Practices and PCNs, looking forward to 21-22

Changes to workload pressures QOF restart

We’re looking at some stories and tell you about content coming up in next few weeks...

GPs working average 11-hour day, major survey reveals

https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/wor...​

11 Hour WW notes

Results from Pulse workload survey - 1,400 GP respondents

Look at the infographic and discuss

11 hours working day and 37 patient a day (28 thought to be safe)

Longer consultation times

Survey also asked about the impact of the pandemic

See infographic and discuss

Are telephone and online consultations saving time?

More stressful, less information (body language etc.), risk of f2f in a pandemic to manage

What can we do?

Erm….. Difficult

Recognise the impact of technology - pandemic safety and patient convenience yes, helping doctors - no?

Restart some old discussions about funding models, presentation of availability by gov/nhs, managing demand, token charges……?????

BMA says GPs can refrain from non-essential work despite April restart orders

https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/wor...​

Notes

Ready to restart QOF activity in April, CQC resuming some inspection activity

But joint BMA.RCGP guidance - January -

But ongoing Vaccination clinics, maintaining social distancing… which says ā€˜most’ GP practices should pause all or a ā€˜significant proportion of their non-essential work, depending on local Covid rates – ā€˜remains relevant as we continue in the pandemic situation

Ongoing discussions about pausing QOF again???? - BMA spokesman

? non-story ish?

Workload impact of vaccine passports?

GPs should have no role in administering any vaccine passport scheme, RCGP warns

https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/cli...​

Notes

Government is likely to make some activities dependant on vaccination status - pubs, holidays abroads….

RCGP getting ahead of this and stating scheme should have zero impact on GP workload

Primary Care Workforce Bank by MLM FlexUnlock the potential of your flexible workforce with an interoperable primary care bank book a demo using this link: https://calendly.com/drsurina-1/one-t...​

Join a LIVE webinar with Dr Surina Chibber, co-founder of My Locum Manager. What we will share: Significant funding has been announced by NHS England to support Primary Care Networks (PCNs) and Practices to increase clinical capacity by establishing flexible digital staff banks.

My Locum Manager, in partnership with EMIS Health, has a unique solution to support flexible staffing across systems and places. Primary care is about relationships, therefore to truly address workforce capacity issues a staff bank needs to provide more than just shift booking. For a sustainable solution, flexible working should make it easier to not only access available staff but also to optimise local relationships and incentivise retention while providing new ways of working. We will share how you can easily build an engaged workforce community, increase the quality of care patients receive, deliver services at pace and seamlessly connect existing IT systems to automate your systems.

Ownership and pay rises in General Practice

Digital Primary Care update 6.3.21

Join Andy and Gandhi as they cover the latest news in primary care including topics such as takeovers and more

Operose ā€œpartnershipā€ to operate AT Medics

1% Pay Rise for NHS Staff

Operose - large private company

Now operate 58 practices, nearly 1% GP practices (6,658), >500,000p

Worries that GP is being parceled up and sold off to private business, foreign, American ones at that…

  • Why is this controversial?
  • Who are the players?
  • Do people understand GP ownership structures?
  • Does it matter? Should we worry?

AT Medics

  • Largest Group of GP practices in London, 37 practices, 49 sites, 120,000p
  • Innovative software and programmes - medic assistant

Operose Health

  • Owned by Centene
  • American
  • $111B Revenue
  • NHS Budget Ā£150B
  • Centene in Andaluz - Ribera Salud the template for ICS working
  • Medicaid and population health in the US, 25m Americans
  • My experience
  • Good experience of working with PCN practices
  • Good people
  • Nationally assembling a strong team
  • CMO - Nick Harding OBE / Modality

Does it Matter?

  • Londonwide LMC (Chief Exec Dr Lisa Rothwell) - Strong tradition of GP Practices being led by GPs and teams who live locally and work as part of the frontline workforce.
  • On the other hand - Investment - Efficiencies
  • increased competition to the market to improve quality for patients and get better deal for tax payer?
  • NHS sets the price and performance expectations in the contract?

Understanding ownership of general practices - PArtnerships - need to change?

NSH 1% payrise

Is it right or not?

Will you be clapping for carers or not?

Describes

Changes accelerated by COVID19

Recognises regulator must transform

Themes

People

Smart

Safe

Improve

References

New restrictions in providing care

New digital channels

New ways of working

New services

Offer regulation that is more relevant

Managing risks and uncertainty

ā€œAs the regulator of health and social care, we need to cement our place in that new world. As I’ve said previously, we’re not going to return to the way we worked previously — this will mean some big changes.ā€

Use of data and analytics and ā€œAIā€ to support intelligence-based activity - to assist regulation and target inspections?

The greater importance of dashboards

Themes

People

Look at touch points on a patient journey - patient-centered shift?

We want our information to help people make decisions about care and to enable and empower them to drive change.

Look at effectiveness systems of not just organisations but systems - PCNs, ICS, CCG?

Renewed focus on inequalities? Champion in everything we do… More pressure on systems to address these?

Smart

This means a more dynamic approach to regulating: moving away from relying on periodic inspections of services

and harnessing information from all sources to continually assess the quality and update ratings. Data will underpin all our activity, allowing us to understand risk and how people are experiencing care,

target our resources for the greatest impact, and be more proactive than reactive.

Greater use of data and dashboards to target activity

Responsive rather than cyclical and planned

Looking at the value of services to the community and effect on the overall system? - Implications for services like GP at hand?

ā€œWhere services are innovative, we’ll look at how they benefit people as well as how they

Join Andy and Gandhi for their latest Digital Primary Care update after a brief break. What is new in general practice and digital health, find out here.

Welcome eGPlearners

Back from our summer break.

Are you refreshed?

Working on DPC conferences - sign up!

Congratulations to fellow eGPlearner and long time Listener - Dr Sonali Kinra on her election to the National RCGP council.

What are we talking about this morning?

A story about NHSD plans to count GP appointment data and the focus on appointment as the unit of work https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content...

A story about how a CCG is partnering with video consult provider LIVI to make video consultations available for all of there 220,000 patients.

Story and discussion about flu immunisation in practices and preparedness

Main discussion point this week.

Mapping time and appointments in GP has been a big issue on discussion forums this week.

New Guidance on accurate monitoring of GP Appointment Data from NHS-D : https://www.england.nhs.uk/gp/gpad/

Whats happening?

Data extraction from CRS to NHSD to monitor GP activity

Why causing a buzz?

Provided a definition of of what an appointment is? What will be counted… And what will not be counted as an appointment.

Go through on the PDF….

Talking points

If something isn’t counted then is it not valued?

Extracting the appointment ledger does not reflect the work taking place

Letters

Bloods

Tasks

Undocumented phone calls

Supervising colleagues

Concern that the real amount of work taking place will be underestimated

What decisions about funding and resource allocation will be base on this data?

Secondary care better at or longer history of strategic data collection - due to historic payment mechanisms?

Leading to a wider discussion in some places about GP workload and the consequences of this being poorly defined and understood. Generally - issues of burnout?

We delude ourselves that we do 9 - 3.5hr sessions - the profession tells itself this lie?

How do you count activity….

Multiple problems in one appointment?

The number doesn’t equate to work and quality?

Everything on the ledger - make everything that can be ana appointment, an appointment

Should we instead focus on truly counting workload/activity?

Should we focus more on outcomes in this population health-driven world?

Why is this happening?

So Governement can say that there are X million more appointments after an initial count and then

In the is episode, Dr Andy Foster reflects on the last 5 months of the pandemic and how General Practice in the UK has coped with the Challenge of the Virus. In particular how technology has helped.

This is a reflective episode and revisits many of the themes covered in depth on eGPLearning over the last 6 months, providing a good overview or introduction to this topic.

The slides were prepared ahead of a presentation to Bristol Medical Technology Society, but we felt the reflections were worth sharing with the medical technology community.

Appointments in General Practice- A digital guideWelcome

Live episode, please interact

Intoductions

Todays episode inspired by chat on NHS Digital Whats App group about appointments and access

2 themes to cover….

  • What is an appointment? And what will count as activity
  • Total triage, before and after - what is the best option for the practice and its patients

Up-coming document from NHSE will set out how NHSE will harvest/access data from CRMS (S1/EMIS) to assess activity within general practice to the level of individual surgeries.

  • Information such as number and type of appointments.

Led to speculation about how this data will be used in the future…..

  • Concerns that used to judge practices and that incorrect or unfair conclusions might be reached?
  • Used to allocate resources? Correctly? Similar concerns
  • Regulatory attention?
  • Use by the media?

What constitutes as an appointment?

  • Online / Telephone /video/ F2f / Administrative activity? - would this be covered by online/asynchronous?
  • How do we log workload in practice, everything have an appointment slot ie oncall work/ admin etc.
  • Supervision/ second opinion / Administrative tasks (non patient content but often time consuming)
  • Dichotomy of primary vs secondary care contracts - PBR vs capitation based contract.

Thoughts? Gandhi

Needs to be some accountability for spending public money?

But will the right things be counted?

Demand? Or under delivery?

Can this data be helpful?

If demand/need reliably captured then can build case for redistribution?

Thoughts? Andy

Its coming - similar systems present or developing in other areas of public spending

Embrace - record everything and show our value - build the system to make this automatic

Lots of scope in recording the asynchronous/ā€onlineā€ admin work

Access and appointment options

So many - also discuss in the whatsapp

Lots of ways to structure appointment systems using different models and tools

What will / should the future look like?

Traditional models - return

Blind booking of f2f (or telephone) appointments with clinicians

Patient choice - Allow patient to book type of appointment and choose clinician

Reception guided

Total triage - during the crisis - examples

  • All clinicians triage own cases and see for continuity (basic reception/admin triage)
  • Single clinician triages incoming work and allocates to appropriate clinician or admin staff

Triage vs signposting

Tools helpful for these systems available…

Preconsultation information collection - eConsult etc.

The articles…

Event held in coop with sport england

Caused controversy around the term… Lifestyle disease

Promoting the event, the RCGP had said: ā€˜Covid-19 is a communicable virus but it is also a lifestyle disease. Obesity, diabetes and other lifestyle diseases are associated with poorer outcomes from infection.'

Caused controversy on twitter resulting in apology

RCGP virtual conference titled ā€˜Covid-19: A lifestyle disease and the vital role GPs have in beating it’

Most risk factors identified by PHE are NON-MODIFIABLE - BAME increases risk of death by 10-50%, male gender, certain types of employment where homeworking/distancing difficult.

DM & HTN may also be risk factors, and life style is a factor here, but the link to COVID outcomes becomes stretched.

Whilst we waiting for Gandhi let’s look at a story in the news….

ā€œNHS Strikes deal for Microsoft365 digital toolsā€

http://www.thehtn.co.uk/2020/06/15/nh...

https://digital.nhs.uk/services/micro...

https://news.microsoft.com/en-gb/2020...

NHSX/Digital agreed on a deal to deploy M365 tools across the NHS

Agreement runs 15 June 2020 to April 2023

Includes MS Teams - initially limited to 3m from March

Good news as some organisations and groups were holding off investing time in teams, as access could have been time-limited

Narrative from Matt Hancock and government is that

they are making most up to date digital tools available to NHS

Acknowledging innovation during COVID19

Getting the basics right.

Providing Tools for productivity, COLLABORATION and…

Cyber security right

This news is welcome and a real improvement

After using windows xp (released 2001) and IE7 (released 2006) until about 3 years ago

… and the lapsing of security updates around the time of cyber attack…

Includes...

Office 365 for Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Email and Teams

Windows 10 & security features

ā€œSignificant cost savingsā€ - But how much?

Why am I excited by this…

I’m a big fan of office 365 and have a subscription

Previously Google Drive

Office applications are more mature

better compatibility

more storage on 1 drive - 1TB! Vs 15GB with google

Creates a network effect… value of a product or service increases the more people use it - like Facebook / twitter etc.

Great for collaboration - particularly Teams

A chat, projectmanagement, document sharing, video meeting/consultation tool that is suitable for sharing patient identifiable data

THAT ALL OTHER NHS ORGANISATIONS WILL ALSO BE COMFORTABLE USING (and committed to using as

News Item….

http://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/locu...

ā€œLocum GPs forced to claim benefits as work dries upā€

Dramatic title!!!

GP workload reduced during initial COVID response

Reduced patient demand

People cancelled holidays

Retired GP working for free

Technology enabled sick or isolating staff to continue to consult and work

Locum work cancelled or Not booked

Or shifts that are available in COVID assessment clinics or COVID visiting services

Higher risk an issue for shielding locums

Worries that some of these shifts may be permanent?

Technology and e-consulting may have lasting effect on demand management?

PAtients will continue to be more confident with self care?

What do you think

Gandhi?

Andy?

Zoom Event with AiTs was interesting

Anxiety about jobs market

Fewer considering locum work and more interest in salaried and partnership

Considering applying and meeting practice during COVID interesting

Tips for ST3s… And Locums?

Andy…

Don’t panic...

ā€œThis too will passā€... things will go back to normal… probably

Continue to network, look for jobs, apply

How to be healthy in Ramadan while fasting in 2020- a resource for patients and cliniciansWith Ramadan starting in a few days this video is a simple guide of how to keep healthy during Ramadan especially during our lockdown period due to cororonavirus

šŸ”“ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/eGPlearningYTsubscribe šŸ”“

For more information see this webpage: https://egplearning.co.uk/how-to-be-healthy-in-ramadan-in-2020/

Ramadan is here and particularly in the UK, each fast is about 17 hours and especially during our coronavirus lockdown. Fasting can have a physical and emotional toll on the human body. As a result, it is worth covering the common conditions that affect people during this time and how to keep healthy in Ramadan in 2020. This information is not for religious purposes.

This information is available here as a PDF for easy sharing: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wu4koq9zbohseup/How%20to%20be%20healthy%20when%20fasting%20in%20Ramadan.pdf?dl=0

Coronavirus advice

Medically it is not advised to fast if you are symptomatic. This can lead to significant risks to your personal health. If you feel you should fast while being symptomatic please discuss with you local imam - however, this is not medically recommended.

Please do not congregate outside of your own household and use tools like Zoom or Houseparty to keep in touch with friends and family.

What to expect:

Firstly only fast if you feel able to. Several groups of people are recognised to be exempt from fasting. These include those:

āœ³ļø with an illness like coronavirus

āœ³ļø who are traveling

āœ³ļø who are young (before puberty) or of old age

āœ³ļø who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Because of the long time between starting the fast at sihori (suhoor/sunrise) and iftaar (sunset) in the UK, the fasting time of Ramadan can be a challenging 30 days of 17-hour fasts. If we have a hot summer this can make the fasting more difficult. Under coronavirus lockdown, this can be even more challenging.

The first couple of days are difficult due to adapting to the lack of fluid and food. Often, after a few days, the body becomes used to this and sleep deprivation is often a greater challenge. Ensure appropriate rest to tackle this, see below for tips.

Regarding work, explore with your employer alternate working patterns or use of leave if you are struggling. See our link on home working tips for more information.

You should NOT see your GP for a fit note in this circumstance as fasting is not a medical sickness condition.

Today will talk about the hype cycle for primary care

What is the hype cycle?

  • A graphical representation of the maturity and adoption of trends or technologies
  • Model developed by Gartner https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gartner a US research and advisory firm. It is branded, they sell reports and analysis to industry. Thanks for the concept Gartner.

Why might this be useful?

  • Useful as a way of conceptualising
    • How technologies go through the journey from discovery to mainstream use
    • Recognising that hype does not always equate to real utility
    • Understanding that many technologies don’t make it to mainstream adoption
    • And that even those that will will have a period of reduced interest
    • Main application in timing your own or your organisations adoption of a technology and reducing the risks when you choose to embrace an innovation

We are going to create the eGPLearning 2020 Primary Care Health Technology Hype Curve

Best equipment for video consultations in General PracticeDo you want to know the best equipment for video consultations in primary care and General Practice?

This blog will show you webcams, microphones and more than you may want to consider. This does contain affiliate links but all the products shown I have tried and tested unless mentioned.

Best Webcam for video consultationsWith more clinicians and patients looking towards video consultations, having the right tools is key.

Best webcams for video consultations in GPIn this episode, I review three common webcams and show you which options are best, compared with using an in-built webcam.

I review the Logitech C920 HD, Logitech C270 and the Dericam.

Logitech C920 HDLogitech C920HDMany eGPlearners will know of my love of this webcam. It shoots in high-quality HD, is simple to use, has good audio and great autofocus. It also is a great option to use for video conferencing so it can double up effectively. It is the most expensive of the three and this may be an issue to some, but being able to use it on a separate stand and get with privacy covers (although often cheaper if bought separately) it is hard not to like this webcam and is my recommended webcam for video consultations.

Logitech C270I must admit I was pleasantly surprised by this webcam. It is easily the best budget option with great audio. The camera doesn’t shoot in full HD, but this may not be an issue for many. The lack of stand attachment is an issue for me because of my preference of how I use my webcams when consulting but if this is not for you then it is the best budget webcam for video consultations in my view.

DericamI want to like the dericam. A webcam the cost of the C270 but the capabilities of the C920 HD. However, for video consultations, I find the dericam falls short of the C270. The wide-angle lens is better suited to video conferencing, and unfortunately, the in-built audio is not the best, but if you want a webcam that does the job it is often the cheapest available for the job.

Other webcamsOther webcams you may want to consider, are the Logitech Brio and the B525.

The Brio is the market leader in quality and cost and shoots in 4k definition. I would easily argue this is unnecessary for video consultations and would not recommend it unless you had the money to burn. The B525 may seem more sensible and its swivel head and business credentials make it attractive. However, it shoots at the same definition as the C270 and is double the cost just for a swivel head. I would not recommend the cost and would argue at that level the C920 HD is the better option.

StandsHaving a separate stand is a must in my view for webcam placement. I must admit I recommend a simple desk stand like this octopus one that I use. It is the perfect height for mid-screen placement and does the job. My switchpod I use more for video conferencing as the height is useful.

Microphones:I do recommend if able, to have a separate microphone than the webcam. This just improves the audio significantly. Here are some excellent options which I will be reviewing shortly.

Online meetings made easy in Primary CareCourse: https://mailchi.mp/91c7c41991ed/videoconferenceprecourse

Why have online meetings* Transport / distance * Time * Remote/home working * Disability

Types of meeting* Online * Hybrid * F2F

Advantages* Obvious -- cuts out travel time and parking -- but these can be big issues * Increases attendance, reduces the cost * People can watch the recording if they couldn’t come -- don’t even need to be available at the time of the meeting * Actually superior experience in some aspects -- can hear well, shared screen for content, slides, cocreation in documents -- these don’t need to be big meetings… * Sometimes you are enhancing or replacing a big meeting. * But can replace smaller meetings and telephone calls

What equipment do you need for an online meeting? Online Meetings for Primary Care You can start and host a meeting with just your laptop with webcam or tablet

If you just want to get started and give it a try. But if you want to run an effective hybrid meeting:

Host* Space -- regular or ad hoc * Online meeting system: Zoom -- https://bit.ly/eGPlearningZoom * Data -- 2gb broadband minimum 3G * Laptop/ desktop ideal: + Processor: minimum with 1ghz processor (however I would recommend at least an i3 2 ghz processor or higher) + Memory: 2gb ram minimum 4gb ram ideal or more. + Hard drive space: If you want to record your meetings then you will need approximately 1gb hard drive space per hour of meeting time recorded. * Webcam + Logitech C920HD- https://amzn.to/2m7y7vd + Owl meeting hub: https://amzn.to/2RlxKcZ * Microphone + Omnidirectional: https://amzn.to/2m7wGwP + Blue Yeti Microphone: https://amzn.to/2nOYwOV * Projector or TV * Speaker + Beetron: https://amzn.to/2slrqbB + Anker Soundcore 2: https://amzn.to/30LXItm * Stands + Gorilla pod- https://amzn.to/2OmDpOz + Manfrotto tripod: https://amzn.to/2n7sVHQ + Switchpod: http://bit.ly/2RFche6 * Connectors + USB 3.0 multiport: https://amzn.to/2n9f7MY + Hdmi + Usb cables: https://amzn.to/2nJvWhC + Mini display port: https://amzn.to/2IVJE8Q

Improving the Primary Care Network DES service specificationHow to improve the PCN DES

Welcome, please comment and I will try an answer

SUBSCRIBE AND COMMENT

Check out my original review where I went through the DES: here--https://youtu.be/K1qwyxt63f0

Declaration - I am not involved in the negotiations. I am Nottingham City East PCN Clinical director but these are my own thoughts. For some backstory in 2015 I wrote a further Blueprint for Primary care : https://egplearning.co.uk/a-further-blueprint-for-primary-care/ with a colleague as Jeremy Hunt launched the five year forward view. Some of these aims have been achieved (indemnity) but much can still be done.

How to improve the DES- I will talk firstly about general changes and the headline points. Then each specification in turn with my more innovative (controversial) ideas at the end.

Ethos

The release time of the specification has caused a lot of frustration. Even more so in the first webinar where little engagement was offered, just reading the spec. This led in part to one CD resigning live. NHSE doing an open consultation on the draft is a good thing. Feigning listening is not.

At points, the specification makes reference to evidence. In particular vanguard projects. However, it neglects to mention that vanguard projects have had significant higher levels of funding for each aspect and therefore converting this to specifications for networks to follow is a fallacy.

You cant use a recipe that feeds four people that costs £10 and say provide the same meal for £2 all the time - even with using foodbanks.

The original outline of the DES was to stabilise primary care. This draft does not do this but further destabilises it by utilising the additional roles above the capacity of work the can create and negates the fact networks will be part funding them. This was a poor way to show that NHSE/I was listening to the needs of general practice. Many comment the draft is intentionally too far to the right to allow any softening to be accepted as better than the original. This is a sceptics dream.

For this process to work- show General Practice that NHSE is truly listening. Much of this has been done amazingly by Dr Nikki Kanani and I do not envy her position. I am mindful of do not shoot the messenger being very apt here.

Lets move on. The following is a combination of my views and those from the various forums I engage in.

Trust

General practice. If I had control I would keep existing structures that could help foster better collaborative working and simply offer the resources to networks to use for their local area.

General Practice has proved to be the most cost-effective method of delivering healthcare currently doing 90% of the NHS workload for less than 9% of the funding. Trust the networks to deliver primary care with the simple metric of improving the health of the network population.

Ideally to the global sum but is not then to the networks directly to use as they seem fit to provide roles or services for better patient care along them 5 categories as best for their population.

However, we do not live in a world of trust despite GPs consistently being the most trusted role in the country.

So if working towards the confines of adjusting the existing DES and its specification let us have a look.

Worth looking at the Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire LMC document link:

Primary Care Network DES specification review 2019My review of the 2019 Primary Care Network Service Specification- the good, the bad and the confusing.

This is the live recorded review of the draft primary care network service specification.

Make sure you leave your own feedback via the survey here (see bottom of page), or send an email to england.networkscontract@nhs.net

Below is the draft version of my notes.

Welcome

My perspective on the primary care network service specs

Cover the good, the bad and the confusing.

Check out my PCN resources and General practitioner playlist (in show notes)

Save you and your patients time with tech enhancing your primary care and learning

Why I am talking about this - am a GP also PCN director of NCE - 66k patients in a deprived area of Nottingham.

Firstly the timing of the documents

Release of specs day before Xmas eve- while aware impacted by the election, purdah and process, it speaks to the perception that when PCN CDs work is irrelevant to NHS England.

However, I commend Nikki Kanani’s engagement on SoMe and the will to gain feedback before making the spec official,

as well as engagement events beforehand (twitter chat and webinars)

So emphasis that this is draft specifications and can be changed. So let us take a look…..

The document starts by talking about the investment being offered. While there is a significant increase in funding being offered, it is important to note the UK still invests less than most other western countries especially in the G8 at about $1000 less per person.

It also mentions a 5-year contract. I would like to mention that it is not really a 5y contract but a 5y agreement of the funds. If it was a contract the terms would be clear from the start. Instead, we are having ongoing annual negotiations of the requirements - which is no different to what we have been exposed to in primary care.

It then identifies seven asks or as they have been locally called the significant seven of which five are to start from April 2020 and another two from April 2021

  • Structured Medication Reviews and Optimisation •
  • Enhanced Health in Care Homes (jointly with community services providers) •
  • Anticipatory Care (jointly with community services providers) •
  • Personalised Care; and •
  • Supporting Early Cancer Diagnosis

1.8 When will we have clarity on the process and use of the Network Dashboard?

1.11 Funding is not allocated directly for the delivery of the service specifications - let that sink in.

1.12 Extra capacity from the new roles in 20/21 - much of this was promised to stabilise practices not ask them to do more and does not allow for the extra 30% investment which is not supported by the existing pots.

1.16 funding for community service providers commented - limited

Shout out to our friends … Health Technology News Paper, your daily dose of information for the health technology community

Despite being so ubiquitous and groundbreaking in its time, this is a medium that is almost universally loathed…

Today we’re talking about email...

We have a complex love-hate relationship with email… Mostly we hate it...

As a clinician email can be particularly frustrating. We have so many ways to receive information tasks and work. And we spend most of our dealing with patients or tasks directly related to patient care. It can feel like Other people working in primary care have more time allocated for purely administrative activities like reading email…

It is definitely worth giving how you manage email some thought...

Why is email frustrating?... (Identifying the challenges)

Email overload

Time issue, can take so long, when do i do it?

Email anxiety - what’s in my inbox?...

Discussion vs response - wrong tool?

Etiquette - why am i getting this email? Tone and controversial topics...

Emails at intrusive at times

What are the possible solutions?

Basic Principals… Three Ps

Parkinson’s Law - allocate set, limited time - batching

Pareto Principal - 80/20 - concentrate on where your efforts will have impact

Pomedoro - 25 minute dashes, 5 minutes break to complete email or tasks

Getting Organised

Inbox Zero & Getting to Done….

2 min rule

Scheduling for later

Tag, Folders or archive and search?

Check out Gandhi’s episode on productivity: https://youtu.be/paTZy7K8hsU

Etiquette

Should this be an email at all? email / phone / meet

reply all, waiting on replies, cc, bcc

Font and confidentiality

Emojis in professional emails

Use the right address for the right reason - security log in

Add the email address last - just in case

Identify action or information

Use the subject line well… and first 2 lines - Project management style - timelines

Templates and signatures,

Dealing with volume/overload

Unsubscribe and whitelist vs junk

Do not disturb

Choose your tools wisely? But don’t obsess

We discuss our current email setups and tips for email platforms and apps

Interface/platform - bluemail

What do you use?

Gandhi - blue mail and Gmail

Andy - outlook

But my phone is always with me… Do not disturb mode

Switch off the notification?

How to email patients: Email use by practices in General Practice

Email audit

Set aside a time frame to do an email audit - sources, folders, and freq - put it in your calendar!!!

Things to think about as clinicians…

Use the right platform or email address for any clinical or sensitive information.

Secure your device.

Alternatives?

People are trying to make email better

Slack, Asana…. Adding project management and team coordination

So how do you feel about email now love or hate?

Wearable Technology for General Practice - eGPlearning PodBlast Show Notes

Wearable health technology, is it all hype?

We discuss our experience with wearable technology in our day to lives as GPs. How patients and health professionals are beginning to use devices such as smart-watches and fitness trackers, the impact on Primary Care and how this class of device might develop in the future.

What have we been up to?Andy - Beginning to work as a Primary Care Network Clinical Director and promoting the Nottingham Based Digital GP FellowshipGandhi - Attending a number of conferences, working on the eGPlearning platform

Gandhi has featured in an episode of AskPat, the hugely popular Podcast from @PatFlyn. Listen here

A word from our partners - HTNHTN The health tech news paper - an innovative daily news and opinion website for the health tech networkHTN Health Tech award winner revealed - go have a look!https://www.thehtn.co.uk/2019/10/04/htn-awards-2019-winners-revealed/

What is wearable health tech?What is wearable health technology No real definition...We have always had wearable health tech - hearing aids, early insulin pumps, overnight pulse oximetry...Previously been expensive, but now rapidly developing areas as smartphones, and later health tracking industries have created a volume market for sensors, processors, wireless communication chips/tech. Meaningful wearable health technology is now cheaper to produce and develop.

What does wearable tech do?Capture informationTracking vital signs and observationsMonitoring for events such as falls & fitsMovement and activityTreatment compliance - activity, physio, medication adherenceBody-worn biochemical sensors - e.g. glucose, ECG

Use the dataIdentify unrecognised events or track vitals during an event - eg. palpitations - For a good example see Kardia: Monitor disease activity - eg. diabetesMake sense of larger data sets for meaningful health insights

InterveneSuggest and administer medication such as insulinAlert family or paramedics to intervene - e.g. fall

What do we think about Wearable Health Technology?Andy discusses his experiences with the AppleWatch platform. AppleWatch on Amazon -

Gandhi discusses experiences with:Fitbit - Good brand, reliable, fits well, great metrics, less smartwatch that tracker - universal platforms

LetsCom fitness trackers - Pros- cost, battery life, simplicity, rugged. Cons- function, basic

Gandhi is also a fan of those devices with the tracking capabilities of fitness trackers but the appearance of a normal watch such as the Muse and Withings ranges.https://www.musewearables.com/https://www.withings.com/uk/

We discuss our thoughts on the current situation with wearables and the future… Including... It would be great if/when apps available to make sense of the data - perhaps integrating with my health record…But, sometimes I want to wear a different watch… Perhaps seen only as a health/comms device...Will those who need it want to use it - Grandads and hearing aides…Are they just for exercise and fitness?Security & privacy concerns?Apple vs Google - will there be a small number of dominant players due to platform effects?

4:45 laptop or tablet: I use the Microsoft surface pro 6Ā 05:25 mini display port - an essential if you are delivering a presentation:Ā 06:10 Pen and paper - Dingbat notebookĀ  and Frixion penĀ 06:50 headphones and external Seagate USB hard driveĀ

How to register with your local GPTo obtain healthcare from an NHS GP (General Practitioner) you need to be registered with a practice. In this post learn how you can register with your local GP.

Registering with your local GP surgery is an easy process, but there are some considerations to make. Listen below to hear how, or watch the video at the end of this post to see more. In summary:

By paper:You need a GMS 1 form. You can obtain this from your practice, or download from the nhs.uk site here. An example is below:

GMS 1 form frontWhen completing the form, complete all relevant sections on the first page:

  • Your details - needed to register you
  • Details of your previous practice or address- to track your records quickly
  • If you are eligible for veteran care as part of the armed forces.
  • If you are registering your child- if you need ongoing child health surveillance care (under 5's).
  • If you need the use of dispensing service ( where the practice provides your physical prescription instead of a local pharmacy). This is more common for rural practices.
  • Opting in/out of organ and blood donation services.

The top of the back of the GMS 1 form is completed by the practice (not the patient).

The final section on the back is relevant if you are an ordinary resident (normally living abroad or visiting England) to confirm the level of care you may receive.

Other ways to fill the form are to access it via your practice website.

Reasons a practice may not register you:Sometimes a practice may not be able to register you. This would be if :

  • the practice list is closed to new patients
  • if you are outside of the registered practice area
  • if you have previously been removed from a practice list (certain situations and rare).

You may be asked to provide photographic ID or proof of address. This is not compulsory but recommended as it can help speed up the registration process. This includes:

  • passport
  • driving licence
  • residence permit
  • ARC card
  • utility bill

Also, providing a copy of your repeat medications can make a new registration easier.

The GMS 1 form is different from the temporary registration form and provides a different service.

To find which practices you can register with ask local residents, community leaders, housing support teams or use the nhs.uk website here.

NHS AppYou can register via the NHS app.

This is the gateway to health services and enables you to register with a practice quickly via your smartphone device.

The NHS app also allows you to:

  • book an appointment at your local practice
  • order your regular (repeat) medications
  • look at your medical records
  • use a symptom checker
  • search health condition information from the nhs.uk website
  • confirm your organ and blood donation choices

Further functionality is due in the next few years and some areas may have extra services.

Other appsOther companies can provide you with health care via an app system. Companies like Babylon,(including their GP at Hand system), Push Doctor, QDoctor and Livi all use apps to register patients. Some claims that you can be register

Social Media Guidance for Doctors and clinicians: pre-SCRIBEAre you aware of the social media guidance that exists to keep doctors, clinicians and patients safe?

In this post, I show you various forms of formal social media guidance, why these are needed and explore my own easy to use version called pre-SCRIBE.

Following recent articles in magazines like STAT that have commented why doctors shouldn’t use social media, other reply articles by the organisation SoMeDocs and SELF have shown why doctors and clinicians should. But the important part is like with any tool to use social media safely.

Formal guidance exists like that from the General Medical Council (GMC), the Royal College of GPs (RCGP), the British Medical Association (BMA) and the American Medical Association (AMA) to name a few.

These are detailed and less effective in the moment, so I would suggest using a quicker tool call pre-SCRIBE. pre-SCRIBE (before you write) stands for

  • Share
  • Confidentiality
  • Respect
  • Identity
  • Boundaries
  • Engage

This episode explores all these aspects and I share how they can be useful, including other tips to help keep you safe when using social media as a doctor.

What type of doctors bag should you use for visiting patients? A guide by DrGandalfThe debate on what type of bag you should use when visiting patients rages on. In this video I show you my choices and what you should consider when buying a visiting bag as a doctor.

So which type of doctors bag should you consider?There are generally two schools of thought on this:

  • a hard bag
  • not a hard bag

The clear benefit of a hard bag is the fact it can be used as a seat for home visits. Additionally, the more robust nature can imitate security for contents and rarely personal security. Whether hard or soft, in terms of cost this may vary from bargain basement rucksack from your local shop to designer medical or retail bags including maternity bags.

In reality what you truly need is simply a comfortable bag to carry, with several pockets, somewhere to keep paperwork and ideally a lock on one compartment if you plan on carrying FP10 prescriptions and/or meds.

https://youtu.be/UBGMDYEzMYoThe bags I mention and more:The Merlin Morgan bag - was my first doctor's bag. Really large, robust and more pockets than a magician (hence the name I guess). I now use it as my camera bag.

Alternatives are the Gima utility bag with a packet which a colleague has used for a while. The extra packet is useful for keeping medications and small items in. Alternately an effective camera bag can be a great choice as a doctor's visiting bag and on several forums, these are often the preferred options my many.

My first Hi-Tec rucksack visit bag was ok but my current Hi-Tec visiting bag is much better. It has lasted me about 4 years now, is large enough to carry everything I need but still small enough to be portable and functional. The material could be better padded and insulated, an issue in cold weather which can affect equipment working like thermometers.

Trainee bag- Duragadget This is the doctors bag we have for our trainees. It is similar to the Hi-Tec bag above but solves the insulation issue. It is also waterproof.

Harder bags like pilot chest are preferred by many given they are more robust and business like.

Or makeup chests can be a great option if you want a really solid bag that you can also sit on. the multiple compartments make this really useful.

Kipling bags: and Mulberry bags are good fashion bags that can be effective as a visit bag. NOt my particular preference but often a good choice and ones several colleagues have used.

IYASU is a company that is looking to make visit bags specifically designed for doctors in the UK. Keep an eye out for more information.

If you want to know what to put in your doctor's bag check out my equipment posts below.

How to work quicker in primary care using technology - our top 10 tips.Watch this episode recorded for the HTN Digital week on how you can work quicker in primary care using technology.

Join Andy and Gandhi of the eGPlearning Podblast team as they share their top tips on how you can work quicker in primary care. These are universal tips for all members of General practice like GPs, nurses, paramedics, pharmacists, health care workers and more

https://youtu.be/YqcLFIysofETracking TimeThis is important to understand which areas you may need to focus on in order to work quicker in primary care. One tool to consider is Clockify which can easily be used to track your time. See our video which explains this tool and why it might be the best one for use in general practice.

Text expanders and autoconsulationsEach system in primary care has its own method of helping you document more information quickly. EMIS has shortcodes, Systm One has autoconsultations. If you want a tool that sits outside of the clinical system, consider a text expander like in the eGPlearning support pack.

Things to consider is hot to personalise these tools and the probity of use.

Automation and protocolsEach clinical system has ways to help you automate the work you do. SystmOne has autoconsultations and protocols, EMIS has macros, and I am sure other systems have similar.

Using these tools can significantly save you time. As SystmOne users, Andy and I use autoconsultations for streamlining work like our anticipatory medication prescriptions for end of life care. If you want access to this join the eGPlearning mailing list or a community of support like S1 FBUG or EMIS web FB user group.

Companies can offer these systems without you making your own. This can further save time but comes with a cost. See Ardens for SystmOne or for EMIS try PrimaryCareIT.

Workflow and remote workingHow you manage workflow in your practice will drastically affect your workload. Look at these four points about any task:

  • Who
  • What
  • Where
  • When

You can even add why on there at times. Remember, if a task does not require a face to face encounter, can it be done remotely and hence at scale. Remote working can also help with job satisfaction. See the video below

https://youtu.be/imDiWTrn-7MType fasterIf you want to work quicker, then typing quicker can really save you time. To help, see our episode on Keybr - an online tool that can help speed up your typing speed. A great PDP item for your appraisal and will definitely help you work quicker in primary care.

Another great tip we got from Deen Mirza in his FRAYED consultation book is to type while the patient is there. What do you think? Would you do this.

DictationIf you really do not like typing, then dication may be the answer. Modern systems have significantly improved and learn with in built systems to

This is a must see video if you are about to become a newly qualified GP.

CCTing… What you need to know and do.šŸ”“ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/eGPlearningYTsubscribe šŸ”“

GMC

You should get an email from the GMC approx. 3-6 months before you are due to CCT inviting you to make sure all your details are up to date, including your email address. Check it!

Once your final ARCP is completed and you get an Outcome 6, you will be contacted by RCGP/or via eportfolio to click ā€˜apply for CCT’ and you will be guided through the process. Remember you need to pay your fee to the GMC to be added to the GP register (Ā£399, currently being reviewed) https://www.gmc-uk.org/registration-and-licensing/managing-your-registration/fees-and-funding

Performers listMake sure you are on the performers list and clarify your region’s requirements to update the record from ā€˜registrar’ to ā€˜GP salaried/partner/locum etc’. If you are moving areas, there are notification forms on the website. https://www.performer.england.nhs.uk/

IndemnityMake sure you update your indemnity provider with your changing work details (with dates) and continue to do so.

Pensions and Financial AdviceConsider your finances, and what and how you are earning will likely change on CCTing. Ask around for accountants and financial advisors that colleagues use, and consider income protection. Watch our video on Money advice for GP locums, salaried and partners - https://youtu.be/XhCE8xZlFmI

NetworksGet in touch with your local First5 network.

How to use email in General Practice

After Matt Hancock announced that email should be used over faxes and even post for communication with patients, some practices may be struggling to understand how to make these changes. This video post will highlight some of the areas to consider and tips on how to do this.

Set upWhat system will you use- currently approved are nhs.net and office365. Criteria for other providers can be found here. https://digital.nhs.uk/services/nhsmail/the-secure-email-standardIt is worth having a patient facing inbox/address and a practice-based one for different communication routes. Consider different ones for results/ prescribing etc. Suggest a generic email address for each to manage with a clear description as part of the email address ie prescriptionspracticeX@nhs.net or appointmentsSurgeryY@office365.com as examples. Consider who and how often you will monitor the inboxesEstablish as a practice how the additional time needed to run emails will be used, especially if clinically basedIf this is a system change, make this public. Use waiting room displays, footers on letters, social media platforms and patient participation groups (PPG) to advocate the use. Even consider a link on the prescription counterfoil. Test wording of standard letters to make sure the practice is happy, even agree with indemnity provider or PPG if appropriate.Email communication is part of the clinical record. Look at how this will be stored or transferred. If standard letters are used these may not need adding directly, but a clear system for recordings like templates or autoconsultations/macros should be used. Consider using mailing list providers to help make this process easier, however, discuss with your local IT department on governance of providers.

Sign upAbide by the data protection guidelines like GDPR, collecting information for what you need. Use either sign up sheet or confirmation via SMS/email with a link to your rules. A key tip is make this public ie on your website and use the link to share- easy via email, SMS or other. Make this the central governance hub for all your documents so you only have to update one place. I would recommend adding a box that the patient agrees to all disclaimers as per below. This should be repeated in the confirmation message. In this sheet/link be clear about how the practice will use the communication ie - sharing results, clinic letters, appointment information etc. If unsure or starting, try areas you are comfortable with and progress from there. Use a template or autoconsultation/ macro to make this process easier for staff to support patients. On sign up, instill a test email or SMS is sent at that time to confirm the identity and accuracy of the information given. In this test email or message include a link to whitelisting emails. This is where a user confirms this is an email they want to receive. Include this in the footer of your emails as well which will help to ensure the messages do not end up in the junk folder. The following is an excellent link which shows this information

https://www.whatcounts.com/resources/checklists/how-to-whitelist-emails/An additional option to help patients is to guide them to use folders to sort their emails from the practice.

Disclaimers:

Also, include a disclaimer about patients protecting their data once they have received it. A practice is not responsible for onwards use or transmission of email or text message once it has been received by the patient/service userInclude also that maintaining the integrity of the contact method ie correct number is the responsibility of the patient.Commercial email providers are not as secure as those systems used in the NHS so include a line about being awa

What do you think is the best primary care paediatric resources?

In my experience, I have yet to find a complete resource that beats the paediatric pearls website.

Click image to watch the videoCreated by Dr Julia Thompson and her team, based in London working for the NHS, paediatric pearls regularly produce and update paediatric newsletters for both primary care (general practice) and emergency medicine. In addition, they collate guidelines for condition management and referral guidance for most paediatric conditions.

As a result, paediatric pearls is an excellent resource for helping with your continuous professional development (CPD/ CME) especially for GP trainees (AiT).

Hello eGPlearners, Ā in this news update- covering the big stories for primary care over the past week…. lets tech-enhance your primary careIf the first time we are meeting Im Dr Gandalf of eGPlearning where I look at supporting you with technology-enhanced primary care and learning so don't forget to subscribe and ring the bell to be the first to get notified of all these updates. https://egplearning.co.uk/Let us startGP partnership reviewThis piece of the future of General practice was released on Monday 14.1.19 as led by Nigel Watson with seven recommendations at the heart of the review. Recommendation 1: There are significant opportunities that should be taken forward to reduce the personal risk and unlimited liability currently associated with GP partnerships. Recommendation 2: The number of General Practitioners who work in practices, and in roles that support the delivery of direct patient care, should be increased and funded. Recommendation 3: The capacity and range of healthcare professionals available to support patients in the community should be increased, through services embedded in partnership with general practice. Recommendation 4: Medical training should be refocused to increase the time spent in general practice, to develop a better understanding of the strengths and opportunities of primary care partnerships and how they fit into the wider health system. Recommendation 5: Primary Care Networks should be established and operate in a way that makes constituent practices more sustainable and enables partners to address workload and safe working capacity, while continuing to support continuity of high quality, personalised, holistic care. Recommendation 6: General practice must have a strong, consistent and fully representative voice at system level. Recommendation 7: There are opportunities that should be taken to enable practices to use resources more efficiently by ensuring access to both essential IT equipment and innovative digital services.From a digital perspective recommendation 7 is key. Updating systems and allowing innovation must happen, Digitising records would be a major support to practices and help to tackle another uncosted area on subject access requests. Taking this burden away from partners would be very useful. Also working better with statutory organisations for reports for DWP and DVLA would be helpful and reduce considerable administrative burdens on practices. In this past week I have done three reports for the same patient all relating to the DWP- one unified system would reduce unnecessary workload. Updating our IT infrastructure and policies more in line with consumer tech is also a must. Tackling the ā€˜computer says no’ mentality due to a reliance on legacy IT would allow primary care to truly innovate, and I eagerly await the day I do not have to use internet explorer 8 in practice. Many will know I have been critical of the interim review which was published last year. The final review is, however, a good document that identifies the challenges facing partnership and also commends the positive impact the partnership model has in primary care. Several of the recommendations are high quality and call on other pieces of work to deliver an improvement for partnership in practice- particularly the call for a sort out of indemnity and the premises review. I do still feel strongly that a key piece lacking is a direct request to increase the global sum funding for practices, as this would significantly and rapidly improve the partnership the workload impact for partners and attract more staff making it more viable and sustainable. I do still see this as a major omission of the review which is in the terms of reference. It should have been requested and using the long term plan as the vehicle to suggest increased funding does not directly help as this still requires increased work for new money, rather than offer a stabilising impact.

What is the best haematology app?

Watch this review of Buku Haematology - a useful clinical reference resource that details how to manage haematological investigation results, work up for common haematological conditions and emergencies.

With a clean interface and clear explanations and reference to BMJ, CKS and national guidance it really is a valuable resource for anyone in primary care.

The highs and lows section covers individual test results and the implications of them to help clinicians understand how to manage the results in the context of each patient.

The coagulation section gives useful guides on problems with coagulation including FAQs on DOACs like Rivaroxaban.

The workup section explains common presentations and considerations for haematological conditions and how to manage from a primary care perspective and what point to refer.

The obstetric section has useful criteria for managing anaemia in pregnancy. The emergency section helps guide how to manage complex haematological emergencies.

Created by Dr Alex Langridge and Prof Steven O'Brian it really is a useful app that is updated in content on a regular basis.

Hello eGPlearners, Ā in this news update- covering the big stories for primary care over the past week…. lets tech-enhance your primary careIf the first time we are meeting Im Dr Gandalf of eGPlearning where I look at supporting you with technology-enhanced primary care and learning so don't forget to subscribe and ring the bell to be the first to get notified of all these updates. https://egplearning.co.uk/Let us startLong term planCalled the 10year plan or 10YLTP released on 7.1.19. This video is a review of the executive summary, as the full document is 136 pages long as will take some time to digest. What are the headline points?https://www.longtermplan.nhs.uk/online-version/overview-and-summary/Split into seven chapters. Chapter 1Spend an increased amount of funds on bringing successfully implemented changes to healthcare of care to other areas. Right to digital GP consultations. (doesn't say video). Focus on networks of practices (likely to be called either neighborhoods or PCNs) to deliver care in communities for primary, community and social care to prevent hospital admissions. Focus on social prescribing, personal health budgets and the voluntary sector. Guarantee of a greater rate of funding for the first time ever under a Tory government for primary care using the previously announced Ā£4.5b for community care by 2023/4.Shift away from hospital-based care for both outpatients (maybe video consultations for outpatient to reduce infrastructure costs like estates/parking etc). Video Consultations in primary care:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw0ehthmFN0Focus on urgent treatment centres instead of emergency departments and same day discharge from acute wards. Chapter 2Prevention. Focus on prevention ie stop smoking, obesity programme, supporting reducing alcohol - much of this seems public health territory no longer funded by local councils - sharing the costs or shuffling the money? Focus on deprived groups with outcomes like smoking rates in pregnancy, learning disabled /autistic patients and homeless patients to name a few based on locally supported programmes. Chapter 3.This identifies priorities for care quality and improvements, particularly on mental health. Focus on cancer survival, maternity-related deaths, increasing planned (elective surgery) and ring-fenced funds for mental health (2.3bn a year by 2023/4)Chapter 4Looking at Workforce, reintroducing training budgets for health education England (taken away in recent reforms) and a workforce implementation plan for later this year. Increased funding for nursing training and routes into training including recruitment from overseas. Also new roles with a focus on professional development especially in primary care based on networks. Chapter 5 Details the focus on technology including digital access for all, interoperability of data and use of new technology like AI. This chapter will be covered in more detail in our in-depth look later in the month. Chapter 6Looks at changes to the financial structure of the NHS to maintain funding increases to prevent challenges in the future including various efficiencies ie saving Ā£700m in administrative costs. Chapter 7The final chapter explained the implementation of the plan including legislative changes to enable rapid implementation. It recommends changes to: create publicly-accountable integrated care locally; to streamline the national administrative structures of the NHS, and remove the overly rigid competition and procurement regime applied to the NHS.

Must own GP app- Nottinghamshire LMC appHi #eGPlearners , with millions of apps out there how do you know which ones you should use. Try one of my top 5 apps as a must own GP app- the Nottinghamshire LMC app.

Watch the video here and do not forget to subscribe to be the first to see future episodes.

TipThursday

The Nottinghamshire LMC app in my view is a must own GP app.

It contains multiple resources useful for any GP at any stage of their career. Linking to BMA resources means that although Nottinghamshire centric, the app is relevant to GPs in any geographic location. This includes a guidance section which is kept up to date, resources for partners, trainees, practice managers, and sessional GPs.

The app contains useful news links and contact details including local LMC events (Nottinghamshire focused).

The SHOP library allows you to share experience and innovation while the services section links to valuable resources offered by the LMC.

Finally, the Wellbeing section is diverse with multiple resources, tools, and links to financial, mental health, well-being, support and self-development help.

I find this a truly useful app with multiple resources. One development could be to enhance reporting like the BEAM to LMC app offered by the Londonwide LMC.

Take a look and download the app from the link here.

Are you hoping for a Dry January?

Hi #eGPlearners - are you hoping for a Dry January? Check out this Dry January app review on how the app works and whether it is useful for individuals or patients.

Click on the image below to see the full video or read below.

It is reasonable to assume that alcohol drinking increases over December with Christmas parties, festive celebrations over the holiday period and New Years which also culminate in lesser-known occasions like Black eye Friday.

But with a new year comes change and a slew of new years resolutions. Many may participate in Dry January - where you do not drink alcohol for the whole month. To support people, the Alcohol Change UK charity has created the Dry January app, but is it any good?

The app is easy and free to download. It asks for your current drinking habits and lets you add this quickly and easily. Presenting you with an approximate unit intake, cost and calorie intake per week is also a good set of metrics to use.

The app does ask if you want to contribute and savings you make as a pledge. I think this is reasonable as the Alcohol Charity UK have created this app for free and offer you the choice. Better yet- even if you pledge it is only a percentage of the savings you have made so technically you are not paying for it.

Logging your habits is easy and customisable. The main dashboard provides clear information and some resources to support you.

However, I think the app could be improved. while Dry January can be a useful idea, for those significantly high drinkers stopping suddenly can be dangerous and clearer warnings on this would be more ideal particularly when logging your intake. Also signposting to regional support services would be a more useful way to use the app.

Overall, I like the app and think it works better than many of the tools in the patient health records I use. If it leads to a permanent change in drinking habits this can be really helpful, although it is important to remember that boom or bust methods to cut vices can sometimes lead to rebound use which can be just as damaging to a person's health. Subjectively many clinical colleagues mention higher admission rates for alcohol misuse in the first two weeks of February and Dry January may be the cause.

3 GPs in an eGPlearning Podblast

Welcome by Andy, Gandhi and…….Shubz

How did Shubz get into podcasting from his mygpevents journey to listening to inspirational speakers. This led to his podcast 2GPs in a pod and speaking with Zoe Williams, Rupy Aujla and others

ā€˜You do not have to leave medicine to do all this other cool stuff’

Gandhi talks about having flux in your working week as recommended by notable people like Warren Buffet and Pat Flynn

We discuss how to utilise time as a locum for portfolio working and balance in your roles.

Andy talks about the ease of saying yes, but the importance of saying no occasionally

We then discuss the Next Gen GP programme created by Nishma Manek with amazing talks by Nikki Kanani (our Supreme leader- including how difficult it has been for both podcasts to pin her down for an interview given NHS England oversight).

Gandhi talks about the importance of teams around you and how they can support you ie his partners and working on the podblast with Andy as a team.

Shubz echoed this with a shout out to his MyGPevents partners Mehul and Max.

We did a recap of Andy and Gandhi’s year, starting with Gandhi which including being elected and attending his first RCGP Council meeting as a National Rep, and the importance of having your say- including his controversial comments on the partnership review by Nigel Watson.

We all talked about how the omission of a baseline increase in the global sum seemed confusing and the impact of indemnity funding and planned changes to pension regulations that may significantly impact the future of GP partnerships.

Gandhi finished off with talking about his continued efforts with the eGPlearning platform including TipThursday on YouTube, and his 84km Pilgrimage in Iraq in October.

Andy talks about his work with the NCGPA including signposting health- a project applicable to any locality to help with practice-based signposting, his video journey for patient information videos for the area:

Which has gone mainstream by being shown in the Broadway Cinema in Nottingham in the new year.

He also talked about the power as a partner being able to innovate in your own practice. HIs focus has been on creating a user-friendly website seen here: Parkside medical practice

Note Andy did all the illustrations, which is also on offer to your our listeners as part of the collaborator reward for supporting the eGPlearning Podblast on Patreon account. At this limited reward, Andy will draw you into our new banner as a caricature.

Hi #eGPlearners do you need some Headspace?

Working in healthcare whether as a GP, part of the primary care team or in hospitals can be emotionally stressful. There are many ways to manage stress and lately mindfulness is seen as an effective tool to support stress management. But access can be tricky – so let us look to technology to help in the form of Headspace.

  • Edit

Headspace was founded in 2010 by Rich Pierson and Andy Puddicombe (who wrote the Headspace guide to Mindfulness and Medication). The Headspace platform offers unique content varying from guided meditations to animations and videos via the Headspace website and mobile app, teaching users the techniques of mindfulness.

The app is free to download and use with extra features behind a subscription paywall. These extra functions include modules to help deal with stress, difficulties in focusing, sleep issues, chronic pain, fear of flying and more. It also has dedicated sections to help with younger people such as settling the active child at night.

The variable module length is useful with a minimum of 3 minutes meaning anyone can use at some point in the day.

I love the animations which do draw me in, and the interface which is easy to use. The guided meditations work well and its simplicity is a key reason I do recommend this app to patients as well. With often limited timely access to mental health support, I have found this a useful tool for several patients as an adjunct to their treatment. Just simply switch on the app, select your module and time length, audio or headphones on and go.

The app also continues to work if you have to multi-task with your device. I accept this may defeat the object of guided mindfulness- but a useful feature to know about.

Additionally, the app is resource packed including the obstacle section in the settings which are short free modules which offer advice on overcoming obstacles when trying to use the app such as worry, posture, stiffness, pain etc.

With the rise of AI assistants like Google Home, Siri, and Alexa you can also set Headspace to run from these systems like using the Headspace Skill for your Amazon Echo.

As mentioned the extra modules come at a cost. Last year Headspace was offered as part of the BMA membership at a reduced rate (as mentioned in a previous eGPlearning Podblast episode).

Currently, the app is on offer for £44 for a year compared to £9.99 a month or £72 a year if paid annually.

Another option is to sign up at a reduced rate via Anxiety UK as part of their membership.

I do like the interface and it is simple to use, however, I would like to change the voice if possible to customise it more, also I can see how social sharing of goals can be a valuable asset, much how many running apps use this method as a motivator. However, I can also appreciate this is not a feature all users would want given how physical health and mental health are viewed.

Feel free to given Headspace a try either for yourself or for patients.

Hi #eGPlearners

I am a big fan of social media and often I get asked how can I use social media effectively as a clinician. In this series, we will look at how to use Twitter as a clinician.

Twitter is a micro-blog site that lets you post (tweet) comments or re-port (retweet) comments of others to share information. Originally tweets were limited to 140 characters but this has now increased to 280 – however, you still have to be concise.

Twitter allows the rapid sharing of information and can be an effective way of supporting learning and information discovery as well as networking.

This TipThursday focuses on the basics of creating an account the first step to using Twitter. This includes creating your own profile and initial guidance on where to find medical tweeters (or twits if you want ;p) to follow (check out this twitter list for hints). For information on creating safe passwords read the blog post here:

Next week we will look at the anatomy of a tweet including common terms and how you can post, learn more about profiles and start on your journey to become a part of the Twitterati. The final week will cover more tips on using Twitter including specifically as a clinician and important considerations.

Please comments and share any challenges you have, or if this TipThursday has made you take the leap into Twitter let me know. I am happy to help on @drgandalf52 or @egplearning.

Hi #eGPlearners

Welcome to the weekly showcase of Technology-enhanced primary & learning resources from eGPlearning.

This episode looks at NHS Digital resources and governance posted on the eGPlearning Facebook page (facebook.com/Egplearning/) or available here:

This is pertinent guidance that talks about four key areas such as instant messaging apps, video conferencing, bring your own device (BYOD) and mobile device use in hospital.

Listen to the video below or read our brief notes under for more details.

Messaging apps:This document outlines key aspects such as encryption, passcode use, notification issues, and remote wiping- key aspects with most of the following guidance.

The guidance does not specify which apps to use despite mentioning a few and ignores apps specifically used for secure healthcare instant messaging like Siilo, Forward and Cupris to name a few. This was covered in our previous episodes of the eGPlearning Podblast about GDPR and our interview with Dr Aisha Malik.

Video Conferencing:This guidance offers information about the use of video conferencing as a service provider, clinician and aspects for patients to be aware. It also offers a template consent form citing that use should not be compulsory. These are interesting aspects which are covered in more detail in the upcoming eGPlearning Podblast episode out at the end of this month. Click the links below to make sure you subscribe for this episode which talks in depth about video conferencing in primary care.

BYODIncreasingly BYOD is being considered for healthcare delivery given the lower cost to organisations and increasing in remote and part time working. This document does outline key issues to consider as both a provider and user. Particularly focusing on safety and responsibility such as two-factor authentication, sandboxing of software and remote wiping of data.

Mobile device use in hospitals. How devices are used is changing. This document does outline key considerations and regulations that are applicable. The last sheet is an excellent summary.

What are your thoughts on these NHS Digital resources?

eGPlearning Podblast is the UK's leading primary care focussed health tech podcast by two Nottingham based GPs covering recent topics, useful clinical apps, interviews with primary care health tech innovators and in-depth perspectives on health tech.

Hosted by Dr Hussain Gandhi (@drGandalf52) and Dr Andrew Foster (@drawfoster).

In this episode, Dr Gandalf talks to Dr Aisha Malik owner of Doctorsinbusiness.org a website which is dedicated to getting doctors and medics more visible online.

We talk about her acceptance onto the Clinical entrepreneur fellowship led by Prof Tony Young (@DrTonyYoung).

We discuss if GPs are ideally placed to change the NHS.

I challenge Aisha to Make a video blog for all the eGPlearners to learn from regarding her experiences.

Aisha then explains her top 5 tips for using social media as a practice. See her Pulsetoday article here.

We then discuss the implications of consulting on social media including how that may differ from the work of Babylon, Pushdoctor and Doctor Care Anywhere.

I then ask Aisha her favourite work an non-work related apps. We talk about a project management app Asana and then discuss other methods like Siilo or Forward.

We then talk about her favourite non-clinical app- Audible - like the netflix of reading - ideal for any podcast listeners.

We finish off asking the perennial question. How would you spend £100 million on health tech with no red tape.

To contact Dr Aisha Malik either on twitter or on the Doctorsinbusiness website.

Here is your certificate of engagement.

In the next episode, we cover the implications of telemedicine in primary care- small topic ......honest.

Sitting is the new smoking. Staying sedentary for several hours a day increases your risk of diabetes. So should you stand as a GP?

I remember visiting my GP as a child. Sit in the waiting room normally sullen and low because of yet another episode of tonsillitis.

Then I was called into the doctor’s office. I would enter a room that CQC would now shut down in a heartbeat with mosaic rugs, plush furry chairs, and a beautiful mahogany desk.

And there was the GP….sitting behind his desk. I remember him moving in his chair to get some forms from a cabinet. I remember him asking me to stand as he examined me sitting in his executive chair, and I remember him always sitting behind a desk.

Fast forward to a couple of years ago. I remember finishing work with my shoulders feeling tight, my lower back aching for a stretch, as I scooted in my chair to get a form from my cabinet next to my desk. It was at that point I realised I had been sitting in my chair for over four hours.

I wanted to change this sedentary life. I had a chat with my partners and highlighted I would be changing my room. Shortly after I got a rising desk (Yoyo-90).

I love it. The build quality is excellent with significant heft. The hydraulic risers are simple to clip and push my whole station upwards to allow me to stand. Initially I could only manage an hour or so before my legs tired out and I had to sit again. A further investment in a standing mat helped there. Within a month I was standing while doing all my admin. Then I took the plunge and stood while consulting with patients.

Some will feel less happy about standing while consulting. I know in sharing my story I have heard several criticisms such as:

  • It means you are trying to rush the patient
  • To stand over a patient is to exert a power dynamic in the consultation
  • It means you are trying to hide the screen from the patient

Over the past year, I have not found any of these to be true.

  • In my clinic, patients sit while I stand (see the chairs above).
  • If a patient feels uncomfortable I will sit, however, I have only been asked this twice in the past 18 months.
  • When there is a need for additional empathy, I often sit next to the patient.
  • I actively share my screens when needed with the patients.
  • Patients often comment on the desk, about seeing similar in the media and how positive such changes are.

Sounds encouraging and even our Secretary of State for Health and Social Care – Matt Hancock is very pro-standing desks.

However, it is important to recognise that standing desks on their own is not enough. This is a useful article and another here that comments on the opposing view. This includes complications of standing for long periods (tiredness, varicose veins, musculo-skeletal pain from adjusted positions of screens etc.)

Encouraging our patients to be more active is important. So for Self-care week, I am showing how it works in my practice. Watch the video below and feedback your thoughts on should you stand as a GP?

Hi #eGPlearners

Welcome to the weekly showcase of Technology-enhanced primary & learning resources from eGPlearning.

When should I worry? This is a common question for parents when looking after an unwell child. In primary care, this can often be a challenge for clinicians to manage due to parental anxiety, the expectation of treatments like antibiotics, concerns about antibiotic resistance and growing demand.

A helpful resource which can be used with and for patients is the When should I worry booklet found at www.whenshouldiworry.com.

This short booklet provides clear and helpful advice on managing common conditions that can be self-managed by parents, with advice on self-care options, symptom management and importantly clear guidance on when to see further advice.

The website even offers training on how to use the booklet effectively, and it is available in a variety of languages. Taking it one step further, you may choose to send parents the weblink for the booklet and for the English version: use this helpful case-sensitive shortlink: bit.ly/eGPlearningWSIW

For proactive practices, you could send this as a public information message to all registered parents or share via practice social media channels.

2.25 Andy has had a cold and been on a cruise

2.40 Gandhi has also had a holiday, working on TipThursday especially the Kardia Alivekor episode with a free resource on the episode available here.

3.30 Today we are talking about the upcoming NHS app

We are going to talk about the app. This was inspired by a great article by our friends at Gizmodo. http://www.gizmodo.co.uk/2018/08/exclusive-heres-what-the-new-nhs-app-will-look-like-and-why-it-could-have-been-so-much-worse/

The intentions behind the app are exactly what you might expect: Make it easier for patients to access healthcare services, cut down on administrative burden, and eventually provide a means to connect with other health apps, like Fitbit and Apple’s Health app.

Jeremy Hunt set out ā€œ8 challengesā€ for the app

  • (7.20) Symptom checking and triage (i.e. figuring out if you’re just being a hypochondriac or whether you should be in an ambulance right now)- eConsultation, webGP, babylon AI

HiĀ #eGPlearners

Welcome to the weekly showcase of Technology-enhanced primary & learning resources from eGPlearning.

This week TipThursday covers a resource from the eGPlearning platform –  theĀ eGP DRAMAĀ plan

eGP DRAMA (eGPlearning General Practice Disaster Record And Management Action) plan is a fail-safe document used as an adjunct to you practice business continuity plan.Ā 

It identifies and helps record pertinent practice-related information that if not available at key times can lead to significant stress and impact on the business of running a practice. Particularly with larger scale working, such information needs safeguarding and access at appropriate times.Ā 

To store the document ensure either keeping a hard copy in a safe location or preferably store on an encrypted USB stick or password protected part of the practice intranet.Ā 

This document is free for all eGPlearners via signing up below as part of the eGPlearner induction.

However, for the first week of this video, it is accessible directly via this link:Ā www.egplearning.co.uk/gp-productivity

As always, comment, share and keep eGPlearning.

What is AI? (5.12)

Artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare: is the use of algorithms and software to approximate human cognition in the analysis of complex medical data. Specifically, AI is the ability for computer algorithms to approximate conclusions without direct human input.

When thinking about A lot of people think of Artificial General Intelligence, an artificial agent that thinks like a human, but this is thought to be a long way off.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDrDUmuUBTo

HAL 9000 from 2001 A Space Odysey is a (rather sinister) example of Artificial General Intelligence.

AI is a combination of key technologies…

Key terms, definitions and technologies:

The 4th industrial revolution

Deep learning, algorithms, fast processing, storage capacity and ability to collect large amounts of data are the foundations of the 4th industrial revolution - AI.

Logic and rules based AI…

  • ā€œTop down approachā€- system designers provide the rules for computer to follow
  • Simpler than more modern approaches, but this can be very powerful
  • Examples include: Automatic tax return software, Qrisk, FeverPain, FRAX (7.16)
  • Already used for prescription safety like OptimizeRX (7.30) and advice, flagging investigation results
  • Could be useful for automating simple tasks like processing some blood results

Pattern based AI...
