Results updated 2 Dec 2019
This consultation is now closed.
Overview
As Chair of the Internal Medicine Programme of Care (PoC) I have had the privilege of working with a number of extremely able and experienced colleagues from a wide range of disciplines and feeding their views into the Specialised Commissioning Clinical Assurance Group (
As with the other PoCs, some of the CRGs represent disciplines that are well established within existing specialised commissioning frameworks, while others - such as my HepatoPancreaticoBiliary(HPB)
I totally concur with my co-PoC Chairs, that this has been an extremely constructive and productive process. We have developed a comprehensive national set of service specifications, which when enacted should lead to uniform high levels of care across England in the delivery of specialised services under the NHS CB.
Professor Graeme Poston
Chair, NHS Specialised Commissioning Internal Medicine Clinical Reference Groups
Why your views matter
A range of service specifications and clinical policies for specialised services commissioning have been developed by Clinical Reference Groups (CRGs).
There has already been extensive engagement on these new national specifications and policies, as they have been developed with the support and input of lead clinicians and patient and public representatives. This approach has helped ensure that the views of key stakeholders have informed and influenced the policies and specifications.
We now want to test them further with more stakeholders to ensure all needs and considerations have been taken into account.
