In 2015/16 NCL CCGs collaborated to commission a combined GP out-of-hours (OOH) and NHS 111 service across NCL. The contract was set against a local specification that patients helped to develop but, since 2018, the service model has evolved in order to meet demand and to align with national requirements. The aim of the new NHS 111 IUC model across NCL is to be in line with national guidance and standards, with residents receiving high quality complete episodes of care with an outcome such as, but not limited to:- • Advice and self care • A face-to-face or virtual appointment for further assessment in a primary or urgent or emergency care setting • Repeat prescriptions. • A multi-provider system working together to ensure patients get the right care, in the right place, at the right time • Broader use of clinical skills within the 'consult and complete' model • Current key performance indicators maintained and improved • Affordable and sustainable 111 IUC model. Re-procuring the NHS 111 IUC service provides an opportunity to create a more sustainable model for integrated urgent care effective from October 2023.
