Description

Objectives of the programme The Smart City Region (SCR) is the pioneering Levelling-Up programme to scale-up wellness and productivity benefits from community diagnostics, remote monitoring, preventative healthcare, and exemplar hospital (through connectivity and IoT) across the West Midlands working in partnership with NHS and Local Authorities, and following successful trials led by WM5G and others in the region. For remote monitoring that means supporting up to 5,000 adults either over the age of 65 or with long-term conditions to live at home for longer and support their independence utilising sensor-based remote monitoring / virtual care capabilities to support activities like virtual wards, care homes and at home solutions that are affordable and sustainable going forward. For community diagnostics that means supporting up to 2,000 patients receive faster diagnoses with an initial focus on bowel cancer delivered in community and home settings taking advantage of advanced connectivity. 2. Scope of this work This work will build on the phase one of the SCR benefits programme which saw the production of a benefit management framework, an evaluation and economics baseline for contribution in kind (CIK) and benefits maps. Phase 2 of this work will be to further develop this work to ensure that the SCR Programmes can demonstrate both value for money and realise benefits for the health and social care community. The two key programmes for this work will be the: • Colon Capsule Endoscopy service and • Virtual care There will be a need to test the existing benefits framework including the benefits map and benefits register with stakeholder groups to establish a set of measurable benefits to be baselined and collected over the rollout of the two programmes. The successful organisation will need to use the outputs of this testing to analysis of the patient journeys/ process maps, evaluate the findings and update the benefits framework as required. The final outputs will then need to be socialised and launched with the key stakeholders underpinned by a long-term plan to embed the benefits programme in both WM5G and the NHS stakeholders. This work will be run alongside staff from ICB organisations or the organisations they have contracted and commissioned to deliver care and therefore will need to engage with them throughout. It is essential that the successful organisation can demonstrate the following: • NHS experience with programme management • Evidential experience of NHS Benefits realisation framework • Evidential experience of delivering successful programmes across multi-agencies including health and social care
