Twitter feed highlights
Some highlights from the Twitter feed from external parties, in reverse chronological order. Taken from the Leading Clinical Commissioning… what’s possible? event (http://benpct.nhs.uk/lcc2010) from NHS Birmingham East and North on 20 and 21 July 2010.
- @CormackCarr @NHSBEN vol orgs can be a multiple help: co-design & delivery of services *and* advocate for patients in NHS/patient conversation #lcc2010
- @amcunningham @NHSBEN #lcc2010 managing your life might be easier if you have a reasonable income #lcc2010
- @NHSFollower Isn’t it just replicating lots of little PCTs? #lcc2010
- @CormackCarr Must now ensure supported & ongoing dialogue between NHS/GPs/vol & community groups in order to make best use of local intelligence #lcc2010
- @NHSFollower How can you design local services when patients can register with any GP? #lcc2010
- @CormackCarr Back from quality discussions at @NHSBEN Commissioning event #lcc2010 – great to see recognition of key role of 3rd sector across the piece
- @zebslc #lcc2010 will be interesting to see how IT is utilised to improve commissioning. Big IT companies rubbing hands together over fat contracts
- @andrewspong @NHSBEN It’s great to see Twitterfall blazing away in the background, but: are delegates bemused by this? How many are Twtr users? #lcc2010
- @andrewspong #lcc2010 Great to see you’ve given such prominence to Twitter at the event. It really helps bring those outside the room inside #hcsmeu
- @Adencambs adrian is participating in a system change event with BENpct and can be followed at NHSBEN #lcc2010
- @PhilCoyne Lots of interesting conversations here at #lcc2010, even from where I’m sitting in the corner
- @dazwright Can the group provide an estimate of how long it will take before the management savings exceed the costs of change? #lcc2010
- @dazwright How will we get GP consortia to buy into sufficiently robust partnership arrangements to mitigate potential “post code” lotteries? #lcc2010
- @dazwright @NHSBEN #lcc2010 More importantly than GPs developing skills how do we ensure those who currently have the skills are not lost to the system
- @zebslc #lcc2010 Will gps keep anything not spent in budget & how do you make sure needed referrals still happen with obvious conflict of interest?

PCTs were told that they had to separate provider & commiss services because of the conflict of interest. What makes GPs different? #lcc2010
Will there be a cap on what consortia can pay themselves?#lcc2010
Can we forget the merger now?
