An introduction to the NHS Business Services Authority

This webinar is a follow up to the webinars on NHS charities held in May and September 2020 - it will focus on the issues that charities need to consider ahead of preparing their 2020/21 trustee annual report and accounts.
2020/21 will be very different to previous years – accountants will need to consider recognition of donations in kind and grants from the NHS Charities Together emergency appeal, possible changes in charitable objectives and disclosure of new areas of expenditure as well as wider issues such as tax treatment of benefits in kind.

There is much evidence to support the view that better engagement with employees enables both employees and organisations to function at their best. In the NHS there is clear evidence that higher levels of staff engagement lead to increased patient satisfaction and lower levels of mortality.

During this webinar, Brian will explore the wider benefits of employee engagement and look at some useful tools and techniques for helping us become more effective as a manager.

We will look at some resources available to help us all become more effective as managers and examples of good employee engagement

2020/21 is a year unlike any other as a result of Covid-19 and the impact it has had on NHS bodies – not just operationally but financially. ‘Usual’ judgments and estimates will need to be revisited, changes to policy have to be reflected in the accounts and finance teams and auditors will be working remotely again.
This webinar will provide an auditor’s view on the key issues that NHS bodies need to consider as they prepare their annual report and accounts.

While value-based healthcare and outcomes-based contracts are much talked about, it can be challenging to understand how this can be translated into results.

In this webinar University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust will describe how they improved outcomes and reduced costs, through a risk-sharing agreement with Medtronic.

Infection is a serious complication of cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIED) and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and costs to the health service. Medtronic’s TYRXTM is a bioabsorbable envelope designed to stabilise a CIED implanted in patients and prevent an infection through sustained release of antibiotics. Use of TYRX™ has been shown to reduce CIED infections by 40% and pocket infections by 61% within 12 months.

A TYRX value-based healthcare risk share programme is currently operational across NHS England, whereby if a patient who has a CIED implanted using TYRX presents with a CIED infection within 12 months of the procedure, Medtronic will provide a full replacement CIED system and TYRX envelope free of charge. This partnership supports a shift towards payment for patient outcomes.

The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) is an arm’s length body of the Department of Health and Social Care. The NHS spends c£70bn annually through NHSBSA platforms and services, delivering payments to pharmacists and dentists, help for patients with UK and overseas health costs, NHS Jobs, NHS Electronic Staff Record and NHS Pensions.

This webinar will introduce the NHSBSA, show how its platforms, services and tools can help the NHS to deliver better quality, efficiency and value. It will describe how the organisation from its genesis has delivered national complex business processes efficiently and now uses data and its understanding of the system to provide valuable insights for the NHS.

Managing projects is part of everyday life for managers and all of us will be involved in projects in one form or another.

During this webinar, Brian will explore how to get started with a project, aspects of project planning and look at some useful tools and techniques for helping us to deliver successful projects.

We will explore examples of where project management has worked well (and also less well) and look at a number of key success factors that combine to give a high probability of project success.

The trade deal agreed between the UK and the EU at the 11th hour ended some uncertainty around future trading arrangements and avoided the imposition of new tariffs. But it still means increased red tape for companies moving products in and out of the country. And the deal also leaves the NHS facing specific challenges and uncertainties. Key among these is the supply and costs of medicines, arguably brought into immediate sharp focus by the importance of maintaining consistent supplies of Covid-19 vaccine over the coming months. And, with significant shortages of NHS and social care staff even before the pandemic, the end of free movement of labour seems unlikely to help address staffing pressures. Mark Dayan, Brexit programme lead at the Nuffield Trust, explores the possible short and medium term impacts of Brexit on health in the UK.

The NHS Long Term Plan put primary care at the centre of the vision for the next decade of the NHS in England. Rather than examining the primary care reforms themselves, this webinar will provide an honest snapshot of primary care during 2020. How one GP federation and local primary care networks have responded to the requirements of the reforms – for example, providing new services and developing the workforce. The webinar will also examine the role the GP federation played and continues to play in coping with the COVID-19 pandemic as the year unfolded

Prior to Covid-19 the financial challenges facing the NHS were well documented. The NHS long-term plan set out proposals to transform the way that the NHS works in order to meet these challenges which are the result, in part, of increasing patient demand as well as workforce pressures. Meeting the challenge of the NHS long term plan continues alongside managing the on-going impact of Covid-19.

During this webinar we discuss the research we have been undertaking in partnership with the HFMA into how technology leaders are using the power of intelligent automation to tackle these issues.
