Description

The National strategy of providing care closer to home has led the commissioners to transfer services where appropriate out of secondary to primary care settings.

In the case of minor surgery, the service is commissioned in such a way as to achieve three key goals :- - Ensuring equality of access so that Leeds patients who are registered with general practices who do not participate in the minor surgery DES, still have access to those services through referral to a community minor surgery provider of their choice - Ensuring that lower complexity minor surgery cases can be managed through referral to a community minor surgery provider of their choice, rather than to a hospital service - Enable other community services to access treatments that would otherwise be delivered by a hospital provider

Commissioners expect services to be delivered in line with the latest evidence base and providers will be required to ensure services meet all national regulatory requirements.

Local defined outcomes

a) Within 2 weeks of the referral being received, patients will have been contacted with the offer of an appointment b) The appointment for patient's treatment to take place must be within 6 weeks of the date of referral. (The patient may however choose to delay this appointment beyond the six weeks if they so choose)

Aims and objectives of service

The services will: - Ensure equitable, timely, high quality and appropriate access - Ensure patients are seen and treated in a safe environment, appropriate to their care needs - Provide a streamlined patient referral process
