patient’s
perspective
Effectiveness
“Will it do me any
good?”

10. Parity :
NHS Mandate: what does it mean in practice
• I was struck the other day when I saw a patient - who has
From awaiting for CBT.GP………………… been go on sick
London He is depressed and was just told to off work for
3 months
leave- no medication, just a referral for CBT in the distant future.
• When I saw him , what upset me most was that if he had broken his leg, he
would have been treated asap, given rehab, told to go to work on crutches
and would not have just been abandoned.
• I want to make it impossible for mental health problems to be treated as
second class illnesses - with patients with treatable conditions languishing
on waiting lists or worst still with no treatment at all
Clare Gerrada
GPs are trying to do everything for everyone, too much of 21st Century care
is being provided through 19th century organisational models………
Professor Michael Porter is a world authority on strategy in business, & has spent the past decade
working in healthcare systems in dozens of countries.

12. successful outcome. The second point is the level of cost-effectiveness as measured by cost
per QALY. This involves two further factors. First there is the severity of the condition which
is averted, and second the cost per case treated. The concept of severity used by NICE is that
each medical condition involves a reduction in the quality of life, and a successful treatment
thus increases the number of Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs). The cost per QALY is
then the (inverse) measure of the cost-effectiveness of the treatment. The informal cut-off
Mental health has among the most clinically and cost
effective treatments of any sector
but access is low and a post code lottery

13. What are the priorities & progress
• No health without mental health’ national strategy
• NHS Mandate & Suicide prevention strategy
• Emerging SCN priorities across the country
• AHSNs
• LETBs
• New funding streams

14. Emerging System priorities
..a system based on value, equalities & shared learning
1. CCG: building capacity and capability in mental health
leadership
2. Primary care mental health
3. Care of people with psychosis : ‘industrializing’ improvement
4. The acute care pathway and suicide prevention
5. Integrated physical & mental health care pathways
6. Mental health intelligence informatics network programme
• new model of information led commissioning & integrated provision
• Whole pathway commissioning of Tiers 1-4
Underpinning Value based commissioning and care
• Outcome measurement
• Service specifications aligned to PbR and Choice
• Reducing burden to free up time to care

15. CCG GP Mental health leadership programme
Knowledge based leadership for high impact and improving
outcomes ….……a new model of leadership
Personal leadership development
Mental health Informatics competency
Expert ‘what good looks like’
immersion week
Commissioning Information and best
practice

16. The national care pathways priorities
What do we want to commission with partners
Prevention &
health promotion
Early
identification &
early
intervention
Timely Access to
services offering
choice, quality
outcome focus
Care at home or
in the least
restrictive
settings,
Crisis response
that is easy to
access & expert
Parity for people with physical & mental health
Integrated physical & mental health & social care
Where every contact is a kind enabling, coaching experience

17. Step 1: Information for Commissioning value based care pathways
we have commissioned unique whole care pathway health & social care information
for every CCG
In this CCG/ borough, what are the social determinants of mental ill
health
How common are mental health conditions in this area
What are the high risk groups to target for risk stratification and
prevention
What % age of people with these conditions are GP QOF identified
( and coded)
What funding is spent on mental health in primary care, social care
and specialist mental health hospital beds & community services
What evidence based services are available in this borough
Are standards of services meeting NICE
NCB, QOF, COF, CQC, Monitor, Outcomes domains, Operating
framework, PbR
What are the key high risk prevention & top 10% QIPP opportunities

18. Clinical and economic best commissioning tools
What are the top 4 service ‘Best buys’
Model service specification examples
Economic modelling tools to design and reengineer effective
models for local needs
The evaluation and shared learning indicators
CCG MH shared learning & provision network
Expert clinical reviewers & implementers

19. 2. Primary mental health care in England
internationally:
GP roles
they are usingIndividualthinking around the many roles of
systems clinician
GPs
Primary care multi disciplinary team
Leadership & organization of the practice
GP as community leader & prevention
GP as Commissioner

20. International learning : Primary care mental health service
organization: a ‘stratification’ approach & federated models
e.g. ‘ (Kaeser, Scandanavia, US Vets
Primary care service
organization
Demand management : reduce employment and school
and community causes
Prevention targeting of High risk groups
Self assessment & self management
Mild Common conditions
Moderate primary care repeat attenders & LTCs
Long term severe mental illness

21. An example of a federated model
Hungary Depression & suicide reduction Training, systems redesign, whole
team sustainable approach Szanto et al ( 2007
Training for 28 GPs serving 73,000 people.
5 year Depression-management educational program for GPs
In addition to training individuals, services were reorganised and expertise
commissioned to support primary care in a sustainable way.
Practice nurses were also trained
A Depression Treatment Clinic & psychiatrist telephone consultation service was
established.
Conclusion: GP-based intervention produced a greater decline in suicide rates cf
with the county & national rates..
Key conclusion was that additional service reorganisation such as depression case
managers should be tried.
The importance of alcoholism in local suicide was unanticipated and not addressed

22. Shared whole pathway learning
GP Master class series
Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust runs a
series of free evening masterclasses
on mental health and learning
disability issues for primary care
professionals.
The aim of the series is to:
• Provide GPs with updates on the
current evidence-based
treatments for common mental
health conditions
• Share information on new
assessment tools
• Share best practice care
pathways
• Topics have included
depression, dementia & child &
adolescent mental health issues.

23. AHSNs working with SCNs and LETbs
UCLP practice nurse master classes
• 2. 5 hour Masterclass for practice nurses
• Masterclass developed by a practice nurse mental health
expert with RMNs
• Train the trainer model : 1 specialist MH nurse trainer per
CCG
• 2.5 hour master classes in each `CCG area for 20 PNs
• 800/1400 London practice nurses trained in 6 months
• New modules in depression, suicide prevention, planned

25. 5. Integrated physical and mental health care Long term conditions
Mental health raises costs in all sectors
Chris Naylor, Kings fund
• Overall, international research finds
180%
that co-morbid MH problems are
increase in service costs per
patient
(after controlling for severity of
physical illness)
• Between 12% and 18% of all
expenditure on long-term conditions

29. Many of the outcomes we achieve for people
with schizophrenia and psychosis are
unacceptable
• Excess mortality – people dying 15-20 years earlier.
• Poor social outcomes – only 8% in employment.
• Overrepresentation of people with schizophrenia/psychosis in
prison or amongst homeless population.
• Very high levels of stigma and misunderstanding.
• Cost to society of £11.8 billion.

30. Value based Integrated care pathways design:
commissioning for 60% volume, 60% spend; top 10%
Depression: is the most common MH condition in PC, acute, MHT, addictions, adolescents , veterans
• 30-50% of the daily work of GPs is MH related, especially depression
• Post graduate training for GPs, PNs, HVs, PC has been less available and tailored to PC mental health
• 78% of people who commit suicides have seen their GP in the month before the suicide
• Long term conditions: 70-80% of all healthcare & depression is the common comorbidity in 25-40%
• Untreated depression in COPD, CHD, cancer, stroke, diabetes, means patients die early & cost more
• 60-90% of those who misuse alcohol and drugs have depression
• Children and young people can be helped to develop resilience against depression
• Transport hub suicides are high in London and can be prevented
• RCGP & AHSCs are keen to develop new population & pathway based approaches to depression in all
sectors
The young people with psychosis & complex needs in high cost top 10% tier
• 95% patients are treated in the community, but 60% spend is on beds
• The Top 10% patients who account for 50-60% spend are not well recognized,
helped by caseload zoning and risk stratification
• Our detention rates are rising year on year despite CTOs
• 70-80% of those in MSUs and LSUs are young black men with long LOS
• Substance misuse is a very common comorbidity which triggers 60% high risk events e.g.
suicide , homicide, partner impact, but the commissioning & provision are not understood

31. 3. The care of people with psychosis
• In 2012, the National schizophrenia Commission & National Audit of Schizophrenia
found:
• examples of good practice
• Wide variation in standard
• National data shows changes away from demonstrated models of evidence based care
• The need to ‘industrialise improvement in 5 core areas of care:
• Physical health
• Safe optimised medicines
• Psychological therapy
• Inpatient care
• Care plans that are personalized, empowering

effective programmes for people with physical
illnesses in acute trust, primary care settings

34. Prevention and Early intervention (Knapp et al, 2011)
highly effective treatments: major economic benefit
For every one pound spent the savings are:
Parenting interventions for families with conduct disorder : £8
Early diagnosis and treatment of depression at work: £5 in year 1
Early intervention of psychosis £18 in year 1
Screening & brief interventions in primary care for alcohol misuse £12 Yr 1
Employment support for those recovering from mental illness: Individual
Placement Support for people with severe mental illness results in annual savings of
£6,000 per client (Burns et al, 2009)
Housing support services for men with enduring mental illness: annual savings:
£11,000–£20,000 per client (CSED, 2010).

35. Proportion in UK with mental disorder receiving any
intervention (Green et al, 2005; McManus et al, 2009)
• 28% of parents of children with conduct disorder
• 24% of adults with common mental disorder
• 28% of adults screening positive for PTSD
• 81% of adults with probable psychosis received some form of treatment
compared to 85% in 2000.
• 65% of adults with ‘psychotic disorder’ in past year
• 14% of adults dependent on alcohol
• 14% of adults dependent on cannabis only
• 36% of adults dependent on other drugs
• Less than 10% of older people with depression receive adequate treatment
