Impact of "best" more streamlined pathways in the 4 specs in national

To be allocated equally over Ophthalmology, ENT, Urology and T&O
Outpatient pathways - reduced follow up rate 200 200
Change in practice/culture. Target based on a 4% reduction in the average follow rate @ c £15 per follow up avoided. This equates to
moving around 1/2 of the way to UQ performance
Proportionate to distance from UQ performance
Minor procedures moved to outpatient or
other non theatre settings tba tba 0
Hysteroscopies and flexible cystoscopies at PCH key areas.
Staffing required lower in outpatient settings gives cost savings for each session moved. Also cases/session can be greater in alternative setting. Opportunity

Reduced waste from cancellations. Moving to 100% e referral and
electronic communication of outpatient letters. Bigger opportunity in subsequent years

Resources released in directorate admin from
records centralisation 28 172 200
Direct impact of reduced notes required to be pulled by directorates (estimated value of
redirected work = c £300k pa). Bigger opportunity in later years,
including from digitisation
Pro rata to medical records estimates of cost of notes pulling avoided by centralised
model
Unscheduled care, frailty and long term conditions
Improved management of elective and
non-elective patient flow enabling reduced beds 1000 1000
Multiple enablers for flow improvement including IARS, acute
medicine, increased day surgery rates, and others. Total improvement assumed is 50 bed
equivalent out of a total opportunity of c 150 bed equivalents. 25 of these beds assumed to be retained to improve USC and planned care performance and 25 beds released for savings, equating the £1m cost reduction opportunity. These assumption will
be tested through the bed modelling commission currently
underway.
