They may deliver a clinical service beyond the normal scope of general practice, undertake advanced procedures, or develop services. They will work as partners in a managed service not under direct supervision, keeping within their competencies. They do not offer a full consultant service and will not replace consultants or interfere with access to consultants by local general practitioners.” PwSI Work Completed • 1250 GPwSI • Frameworks • ‘Step by step’ advice document for PCT • NwSI • National Development Group Initial Frameworks • ENT • Coronary Heart Disease • Echocardiography • Drug misuse http://www.doh.gov.uk/pricare/gpspecialinterests Modernising the Primary Care Workforce - ENT services provided by GPsWI • 30-40% of ENT patients can be seen by a GPwSI. • Up to 20% of ENT patients seen by GPwSI are referred onwards to a consultant or surgical waiting list. • DNA rates for GPwSI clinics are typically 1-2%. • One GPwSI, holding a weekly clinic, can manage the relevant ENT workload generated by a population of 75,000. • An established GPwSI, holding a weekly clinic, can perform 500 consultations per annum. 2003 frameworks produced • • • • • • • Child protection Dermatology Drug misuse(revised) Emergency care Epilepsy Headaches Palliative care • • • • • • Respiratory medicine Mental health Sexual health Diabetes Care of older people Musculo-skeletal conditions(?soon) Future Frameworks • • • • Public Health CAMH Genetics ?Pain http://www.doh.gov.uk/pricare/gpspecialinterests Work in Progress • • • • • • • AHPwSI ?
