3.3.6.1 General Practices and GP Consortia
The formation of the GP consortia is currently underway as at February 2011, and the
final GP consortium or consortia within the Hull area has not been agreed. It is possible
that there will be one GP consortium in the Hull area covering the GP practices that are
currently within Hull. However, this may not be the case, and it is possible that there
could be more than one consortium in Hull, or one consortium that also covers some
practices within East Riding of Yorkshire. Therefore, it is not possible, at this time, to
provide any information in relation to the local GP consortia.
3.3.6.2 Outcome Measures, Performance Targets and Progress Towards Targets
In the two years prior to May 1010, substantial work was undertaken in Hull developing
the World Class Commissioning (WCC) Strategy, and it included a number of targets for
improving health. Also prior to the change in Government (May 2010), in partnership
with the local authority, there were also a number of targets from the Local Area
Agreement (and Local Area Agreement 2) through the Health and Wellbeing Strategic
Delivery Partnership. In Release 2 of the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment Foundation
Profile, progress towards these targets was discussed. There were also a number of
Vital Signs targets. However, with the major reorganisations currently underway, it is
not clear what outcome measures will be retained and which, if any, indicators will
become new outcome measures and what the targets will be set at locally. The
proposals for new public health outcomes are currently (as at February 2011), under
consultation (Department of Health 2010).
In the list of potential public health outcomes are a number of indicators or similar
indicators which existed previously or were local measures including:
All age all cause mortality
Under 75 circulatory disease mortality
Under 75 cancer mortality
Differences in life expectancy between communities
Suicide and undetermined injury mortality
Breastfeeding at 6-8 weeks
Infant mortality rate
Incidence of low birth weight of term babies
Percentage of reception year and year 6 children who are obese
Child immunisation uptake rates
Hospital admissions for alcohol-related harm
Patients with diabetes HbA1c 7.0 or less measured in the last 15 months
Hospital admissions caused by unintentional or deliberate injuries to children and
young people
Cancer screening uptake rates
Chlamydia screening uptake rates
Access to genito-urinary medicine clinics
