ORGANISATIONAL MODEL:Networked Polyclinic model
Example of the hub and spoke model in Leyton/Leytonstone
![Page 8: Developing polyclinics in Waltham Forest](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081514/557d0e38d8b42a8c2f8b5243/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Network Agreement:
• This outlines the principles and rules by which the network will function
• Patients should be referred to polyclinic services where clinically appropriate, in line with patient pathways unless the patient has requested to go elsewhere.
• Patients may be referred to any of the polyclinics
• Practices in the hub must not proactively seek to encourage patients registered with the spokes to switch registration.

ORGANISATIONAL MODEL:Stakeholder Engagement
GP and Stakeholder engagement – six
workshops held so far
Three Public events were held in July
![Page 10: Developing polyclinics in Waltham Forest](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081514/557d0e38d8b42a8c2f8b5243/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
GP & Stakeholder Event:
Key Concerns:• The hub will pull patients from the spokes
• Anxiety around the possibility of the private sector managing GPLHC
Services GPs would like to see in a polyclinic:
1. Diagnostics
2. Health Promotion
Health Visiting
3. Out-Patient Services
Counselling

Polyclinic Tender Process:Bidders to choose the location
• Bidders can choose from a number of potential locations indentified by the PCT
• There are nine options in total
ADVANTAGES:• Sensitivity of where the polyclinics will be located• Decisions will be made as part of the evaluation of the Tender
DISADVANTAGES:• Planning can be made difficult by not knowing the location of the clinics until the outcome of the tender is known
