4. Commissioning Mental Health Services (themeeting was joined by Julie Gaze and Colleaguesfrom Surrey and Borders)
We were given an update on the Trustsconsultation on inpatient provision.There was a 73% approval for the three-centre option based on Chertsey,Guildford and Redhill. All inpatientservices (including EMHS) will be
delivered from these sites and thefacilities at Epsom will eventually beclosed. The group continued withreservations but had to accept theposition. The focus now had to be indeveloping community services and tothis end we will set up a liaison groupstarting with representation on the MSCGBoard (there will also need to be
representation at Locality level). Julie

5. Community Services
SG was able to report that the proposalshad been supported by the PCT andfunding had been found to allow IHP to
be involved in developing a businessplan. CSH were happy to support thiswork. The work should include the use ofCommunity Hospital Beds (currently theyhave been reduced as a cost savingexercise)
6. Medicines Management
SP and AP had been working jointlyaround the area of Medicine Use Reviews(MUR). These are part of the newPharmacy Contract although not allpharmacies are accredited to providethem. One suggestion was that GPs couldadd a further tick box to the scriptaltering the Pharmacist that a MUR wouldbe indicated. Other proposals were made
but one obvious difficulty would be knowwhich pharmacies were able to carry themout. There was also a feeling that thescheme would not be totally beneficialuntil home visits were included. Workwill continue on this.
HL reported some concern around privacyin Pharmacies although no pharmacy
should be approved until; they could

7. Patient Representation
HL reminded the Group of the agreedprocess for patient participation (arequirement of the PBC IncentiveScheme). There had been only limitedprogress and as yet only two practiceshad shown progress in establishing
group/individuals that HL could workwith. She suggested that the practicemanager of one of the practices isinvited to a group meeting to discusshow to go about it.
8. Update on MSCG plans
The Group noted with dismay the actionof the PCT in withdrawing funds to

support the Managed Care Project. Allfelt that it would be foolish to notcontinue with the project if at allpossible using PBC Incentive Scheme
monies alone. We were hopeful that therewere sufficient funds in the ManagementAllowance to allow this (CB reportedthat he had secured current funding upto 31st December) This money is notavailable for distribution to practicesand would be returned to the PCT if notspent.
It was agreed that a small group wouldbe convened by AR and including RB, TRand IHP, to see what can be achieved toallow IHP to continue to manage theproject.
The remainder of the Managed Care Reportwas given in Part 2 of the agenda.
9. AOB
EDICS/MEDLinks had reviewed theirposition and now wished to proceed witha joint meeting to look at areas of co-operation. It was suggested that 4members of each group should attend aninitial meeting on 22nd December. TheMSCG members would be TR, SG, MJ and SW.
The Chair was directed by the Group toexpress their frustration to KarenParsons on the failure to have the newEDICS contract signed.
