Operose “partnership” to operate AT Medics

1% Pay Rise for NHS Staff

Operose - large private company

Now operate 58 practices, nearly 1% GP practices (6,658), >500,000p

 

Worries that GP is being parceled up and sold off to private business, foreign, American ones at that…

 

  • Why is this controversial?
  • Who are the players?
  • Do people understand GP ownership structures?
  • Does it matter? Should we worry?

AT Medics

  • Largest Group of GP practices in London, 37 practices, 49 sites, 120,000p
  •  
  • Innovative software and programmes - medic assistant

Operose Health

  • Owned by Centene
  • American
  • $111B Revenue 
  • NHS Budget £150B
  • Centene in Andaluz - Ribera Salud the template for ICS working
  • Medicaid and population health in the US, 25m Americans

 

  • My experience
  • Good experience of working with PCN practices
  • Good people

 

  • Nationally assembling a strong team 
  • CMO - Nick Harding OBE / Modality 

 

Does it Matter?

  • Londonwide LMC (Chief Exec Dr Lisa Rothwell) - Strong tradition of GP Practices being led by GPs and teams who live locally and work as part of the frontline workforce.

 

  • On the other hand - Investment - Efficiencies

 

  • increased competition to the market to improve quality for patients and get better deal for tax payer? 

 

  • NHS sets the price and performance expectations in the contract?

 

Understanding ownership of general practices - PArtnerships - need to change?

 

NSH 1% payrise 

 

Is it right or not?

Will you be clapping for carers or not?
