Background

A Service Supplementary Care Standard is being introduced to describe the Community Pharmacy Clinical Services service, including the associated features and operating capabilities.

Introduction to

...

Supplementary Care Standards

A new class of Standard is being introduced into the Digital Services for Integrated Care (DSIC) environment; the Service Supplementary Care Standard.

What is a

...

Supplementary Care Standard?

A Service Standard is a Supplementary Care Standard describes the DSIC representation of the required components of a discretely delivered functional, technical and/or operating conditions required to deliver a specific service within a health and care setting, that can:

  • Map to services that might be directly commissioned from providers (such as the Community Pharmacy Clinical Services which are part of the Community Pharmacy Commissioning Framework).

  • Be discretely identified within a commissioning contract, such as Enhanced Access, Anticipatory Care, Enhanced Health in Care Homes etc., which are all newly specified services within the NHS England Network Contract DES - the Primary Care Network (PCN) contract for GPs.

  • Be a new controlled service operating within a domain (such as Community Services Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) Prescribing) which the Authority is seeking to roll out and make available to users.

A Service Supplementary Care Standard operates within DSIC in the same manner that any other Standard operates under the Agreement in relation to Change Management, the Roadmap, Assurance etc.

Examples:

  • Community Pharmacy Consultations Supplementary Care Standard

  • DES Enhanced Access Supplementary Care Standard

  • DES BI Tools Supplementary Care Standard

What is a

...

Supplementary Care Standard used for?

The purpose of a Service Supplementary Care Standard is to describe a domain specific service, feature or operating capability to a customer, which they can use to confirm the existence of the service feature or operating capability and its valid operation within a given application.The Service

  • It allows us to group requirements that cover multiple Capabilities when there isn’t a Procurement Product

  • It’s used to define requirements for a specific service rather than just a Capability or whole Solution, meaning we can focus more on mandatory requirements and assurance ask is potentially smaller

The Supplementary Care Standard is also used for identifying and managing change within the whole service as it can be amended via the Roadmap as services are updated. The Roadmap can also be used to incentivise delivery of the Standard or changes to the Standard via a Roadmap Award.

...

Supplementary Care Standard Structure

A Service Supplementary Care Standard follows similar principles to Capabilities and Standards and consists of:

  • Epic level User Stories (either directly or through the inclusion of one or more Capabilities).

  • Additional Implementation Details associated with some Epics which mandate related:

    • Interoperability Standards.

    • Data Standards.

    • Non-Functionals specific to the implementation of the Epic.

  • Secondary Artefacts (these are Non-Functionals derived from the DSIC Overarching Standards, which are overarching for the Service Supplementary Care Standard and are necessary for the safe and effective operation of the service as a whole).

Outline Plan

The Service Supplementary Care Standard; including all Capabilities, Epics, Interoperability Standards and Secondary Artefacts, will be developed further as requirements are finalised.

The following Epics have associated dates attached by which Suppliers must be compliant:

  • CPC015 - manage Community Pharmacy Consultation information Information for Patients

    • 12/01/2024

  • CPC010 - access launch Patient Group Directions (PGDPGDs) for Community Pharmacy Consultations

    Assurance Approach

    In order to achieve assured status against a Service Supplementary Care Standard a Supplier must go through an assurance process which includes:

    ...

    The assurance undertaken for a Service Supplementary Care Standard is confined to elements of the software which are concerned with the service in question. Therefore the presence of a Service Supplementary Care Standard does not necessarily mean that assurance of a whole Supplier Solution has occurred under the DSIC, unless that is stated elsewhere.
