No Item Action 1 Apologies & Welcome Andy McAlavey opened the meeting no apologies were received. 2 Action Tracker and Minutes of previous meeting: The minutes of the meeting held on 11 th June were agreed as an accurate record. All actions completed with the exception of : Prepare financial summary of ongoing projects Gareth to bring to next meeting Request for investment into CWP OPHS ICT infrastructure: Agreed due at next CDC for ratification Fiona please can you chase Gareth for the financial summary sufficiently ahead of the next meeting GJ GJ 3 Funding Update : Gareth reported that all parties had previously agreed in principle to funding a share of the costs of the new shared record. A detailed costing plan has been produced and was considered at the June meeting of the Shared Health Record Project board. With the exception of Cheshire West and Cheshire LA and Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology all parties have now formally agreed to the proposed funding shares for the next 3 year period. Dermot agreed to seek final agreement from the local authority (ACTION). Tracey suggested that the costing model will need to be flexible as some of the support costs are, as yet, uncertain. This concern was noted. DL LM Laura agreed to ask Huw Charles Jones to also raise the issue of CWAC s financial commitment with Brenda Dowding as Chair of the Health and Wellbeing Board Update from Shared Care Record Programme Board : Shared care record meeting to follow this one. John Glover reported that he is happy with where the project is currently. Pilots are planned for end of July possibly August - some delay due to decisions with regard to Graphnet Version 3 still awaited. Also summer holidays may interrupt flow of work. Privacy Impact Assessment: Data sharing agreement has been circulated and signed and finalised by all except 2 and discussions are ongoing re information governance. Suzanne Crutchley has been involved as the CCG Information Governance link and raised the concern regarding the inclusion of data for those outside West Cheshire CCG. This issue has been discussed at length within and between organisations It was noted that CSU provide IG advice to the CCG but ultimately it is the CCG who makes decisions. John updated the group on the discussions he had been having with CCO regarding the above issue and at the moment CCO have chosen to limit the data extraction to West Cheshire patients but will review this position in 3 months time. It was noted that a meeting is being scheduled to bring together organisations Caldicott Guardians and IG leads. Minutes of Governing Body Sub-Committees 3
No Item Action 5. Update on implementation of health economy wide wifi : Following the initial meeting held to discuss this, John Glover has commissioned an external piece of work to review the issues and report back. John has not had the final version of this report and when chased, the company who did the work informed John this was not complete due to illness. John will circulate the report as soon as it is available. JG 6. Update on development of solutions subgroup: Laura informed the group that Paul Hackett will be working for the CCG for the next 6 months to support the organisation s ICT development as well as supporting the CCG in its system wide ICT development. As part of this, Laura expects Paul to take on the establishment of the solutions subgroup. The agenda for the solutions subgroup will be driven by our shared strategy which Paul will also be completing. The Solutions subgroup will report to the IT Strategy Group. The first priority will be taking forward the integrated wifi but Laura hoped the group would also be able to support the development of the use of technology to support self-care (including assessing existing pilots). 7. Roll out of Summary Care Record in Community Pharmacy: Kerry reported that interest has been registered on behalf of four CCGs (West Cheshire, East Cheshire, South Cheshire and Vale Royal ) by NHS England, see attached document. She is awaiting further information and will forward to the group when available. It is intended patients will be automatically opted in with an opt out choice. KW 8. Integrated teams roll out ICT issues: DL explained that there were a number of issues involved here such as unsuitable accommodation, lack of planning around office space and need for mobile working increasing. However, on a positive note, issues are being resolved. The Integrated Health and Social Care Board are acting as an oversight group and an Ageing Well IT Group has been established to try and resolve operational issues. Shaun noted that he attends the Ageing Well IT Group and will feed into this forum where there are strategic issues that need to be resolved. 9. AOB Primary Care Operation Group exception report and Ageing Well IT Group minutes to be standing items on agenda in future. 10 Date of Next Meeting 3 rd September Room E, 1829 Building Minutes of Governing Body Sub-Committees 4
