Executive Summary: introduction Specialist rehabilitation is the total active care (assessment, treatment and management) of patients with a disabling condition, and their families, by a multi-professional team who have undergone recognised specialist training in rehabilitation, led /supported by a consultant trained and accredited in rehabilitation medicine (RM). (Professor Stokes- Turner 2010). This summary slide sets out the business case and financial modelling for the commissioning of additional capacity for Level 2 Specialist Neuro-Rehabilitation Service (SNRS). The identified capacity resource needed to meet current recognised need is equivalent to a total of 19 SNRS Level 2 beds. The proposed service model will provide a more flexible model of bed based and non-bed based/specialist outreach service to meet the varying needs for specialist neuro-rehabilitation for either bedded or community based interventions linking both acute and community pathways. The business case has identified that meeting this recognised need will result in immediate clinical and economic outcomes for patients across West London, Central London and Hammersmith and Fulham CCGs, namely: Provide positive patient experience by substantially reducing unwarranted delay to their next phase of care Reduce additional cost in the acute hospital costs associated with increased length of stay in hospital Measurable improvement in patent outcomes due to improved functional gain as a result of timely interventions and reductions avoidable complications; Quantifiable reduction in long-term (continuing care) costs due to a measurable reduction in the person s weekly on-going care costs. Supporting transitions in care back to localities following rehabilitation. 3
Executive summary: demand & capacity Currently state: 10 commissioned SNRS block beds across the Triborough. This is currently being provided at the Albany Unit, Queens Square, London and provided by the University College of London Hospitals Foundation Trust (UCLH). Significant and increasing Delayed Transfers Of Care (DTOC) in hospitals 6 to 10 weeks DTOC not only impacts on patient experiences of care, but also reduces the benefits to be gained from early intervention on reducing dependency levels Ad hoc out of area spot purchasing, and lost of opportunity in enhancing clinical outcomes and reducing longer term cost for on-going care. Future state: Financial Model quantifies the capacity and investment required to provide a clinical and cost efficient model of care which will significantly reduce: DTOC pressures and acute bed days lost for this patient cohort by 85% Reduce dependency levels leading to reductions in on-going care costs by atleast 481 per week per patient. This is a first step in understanding and monitoring demand and capacity required for this cohort of patients. This is due to lack of complete data. However there is sufficient data set on neuro-rehab demand and delays to analyse, extrapolate and to make an informed estimation on current demand. This is explained in slides 7 and 8 onwards. 4
Executive summary: engagement & recommendation 5 The Business Case for additional capacity has been determined through extensive sector work - coordinated through Imperial College Health Partners (ICHP) the designated regional clinical and academic science network involving: Patients and their families/carers, and representative groups e.g. Health Watch Clinical input from a range of clinicians, practitioners and managers across Acute Hospital Trusts, Clinical Commissioning Groups, Community Health Care providers, Adult Social Care, and Third Sector (Headway) The following four options were examined in the business case are: Do nothing and maintain the status quo; Commission 19 additional SNRS beds resource to provide both a bedded and non-bedded/ Community Outreach model of care within the Triborough CCGs areas; Commission 19 additional SNRS beds within the Triborough area plus the 10 beds currently at the Albany Rehabilitation Unit; Undertake a whole service redesign of the full care pathway. This business case recommends option 2 to commission additional capacity equivalent to 19 SNRS Level 2 beds resource to meet the current and future demand requirements. This will ensure the provision of flexible model of care to meet the varying needs for specialist neuro-rehabilitation.

4) Financial Summary savings on on-going care Evidence from research Study 1 (See Business Case: Turner Stokes et. al, 2005) show that in 2005 the mean average for long-term care cost saving impact following a specialist neuro-rehabilitation intervention was 481 per week per patient due to the reduction in dependency levels. This is what has been used for the business case. Current UK Rehabilitation Outcomes Collaborative (UKROC) benchmarking data (see appendix slide 28) show that the 3 year mean average from 2012/13 2014/15 is 534 per week. Therefore the calculations for long-term care savings are very prudent and conservative. (see appendix) The table below provides a 3 years projection on the minimum cumulative financial impact on long-term savings for the SRNS supporting a projected average of 103 patients each year assuming each patient survives during the 3 year period. The projected long-term cost savings for the 3 year contract life is estimated at 15.5m Long-term care (LTC) savings per year Patients 2016/2017 2017/2018 2018/2019 Total impact LTC savings Year 1 103 2,576,102 2,576,102 2,576,102 7,728,307 LTC savings Year 2 103 2,576,102 2,576,102 5,152,204 LTC saving Year 3 103 2,576,102 2,576,102 Total LTC savings DTOC savings per year Total financial benefit CCGs investments per Year Net costs(+)/benefits (-) 309 2,576,102 5,152,205 7,728,307 15,456,613 369,669 369,669 369,669 1,109,007 309 2,945,771 5,521,874 8,097,976 16,565,621 3,591,340 3,591,340 3,591,340 10,774,020 + 645,568-1,930,534-4,506,636-5,791,601 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/pmc2117444/ 17

Caveats Limitations OPTION 1 As was recommended in the latest edition of the Business Case, a three way CCG split is the most sensible and pragmatic approach for initial investment. This simplicity of this can be re-balanced based on actual usage activity. CCG Finance Leads may accrue up to an additional 20% (as worst case scenario) and re-evaluate financial positions once activity data became available. OPTIONS 2 (Albany usage % for 2013/14 ) & OPTION 3 (Albany usage % for 2013/14 2015/16) Albany does not provide for the full spectrum of Level 2 beds therefore data on usage is only useful for understanding demand for certain patient cohorts only e.g Stroke patients. Whereas this may provide Central and West London CCGs with some indication of their usage, access is limited for H&F CCG - therefore provides only a partial indication of demand for H&F in addition to the limitations above. This is especially the case for 2013-2014 period. OPTION 4 National DTOC reporting categorises Neuro-delays under Category C Further Non-acute NHS care. Category C includes NHS Cont Care and End of Life Care etc. Therefore ICHT data accurately captures the totality of neuro-delays. ICHT is also the biggest referrer for Neuro-rehab. However, the ICHT DTOC data for neuro-rehab is heavily weighted towards H&F CCG in particular as patients are unlikely to end up in Chelwest. Monthly neuro - DTOC from Chelwest is unavailable. 20
