Version: Final K - 1

2 04.2 Tender Waiver Action remained outstanding: Yarlini Roberts to ask Sylvie Ford to provide agreement from Richmond CCG of their agreed 50% contribution of 203k. 16/05 FINANCE REPORT MONTH 10 Jenny Sinnott presented the key messages from the Month 10 financial scorecard. In 2015/16, the CCG is on target to meet all key financial targets Including delivery of the required 1% surplus of 2,178k To enable the delivery of the year end 1% surplus, the CCG has had to utilize its reserves The CCG did not achieve its cash target in Month 10, due to a banking error at SBS. All Better Payment Practice Code targets were achieved in Month 10, which has improved the cumulative position The CCG expects to over-achieve its QIPP target saving by 114k In month 10, the CCG received a non-recurrent allocation for Healthy London Partnership of 156k, which is a reallocation of the London underspend and contingency. 245k of resource was transferred from the CCG into the SWL Risk Pool. Members noted the following financial risks for Kingston CCG to meet its financial targets: Many local acute providers predict deficit budgets in 2015/16 which is likely to impact on CCG acute budgets Performance issues at Kingston Hospital may have financial consequences for the CCG If the CCG accepts delegated primary care commissioning, responsibilities will transfer to the CCG on 1 st April Acute Commissioning Members noted the year to date position reflects the month 9 reported contract variances, adjusted for challenges. Over performances have been fully reflected in forecasts. Under performances have not been shown in full. Members noted the following: Kingston Hospital reported a slightly worsening position of 57k Epsom & St Helier s forecast position has improved by 125k since month 9, as consultant vacancies have been filled and the Trust is working through the RTT backlog. The run rate in month 10 has increased in acute but decreased in orthopaedics Under performance is reported at St George s position at month 9/10. The forecast has been adjusted to reflect the RTT backlog work planned over the coming months Ashtead Hospital continues to under perform significantly and this pattern is seen across South West London. We have assumed that Kingston and St George s will reinvest the contract penalties in Qtr 4 but not the readmissions. This is in line with recent guidance. Version: Final K - 2

3 Focus on Other Acute Contracts Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust Members queried the under performance reported at Month 10 for Royal Brompton as concerns around over performance had previously been reported. ACTION: Jenny Sinnott agreed to check the data and report back to members.

Draft specifications were being developed and would be discussed with the Hospital by the end of the week. ACTION: Yarlini Roberts agreed to update the Finance Committee Chair on any further discussions. Non Acute Commissioning Mental Health The mental health placements costs have increased by 16k due to an extended stay. The overspent budget will be funded by underspend in other mental health areas (not including the Parity of Esteem investments). Mental Health Parity of Esteem investment schemes are forecast to be fully spent in 2015/16. Continuing Care The continuing care forecast has improved by 119k since Month 9.

Discussion followed on the option of remaining with a breakeven plan submission vs the plan for the CCG to meet its business rules.
