National Conference for CCG Leaders

The NHS Clinical Commissioning Coalition is calling on all Clinical Commissioning Groups leaders to be part of a free national conference to discuss the implementation of clinical commissioning.

The event, to be held at the Cavendish Conference Centre in London on the 24th of April, will give CCG leaders the opportunity to express their concerns, share their experience and develop common themes that CCGs would like the NHS Clinical Commissioning Coalition to take up on their behalf.

The conference will have the presence of the NHS Commissioning Board’s chairman, Professor Malcolm Grant; Monitor’s chairman and interim chief executive, David Bennett; and Secretary of State for Health Andrew Lansley MP. It will allow CCG leaders to discuss their views honestly and frankly with each other as well as key NHS bodies which will be instrumental in the run up to implementation of clinical commissioning in April 2013.

This initiative is part of the NHS Clinical Commissioning Coalition’s efforts to ensure that CCGs are heard, able to define their future and receive the support they need to make their vision a reality. By facilitating honest discussion, sharing of information and involving different parts of the NHS in the process, the Coalition wants to create a supportive environment which will enable CCGs to be truly successful and thrive.

This event has been supported by Capita and UnitedHealth UK.
