Who does what

The NHS England Digital Primary Care team will set direction, manage funding and monitor progress for reimbursement and new buying spend will be monitored and reported to regions and ICBs on a monthly basis

Regions will support ICBs, ensuring all practices have:

• the digital tools and capabilities to support transition to Modern General Practice as a means of improving access
• access to locally developed support offers so practices can use the tools effectively

ICBs will work collaboratively with PCNs/practices to:

• confirm ICB plans for the selection and delivery of digital tools across each practice
• ensure all practices have the digital tools which are aligned to the ICB digital strategies
• provide assurance of PCN/practice collaboration for ICB-wide buys
• engage with NHS England's National Commercial and Procurement Hub to support the buying process, including the expiry of the Accubook contract on 30 June 2024 (reimbursements can only be guaranteed where hub have been engaged)

The NHSE National Commercial and Procurement Hub will continue providing enhanced advice and support to ensure:

• products selected are appropriate, meet the standards and capabilities as outlined in the DP Framework, chosen collaboratively and on correct contract terms
• contracts can move to new frameworks as they become available

Practices/PCNs  should continue to link with their ICB digital and primary care leads to ensure their requirements are discussed.
