We’re presenting at Best Practice Show Birmingham! Collaborative working and scaling up of general practice provision can bring a number of benefits for both practices and patients. However, scaling up your practice and working in a more integrated way with other parts of the healthcare system can give rise to a number of legal issues and challenges. In our session, a panel of specialists from our Primary Care team will explore collaborative and at scale working models and provide tips for overcoming some of the most common legal pitfalls. Delegates can find us exhibiting at stand F101 - register to join us here: rfg.circdata.com/publish/BP2… Not able to chat with us at the conference?

The Parliamentary Secretary for the Cabinet Office has issued a statement today, 12 September 2024, in relation to the #ProcurementAct2023 commencement date. The statement advises that the government intends to make regulations to set a new date, 24 February 2025, for commencement of the Act. This pushes the 'go-live' date back by four months from the original planned date of 28 October 2024. The reasoning given in the statement for this delay is that: 'It is crucial that the new regime in the Procurement Act goes live with a bold and ambitious Statement that drives delivery of the Government's missions'. Further, the delay is intended to allow for a more seamless transition and effective implementation process for contracting authorities and suppliers.

As legal adviser to @NCAlliance_NHS on the opening of its Salford Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC), in partnership with @InHealthGroup, it's brilliant to see a facility like this located at the very heart of the local community. The CDC, which is located in a retail park, aims to serve 20,000 patients each year by providing a range of diagnostic testing, including scanning (MRI, CT and Ultrasound) alongside heart and lung tests, and tele-dermatology. It is one of 160 clinics being opened across England to give patients access to tests and scans outside of hospital. The Hill Dickinson team advising NCA was led by health commercial partner Jamie Foster, assisted by associates Alex Hollingsworth (health commercial), Alexandra Maleedy (health real estate) and Charlotte Major (health real estate). #Salford #CDC #Diagnostics
