19th January - 23rd January 2015
Towards the end of last week, I had the opportunity to attend a workshop which explained the changes that had been made to the NHS Standard Contract for this year (2015/16). The session was led by Contract leads from NHS England. It was a really interesting and helpful session, which allowed us to understand what changes we could expect to the format of the contract and also to the online system, which is known as ‘eContract'. I was particularly interested to hear about the changes that had been made to the eContract system, as I have been using this piece of software over the past few weeks to draw up a contract for the treatment of AMD (Age-related Macular Degeneration) as mentioned in previous blog posts. Luckily, the system hasn’t changed too much and there are now fewer steps to go through before a contract is issued. It also gave me the opportunity to meet other Contract managers from neighbouring CCGs.
Next week, I am looking forward to interviewing candidates for next year’s student placement! It will be great to sit on the other side of the interview panel this time and to gain some more experience in Human Resources. I have no doubt that we will find a great candidate for the job!
