General practice collaboration Framework for London

Next Steps to the Strategic Commissioning Framework
Healthy London Partnership October 2018
  • This guide sets out a vision for strengthening general practice collaboration across London.
  • It outlines two main types of collaborative arrangements between practices:
    • Larger scale general practice models (LGPOs). Multiple practices work via formal collaborative arrangements so they can develop and train a broad workforce, as well as create shared operational systems and quality improvement approaches.
    • Primary care networks (PCNs). Practices come together with community providers and the voluntary sector to serve smaller populations. The vision is to create multidisciplinary and team-based care for people with enduring, complex health and care needs.
