PCN Management Support

Supporting PCNs with a structured service delivery to optimise patient care

Our management support service for Primary Care Networks (PCNs) provides extra assistance and strategic operational oversight to ensure consistent, quality outputs across member practices.

Our team offers support to PCNs to drive these results that enhance patient care. We deliver a governed clinical pharmacy service with case discussion, quality oversight and assurance in line with NHS expectations.

How Will This Help My Practice?

Virtual Pharmacist’s clinical team offers management support for PCNs in order to reduce pressure on Clinical Directors. This helping hand across GP practice groups drives enhanced patient outcomes.

Needs-Matched, Turnkey Support

For GP practices within PCNs, our managed clinical service delivers the clinical activity, governance, and specialised reporting that these care networks need in order to meet DES and IIF requirements. We work smoothly across multiple practices to keep networks fully aligned and supported.

Service Governance & Quality Assurance

We back the service with clinical escalation routes, robust governance and quality auditing, giving PCNs assurance on safety and consistency. This managed support gives Clinical Directors the reassurance that services are both safe and consistent across the network.

Optimised Use of ARRS Roles

Our frameworks help Primary Care Networks get the most clinical value from ARRS-funded roles, lifting consistency and effectiveness across the service., in turn offering enhanced patient care.

“The team is consistently reliable. Phones are always answered and emails come back the same day. It’s made a real difference to how we run our medication reviews.”
