Product Description This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. The Enhanced Services Handbook provides the background as to how ES came to be a fundamental part of the new GMS contract. It goes into some detail on what can be defined as an ES, and, perhaps more importantly, what cannot be defined as an ES counting towards the funding floor. It suggests ways to identify the costs of providing such a service, with methods to detemine the level of profit required. The book includes real examples of service specifications for real ES to provide examples of how to develop a service specification. It brings together all the important relevant documents from the GPC, the regulations and SFE, and examples of already established ES. It contains a comprehensive list of ES set up from around the UK.Definition of ESDeveloping Service SpecificationWorking out CostsWorking out ProfitsGives Examples of ES in PlaceGives Documents from GPC on ESGives Full list of ES Throughout the UKHow to Say 'No' to Unresourced Work About the Author Andrew Dearden is currently Chairman of GPC Wales.
