Since October 2020 the responsibility for the commissioning of Adult Secure Care mental health, learning disability and autism services has transferred from NHS England (NHSE) Specialised Commissioning to Provider Collaboratives.
Fifteen Provider Collaboratives nationally coordinate and deliver care for adult patients requiring low and medium secure care.
The East Midlands area Provider Collaborative is called IMPACT.
IMPACT is a partnership of 9 NHS and independent sector providers and is led by Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS FT as the Lead Provider.
The Other Organisations In The Collaborative Are
Cygnet Healthcare
Derbyshire Healthcare NHS FT
Elysium Healthcare
Nottinghamshire Partnerships NHS Trust
Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust
Lincolnshire Partnerships NHS FT
Northamptonshire NHS FT
Priory Healthcare
St Andrews Healthcare
In order to preserve integrity and avoid conflicts of interest, Nottinghamshire Healthcare Foundation Trust as the Lead Provider developed an arms-length commissioning and clinical oversight function (the IMPACT commissioning hub). IMPACTs commissioning hubs role involves understanding the local population and empowering local clinicians and Experts by Experience to design improved pathways of care. Through the Lead Provider arrangements IMPACT also sub-contracts other providers e.g. to support discharges from secure care, assure the quality of services and lead the necessary reporting regionally and nationally to NHSE.
The Senior Case Manager (Operational Lead) has a central role in the IMPACT hub’s Senior Leadership Team. The postholder will work in close contact with IMPACT’s Clinical Director, Managing Director and Lead Managers for Improvement, Contracting, Finance, Quality and Engagement.
The postholder will lead and line manage a team of case managers. As a team they provide credible oversight and facilitation of care for patients and have influence over commissioning plans and decisions. More specifically they support IMPACT’s commissioning hub and the wider provider collaborative.
