FODO announces its interest in the NHS consultations regarding Standard Contracts and the NHS payment scheme
NHS England is running annual consultations on the Standard Contract (closes 25 February) and NHS payment scheme (closes 28 February).
The Standard Contract is used to commission all enhanced primary eye care services in England, while the NHS payment scheme sets out principles for setting local prices for enhanced primary eye care services.
FODO will review the consultations on members’ behalf and work with sector partners, including LOCSU, to assess the best way to respond with a collective voice. Those involved outside LOCSU and FODO membership should of course take an interest in such discussions.
