1. Stratified Follow-Up Pathways
Catherine Neck
Macmillan Cancer Rehabilitation/ Recovery Package Project Lead
16th May 2017

3. Recovery Package & Stratified Pathway Recommendations:
‘Cancer Taskforce is working with Macmillan to roll out the ‘Recovery Package’… a set of actions that ensure the individual needs of all people going through cancer treatment are met by tailored support and services’
‘We know that risk stratified pathways …..can not only improve care for patients after treatment, but create more efficient pathways that can reduce unnecessary hospital appointments’

4. Recovery Package & Stratified Pathway Recommendations:
NHS England, through Cancer Alliances, will drive the spread of risk-stratified pathways, including supported self- management, including assessing the role of commissioning incentives to encourage implementation

5. SWAG Cancer Alliance Living With & Beyond Cancer (LWBC) working group
Aiming to deliver Taskforce recommendations on a local level
Sub-groups focussing on content and quality of Recovery Package delivery across Alliance (HNA, TS and H&WB events)
Stratified Pathway review – aim to standardise approaches to follow-up across the Alliance

6. Review of Current Pathways
Call for examples of current pathways including evidence of any stratification across both SWAG and Peninsula Cancer Alliances
Examples where teams have fully or partially stratified their pathways
CCG’s currently in financial crisis – highly likely to affect follow-up activity

7. Examples of pathway work
UHB current and future pathways
