Here you will find information about our legacy policies and procedures from Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin CCG. We are currently in the process of adapting these for NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin.
This webpage will be regularly reviewed to ensure it is as up-to-date as possible.
This policy sets out the criteria for access to secondary and tertiary level fertility services (intrauterine insemination (IUI), in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) and IVF with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)) for the population covered by Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin Clinical Commissioning Group. Access to fertility services is governed by the same principles as all other services, namely clinical effectiveness, cost effectiveness and the outcomes of the CCG’s Commissioning Needs Assessments.

This policy applies to any patient in circumstances where Shropshire Telford and Wrekin Clinical Commissioning Group (STWCCG) is the responsible commissioner for their NHS care.
It equally applies to any patient needing medical treatment where the Secretary of State has prescribed that the CCG is the responsible commissioner for the provision of that medical treatment as part of NHS care to that person.
Where responsibility for providing NHS services to the patient has been transferred to STWCCG, STWCCG will, subject to the terms of this policy, honour existing funding commitments made by the patient’s previous NHS commissioner.
The terms of this policy outline the circumstances where STWCCG will and will not honour existing funding commitments.

Business Continuity Plan
Business continuity planning forms an important element of good business management and service provision. All business activity is subject to disruptions such as technology failure, flooding, utility disruption and terrorism. Business Continuity Management (BCM) provides the capability to adequately react to operational disruptions, while protecting welfare and safety.
This plan is to be used to assist in the continuity and recovery of Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin CCG in the event of an unplanned disruption. A disruption could be any event which threatens personnel, buildings or operational capacity and requires special measures to be taken to restore normal service. This could be a matter specifically relating to STWCCG or as part of a wider incident that affects a broader range of system partners
Attachments:
This policy exists to help protect CCG staff, the public and other stakeholders from the risks of infection and for the CCGs to comply with national guidance and legislation.
Attachments:

Attachments:
