Dear colleague,
Re:Non-recurrent funding for activity outside of contracted hours
There has been some confusion about the patients that can be treated under this initiative, as well as the oral health assessment (OHA).
The commissioners have confirmed that patients can be seen who require stabilisation that will preclude more complicated treatment in the future, and accept that this may mean multiple visits in some cases.
With regard to the OHA, the commissioners are happy to provide clarity when assessing submissions received.
Although the deadline for submissions has passed, the commissioners have confirmed that the initiative is ‘evergreen’, and that submissions will still be considered during February and March 2022.
Consequently, if you find that you can entertain some 'outside of contracted hours' sessions within the next two months, you can still send a submission to england.dentaleast@nhs.net
