An unnecessary divide: the impact of pensions taxation on NHS trust leaders
28 January 2020
NHS Providers press release

Excerpt: Nine in ten respondents to the survey said that they and their organisation were concerned that differential arrangements for different staff groups – for example offering a solution to senior doctors and nurses but not managers – would also create divisions and harm culture and morale.

The findings also reveal:

  • Over a third (37%) of board-level directors said fewer staff in their trust are seeking or accepting promotions, while 60% said clinicians are now less willing to take on leadership roles.
  • Nearly 70% of clinical executives have turned down or would consider turning down promotions into roles required for the effective running of services or taking on additional leadership responsibilities.
  • There was a near-unanimous view (97%) that senior non-clinical staff should be eligible for any pension contribution flexibilities implemented by the government.
  • Almost as many (95%) felt that flexibilities should be available to all NHS staff.

Leaders from 188 trusts (84% of the total) took part in the survey.

Leadership to facilitate change
A section within UCLPartners resource below: …”how leadership can help, encourage and facilitate change, assisting the implementation of non face-to-face (Nf2f) clinics.”

“A free online guide from UCLPartners to setting up non-face-to-face clinics for NHS managers and clinicians has launched today.

Non face-to-face clinics (also known as virtual clinics) can help reduce unnecessary outpatient visits, saving time and money for patients and the health service. The NHS aims to avoid up to a third of the number of face-to-face outpatient visits over five years, removing the need for up to 30 million outpatient appointments each year.

However, there is little practical guidance on how to develop this approach.

The new how-to guide, developed by UCLPartners in collaboration with NHS clinicians, managers and patients, provides a comprehensive guide to setting up non-face-to-face clinics, including how to develop a project plan and business case. It is free to use, delivered through both text and videos, and can be accessed via our website.”
