Enhanced services packages

Comprehensive packages for four “ready made” enhanced services have been developed by the Co-operative Pharmacy Group. The packages — for substance misuse, smoking cessation, minor ailments and emergency hormonal contraception services — also include prices.

The packages are aimed at primary care organisations (PCOs) and include a service specification, a draft service level agreement, guidance for setting up a patient group direction, training requirements and all supporting paperwork and marketing materials. The packages can be tailored to the individual requirements of PCOs, with a corresponding modification in price.
