East Area LPC’s – Joint LPC working

Joint working has been the aim of Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex and Cambridge & Peterborough LPC’s. This occurs at all levels of operation and allows better representation of Community Pharmacy with ICSs, Health Education England, NHS England and other regional and national organisations.

Increasingly, Officers from individual LPCs are working differently within federated workstreams to manage workload and produce better outcomes for contractors. LPCs will continue to look at opportunities for both formal and informal federation in areas where activities can be scaled up to produce quality outcomes for contractors across a wider area, freeing up officer time to focus on ever changing priorities.
