Withheld Funding. New services and funding that has been withheld by the DHW provide options for the LHN to access this funding and service providers to support ongoing demand as well as quality improvement initiatives. Elective surgery and bowel cancer prevention funding will be allocated to the LHN based on providing adequate funding to support all overdue patients to be treated such that there are no overdue patients by 30 September 2019. Additional funding will be provided to the LHN to ensure sustainability of no overdue patients ongoing. The palliative care election commitment is to increase services across the state to support a 24 hour, 7 day a week service. As the model of care is in development, this funding will be allocated to support the implementation of the election commitment. The home hospital and priority care centres were funded from the growth allocation, with the aim of providing alternative treatment options. DHW has reallocated half (6 months) of the LHN’s contribution back to the LHN, given implementation is not expected to commence until January 2020. The LHN will be expected to fund the current costs associated with the home hospital pilots from this reallocation. The Neuro Behavioural Unit is unlikely to be operational during 2019-20 and therefore a proportion of this funding has been re-allocated to support the LHN to manage these patients with the support required. The expansion of the SA Community Contract is aimed to support more patients in their own homes and therefore reducing demand on the hospital system. The Quality Improvement Pool was created from breaches for Elective Surgery category 1 patients and length of stay in an Emergency Department of greater than 24 hours. Access to this pool will be via a standardised process that will include assessment against agreed criteria.
