Jersey Care Model (FOI)

Request

My question concerns the Jersey Care Model.

We are told that PWC have been appointed to carry out stress testing in the Jersey Care Model. Could you please tell me:

A

When the results of the stress testing will be available to the public?

B

Are PWC stress testing the actual model itself as well as the financials?

C

Please provide Terms of Reference for stress testing.

D

Please provide names of places such a Care Model has been rolled out and is working effectively in a similar jurisdiction. (ie an island)

Response

A

The result of the stress testing will be made available to the public after it has been to the States Assembly, which is intended at the end of Q2 prior to the summer break. We are unable to give an exact date when it will be available to the public at this point, but likely to be in June / July 2020.

B

They are testing both the model and developing a cost profile for the model and its implementation.

C

Please see PDF document below for the terms of reference:

D

The model is not a replica of other jurisdictions but based on local knowledge of what would work and is needed for Jersey. It was developed by Jersey clinicians and professionals combined ideas drawing on international best practice case studies.
