South West London CCG Annual Report and Accounts 2020/21

Assuring delivery of performance and constitutional standards and national performance indicators NHS England assesses the performance of each CCG through a national Improvement and Assessment Framework. The metrics for oversight and assessment purposes were intended to include the headline measures described in the NHS Long Term Plan Implementation Framework against which the success of the NHS will be assessed. These Long Term Plan measures were to be used as the cornerstone of the mandate and planning guidance for the NHS for the next five years, with 2020/21 being the first year. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and the need to release capacity across the NHS to support the response, the collection and publication of some of the performance indicators were paused between April and June with subsequent extensions into Quarters 2, 3 and 4 of 2020/21.
