A letter detailing actions for integrated care boards (ICBs) following DDRB uplifts and other contract changes has been published by NHS England. The government has agreed to fund a 6% uplift to the locum reimbursement maximum entitlements available under Part 4 of the Statement of Financial Entitlements. It has also agreed uplifts to primary care networks (PCN) entitlements and pay-related elements of the general practice workforce transformational (SDF) funding. This letter sets out the financial implications of these decisions, details of the additional funding allocations issued on 30 September 2024 and the actions required of ICBs.
