Hull CCG Finalist In ‘Hat Trick’ Of Health Care Awards

NHS Clinical Commissioning Group’s (CCG) exceptional leadership in service transformation and financial management is in the spotlight this week as the CCG reaches the final in three prestigious health care awards.

Chief Officer Emma Latimer and Chief Finance Officer Emma Sayner are joint finalists in the Yorkshire and Humber NHS Regional Recognition Awards for both the Leading Systems Transformation and Inspirational Leadership categories. Healthcare in the city is further recognised with Hull GP Dr Scot Richardson also being shortlisted in the Inspirational Leadership category.

Emma Latimer’s role as leader for the Humber Coast and Vale Sustainability and Transformation Plan (STP) is supported by Emma Sayner as STP Finance Director. Their successful mix of leadership styles has helped to build their strong reputations as system leaders. The STP brings together 20 organisations including CCGs, local authorities and providers serving an estimated 1.4 million people.

Emma Latimer has engaged many stakeholders throughout the development of the STP and ensured that the door is open for the voluntary and community sector to help shape and influence its direction and work programmes. Recognition has been given to the swift pace at which local leaders have come together under Emma Latimer to develop a comprehensive STP programme to improve health and wellbeing in some of the most deprived wards in the UK.

Supporting Emma Latimer, Emma Sayner has successfully used her skills, drive and motivation to bring together financial leads across the STP to reach agreement around the financial challenge and programme of work. Emma Sayner is well respected as a valuable source of knowledge and a mentor to many people in and out of the NHS.

The CCG’s Finance team is a finalist for Accounts Team of the Year in the national Healthcare Financial Management (HFMA) awards. The HFMA awards celebrate achievement in health care financial management, recognising that finance has a major role in transforming the NHS. Hull CCG has achieved the highest (1A) NHS England North category for financial assurance, and three years of unqualified annual accounts and has used innovative ways to explain how NHS finance operates in Hull. Both award ceremonies take place on Thursday 8 December 2016.

Chair of NHS Hull CCG Dr Dan Roper, said:

“I’m delighted to see the CCG as finalists for three high profile awards. The regional nomination represents the significant work that the CCG is leading and collaborating on to deliver the STP, and the HFMA nomination recognises the important contribution that good financial management by local accounting teams makes towards patient care.”
