Redbridge · local context

Redbridge PCNs sit within NHS North East London ICB.

Redbridge PCNs serve one of England's most South Asian populations with very high diabetes prevalence — culturally competent pharmacist-led SMRs are the single biggest QOF driver.

For pharmacy care navigation specifically, the Redbridge pathway typically integrates with Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals (King George and Queen's). BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

Why Redbridge PCNs choose BCS for pharmacy care navigation.

BCS removes all of that — pharmacists are part of a clinical team, supervision is built in, and continuity is guaranteed by the Chiswick (West London)/Halifax (West Yorkshire) dual-hub.
