Initial As-Is Discussion
General
- Post funding is related to site -
- multiple sites for a single post implies multiple finding sources
- The funding is split by time and site
- It’s very important to link old and new posts for traceability
- Editing posts relating to funding is also important
- Needs to be a difference between trainee related funding and post related funding
New Challenges
Suspension of Training
- Where there has been a quality concern a training site (or multiple) may need to close
- where there is a major concern, the site is shut down for training, trainees need to be re-housed
- where there is a minor concern and the trainee can be moved within the same trust, the post is just edited to reflect a new or other minor detail
- Process currently involves 3 steps
- 1- indicate post is suspended (i.e. inactive)
- 2 - create temporary post within a new trust
- 3 - finance team apply full salary re-charge
- Problems occur when the temp post is left indefinitely or for longer than 2-3 years - a solution would be to apply limits relating to severity of a case which then reminds admins to review the temp post
- Ian Bateman would be best placed to advise on whether this would be a good move
Post Funding Administration
- too many users are able to manage posts and post funding currently, which creates errors
Funding Algorithm
- funding allocation directly relates to funding type
- tariff (HEE)
- Medell? (Dental)
- Trust
- Other - includes salary re-charges, there is potentially regional variation in how this is applied
Slot Shares
- needs to account for job sharing by allocation %
Trainee in Difficulty
- will need special funding
Recommendations for TIS
TBD
