Sussex Health and Care Integrated Care System (ICS) is made up of health and care organisations across Sussex.

ICSs are a way of working that brings together all the health and care organisations in a particular local area, to work together more closely. There are 42 ICSs across England which have been more formally established since 1 July 2022. Many health and care organisations have already been working in this integrated way successfully, particularly through the pandemic, and this is the next step in recognising this success. Each ICS is responsible for looking after and delivering all the health and care services in the area it covers. Each one is made up of an integrated care board and an integrated care partnership, working together.

The British Medical Association (BMA) is the trade union and professional body for doctors in the UK. The BMA represents, supports and negotiates on behalf of all UK doctors and medical students. They are member-run and led, fighting for the best terms and conditions as well as lobbying and campaigning on the issues impacting the medical profession.

The BMA are currently running a campaign in support of GP surgeries across the UK and they are trying to support the NHS to receive more funding so we and GP surgeries across the UK can train and hire more GPs, deliver the services you require and make it easier for you and your loved ones to get appointments to see your GP and practice team.

This General Practice will be supporting a research study called TRANSFORM

We are helping identify people registered with us to take part in a large study called TRANSFORM. TRANSFORM is being run by Imperial College London and funded by Prostate Cancer UK and the UK government’s National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR).

What is TRANSFORM?

TRANSFORM is a study that will try to find the best way to detect prostate cancer early. The study will help the NHS decide whether a national screening programme for prostate cancer should be introduced in the future.

Who could be invited?

Invitation letters are being sent to selected men aged 45 to 74. If you are invited, you will receive more details about the study and can decide if you would like to take part. The invitation will come from your GP practice on behalf of Imperial College London. If you choose to take part, you will be asked to give your consent.

Whose health records will be used?

The study will also use information from NHS records for some men who:

·         have not been invited

·         are eligible, but do not respond

This information is used in a secure and confidential way. The information will provide valuable evidence for the study. You do not need to do anything unless you wish to opt- out.

Don’t want your data used in TRANSFORM?

If you don’t want your health information to be used for TRANSFORM, you can opt-out at any time. Opting out will not affect your NHS care or your ability to take part in other screening programmes or studies in the future. To opt-out, please contact the TRANSFORM study team directly by email, phone or post:
