Clinical Commissioning Groups

Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) are groups of GPs that will, from April 2013, be responsible for designing local health services In England.  They will do this be commissioning or buying health and care services including elective care, urgent care, and most community health services.

Within the wider Devon area there will be two clinical commissioning groups which will exist in shadow form during 2012-13.  These are NEW Devon CCG, covering Exeter and Eastern Devon, Northern Devon and Plymouth and Western Devon and South Devon and Torbay CCG.  The map below shows agreed boundaries for the CCGs.
