Achievements
Coverage: Over 60,000
Outcomes: - A better course of illness and fewer symptoms - Halving of suicide rates
- Substantial reduction in admission rates - 50-60% recovery rates (2011)
Cost savings: ‘EIP can save in the order of £5,000 per case in year one, rising to £14,000 by year three compared to treatment as usual’. (McCrone et al 2009) Slide6

Fourteen years on from the original IRIS guidelines, EIP has become established as the preferred model of service for young people with emerging psychosis and their families:
Endorsed by NICE core Schizophrenia Guidelines (NICE CG 82 2009)
Highlighted in current mental health policy (DH 2011 No Health without Mental Health; Section 7.13; p66)A commitment in the 2012/13 NHS operating framework (DH Nov 2011)
Featuring in the emerging PbR toolkit cluster 10One of the most researched areas in MHSlide8
2012 Research Headlines
People treated by early intervention in psychosis had significantly fewer admissions, readmissions and total bed days and better engagement with services
(The Psychiatrist, 2008)Specialised EI programmes are cost effective over the long term and can deliver a higher recovery rate at 33% of the cost of standard mental health services.
(Schizophrenia Bulletin, 2009)
For people with early psychosis, early intervention services appear to have clinically important benefits over standard care improving access to treatment and reducing hospital admission, relapse rates and symptom severity (BJPsych, 2010)Functional recovery at 14-month follow-up significantly predicted both full functional recovery and remission of negative symptoms at 7.5 years. Early recovery plays a pivotal role in preventing the development of chronic negative symptoms and disability (Schizophrenia Research, 2012)Slide9

‘EIP is one of the keys to improving mental health services and national mental wellbeing. The problem is that in these times of intense spending pressures the incentives to invest in these services risks being crowded out by much shorter term pressures. Any decision to redesign community MH services must draw on the evidence base and safeguard the important functions and outcomes of EIP teams that make them so effective’.
Steve Shrubb, NHS Confederation, Director of the MH Network, 2011
ChallengesSlide12
Better for Less?
Cost savings are impacting on service provision
Tough decisions delegated to directorates and teams Short term cost savings: - Clumsy efficiency drives
- ‘Salami slicing’ - Loss of leadership
- Dumbing downCan we afford EIP in the current climate?Slide13

‘Early intervention is crucial to improving outcomes. The Commission’s view is that Early Intervention in Psychosis has been the most positive development in mental health services since the beginning of community care. These services are popular with service users and families and there is a clear evidence of their effectiveness’
Schizophrenia Commission, November 2012Slide15
Summary
EIP has not only transformed the lives of thousands of young English people but has inspired and encouraged leaders and professionals in many other countries to move in the same direction.
EIP has a clear and consistent evidence base, improving outcomes and saving money if delivered in accordance with the evidence.EIP does not describe an intervention but rather a model of service and a philosophy of care.
A specialist team model is most able to deliver clinical and cost effectiveness. Success is closely related to fidelity.
We have come a long way but there is still further to goSlide16
The Future?The future of the EIP reform may lie within a wider and more ambitious reengineering of the health system
EIP into CMHT or CMHT into EIP?
Providing early intervention and recovery within a broad spectrum youth mental health model?
Psychosis pathways and PBR?Integration?Prevention?Competition?Slide17
IRIS
From a questionable acronym with modest ambitionTo a new paradigm of genuine recovery for those with the most serious MH problemsBy
linking research, policy, activists, service users and, vitally, service commissioners and providers Slide18
