The CCG is currently preparing for an STP merger with the South Essex Clinical Commissioning Groups with the aim of being a single organisation by April 2021\. As such, the CCG has made the decision that working with their existing provider to continue to develop the service by extending the pilot will be the best solution to provide a technology-enabled, community paediatric nutrition prescribing support dietitian \(PSD\) service for Mid Essex until the new organisation is in a position to make strategic commissioning decisions for future provision of community dietetics for the STP\.
