Delivering on the promise of system working to generate impact in population health
As we enter the second year after the official establishment of the 42 Integrated Care Boards, all ICS Chief Executives and ICB Chairs are invited to unite at the HSJ Integrated Care Summit to discuss the opportunities and challenges of integrated care for overall improved health and well-being.
The high-level summit, held in October 2024, will gather ICS leaders, senior NHS England representatives, clinical leads, social care, local authority and VCSE for a conversation on integrated care strategies and how to improve population health management and shift the dial towards preventative health and care across the country.
What is the purpose of the Integrated Care Summit?
Gathering ICS and ICB leaders and help them build and strengthen meaningful connections as peers
Sharing original ideas on how to integrate cross-sector organisations
Enabling open discussions between stakeholders, and help providing clarity on guidance for ICSs
Demonstrating the potential practical opportunities of integrated care and drive progress and innovation for better population health
What will be discussed and what has changed in the past year?
Firmly establishing the practical role of integrated care systems in unifying trusts and delivering better healthcare
An increased focus on assessing ICBs and their leadership distinct from their providers – overall system performance
