The LGA and NHS Confederation have outlined their shared ambition for health and social care integration in a new report All Together Now: The future of integration.
The report will be used to engage partners and key influencers who work in health and social care to gain support for a joint action plan that will significantly develop how integration is rolled out at national level.
The report outlines a common vision for the future of the integration of health and social care and identifies the current barriers that councils and the NHS are facing and highlights what government needs to do to incentivise and promote integration.
Over the coming weeks and months we will be developing our proposals of what the NHS Confederation and LGA can do as national membership organisations representing the NHS and local government, to support local political, clinical and community leaders to outline long-term plans for integration. We would be interested in hearing your views on the proposals.
