Exploring ICS progress two years on
With integrated care systems now just over two years old, how effective are they in succeeding at their goals, and what needs to change for them to be more effective in the coming years? Matthew Taylor talks to Dr Kathy McLean OBE, chair of the NHS Confederation’s ICS Network and NHS Derby and Derbyshire Integrated Care Board, as we release our State of Integrated Care Systems in 2023/24 report.
Before that, Matthew speaks to Bridget Gorham, health economics policy adviser at the NHS Confederation, as new research highlights the economic imperative of investing in women’s health services. An additional £1 invested in obstetrics and gynaecology services per woman in England could generate a staggering £319 million return to the economy.
