Integrated Care in the City of London Update

Report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services.

Minutes:

The Board received a report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services providing Members with an update on the recent developments in integrated care (health and social care) locally and some of the wider changes in governance and planning structures for these services.

 

Highlights included the merger of the Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) in North East London to form one North East London CCG which would be formally implemented in April 2021 and supported by governance changes.  

 

Officers were working with Tower Hamlets on integrated care models with relation to the City’s residents registered with the Tower Hamlets CCG to map the different pathways in the sector and ensure the colleagues understood the services available and make the right offer.

 

In response to a query regarding measuring success, Members were informed that a framework was in place to collect baseline data which would be measured against the outcomes.

 

Healthwatch welcomed links and integration with Tower Hamlets to ensure these residents and services were not forgotten. Members were supportive of this joined up approach.

 

RECEIVED.
