What is an Integrated Care System (ICS)?
Integrated Care Systems, or ICSs, are partnerships between organisations that meet health and care needs across an area.
Our health and wellbeing is affected by many things from housing, unemployment, financial stress, domestic abuse, poverty and lifestyle choices. By working together, the NHS, local councils, voluntary services and other organisations can plan and deliver joined up health and care services to improve the lives of people that live and work in their area and help prevent poor health, before issues become more serious.
Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) decide how the NHS budget for the area is spent and develop a plan to improve people’s health, deliver higher quality care and better value for money.
