Issue - meetings

The Board considered a report which provided an update on One Halton Place Based Partnership development with Cheshire Merseyside Integrated Care System (ICS) context.

The Health Policy and Performance Board received reports in November 2021 and February 2022 setting out the requirements for the formation of Integrated Care Systems regionally.  This consists of an Integrated Care Board (ICB) and an Integrated Care Partnership (ICP), along with at Place level, a Place Based Partnership (PBP).  Locally, this was the One Halton Place Based Partnership – these arrangements were set out in NHS Reforms White Paper, Integration and Innovation, published in February 2021.

It was noted that these were the most significant changes to health arrangements in a decade which aimed to improve outcomes and reduce inequalities.  The report provided the Board with some context, an overview of progress and the current position.

RESOLVED:  That the Board notes the report.
