Government announced that health and care will
be required to have plans in place by 2017 to integrate by 2020. In
addition, in both the north and south of the county, new models of
health and care are being considered.
Cabinet is being asked to consider whether, and if so how, to
engage with these programmes. In particular, it will be considering
whether to enter into developmental arrangements for an accountable
care system through the Better Care Together programme and the
resultant implications for the Council.
