Context
• Two systems
• Forces against integration?
• What good looks like
• How we might get there
Context
•
•
•
•
Largest user (2/3rd of hospital beds)
167,000 NHS hospital beds
18,255 care homes provide 459,448 beds
40% growth in public spending on older people to 1.7%
of GDP by 2029/30
• The funding gap between care and health “needs to
change”
• 152 care systems, 250 consortia
Two nations divided by a common
language?
Joint/integrated commissioning
•

•
•
•
•
Not same market
…nor commissioning skills
…nor approach to market development
…nor use of personalisation
…nor acknowledgement of the above
…and experience of integration is mixed
Less hindrance to integrate than
2010?

Performance Regimes
Financial pressures
Organisational complexity
Changing leadership
Financial complexity
Good looks like
• Joint goals
• Very closely knit and highly connected networks of
professionals
• Mutual sense of long term obligation
• High degrees of mutual trust
• Joint arrangements are core business and are operational
and strategic
• Shared or single management arrangements
• Macro and micro joint commissioning

A new model of care
and public health
Citizen purchased care
– state resources
Citizen purchased
care – own resources
Enablement
Prevention
Support and information offer
‘A wider service offer’
MEANS
So Commissioning…
• Will promote resilience in people and communities
• Develop risk and return on investment in prevention
(and public health?)
• Create relationships about evolving practice and best
performance in enablement
• Shape markets through information
• Assist individual budgets where necessary / shown by
citizen statement
Resilience in Communities
• Spend/influence?
• What measures?
• How might we hold
universal offers to
account?
• Is starting now the
beginnings of a new
public health relationship
with place?
So Commissioners will…
• Understand money – from investors to spend
• Consumer information – and intelligence
• Prioritise provider relationships – who matters?
• Work within a fast changing dynamic environment
where the adaptive might survive?
Operationalising integration
Source: Rosen et al (forthcoming)
So…
• The “architecture” locally needs to support known
models of what good looks like
• Sort out common language
• Agree common models
• Clarity of purpose with the urgency of focus on people
and outcome
Conclusions
• Integrated commissioning, easy to say,
tough to deliver
• In developing the structures, pay attention to
the ways of working
• Size of the prize!
