Conclusion
We again recommend that the Care Quality Commission includes consultation with patient groups and details of patient outcomes in its assessment of ICSs. (Paragraph 68) Funding and policies to tackle the backlog
Government Response Acknowledged
HM Government Acknowledged
Accept in principle. The Government agrees that patient involvement in services is important, and that this should be taking place in all areas of health and care. The Care Quality Commission’s assessments of Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) already include consultation with patient groups and patient outcomes, and we continue to believe in the importance of this.
