Paragraph: 17
Integrated Care Systems require balance between local priorities and national accountability.
Conclusion
It is clear that Integrated Care Systems offer a new way of working across health and social care. They encourage collaboration with a range of partners and a focus on what matters to their local populations. This fundamental premise needs to be balanced within a national service, funded by taxpayers and accountable to Parliament. It is therefore right that DHSC and NHS England set some of the priorities that ICSs should be working towards.
