Decision details

Declan Hadley, Digital Lead, Healthier Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care System and Lindsey Roome, Digital Programme Manager, Sustainability and Transformation Partnerships, NHS England North (Lancashire and South Cumbria) presented the PowerPoint presentation that was circulated with the agenda.

The presentation provided an update on the 20 weeks population health management accelerator programme and a short video clip was shown.

The programme would give opportunities for partners to collaborate more than was currently happening and needed to link with national initiatives.  Data sharing was still a key challenge and a solution was still being sought regarding this and the Board was asked to support this across the sector.  Everybody needed to work better with the resources they had and use it in a better way.  The success of this programme will be how the rest of the public sector, including transport, housing etc work with each other.

Resolved:  That the Health and Wellbeing Board:

i)  Discussed and endorsed next steps to embed population health management as an approach to implement Integrated Care Services priorities, in particular the development of neighbourhoods.

ii)  Receive a further update report in January 2020 which includes a progress report on information sharing agreements.
