The
Gloucestershire Health and Wellbeing Partnership is a statutory
Committee of the One Gloucestershire Integrated Care System (ICS),
established jointly between the NHS Gloucestershire Integrated Care
Board (ICB) and Gloucestershire County Council as equal partners
and statutory members. The Gloucestershire Integrated Care
Partnership is a requirement of Section 26 of the Health and Care
Act 2022.
The Partnership is
a key component of the governance architecture for the One
Gloucestershire ICS. Alongside the ICB, its purpose is to deliver
the four fundamental purposes of the One Gloucestershire Integrated
Care System, including: -
•
Improving outcomes in population health and healthcare
•
Tackling inequalities in outcomes, experience, and access
•
Enhancing productivity and value for money
•
Helping the NHS support broader social and economic development
The Partnership
has a statutory duty to prepare an Integrated Care Strategy to set
out how the assessed population needs of Gloucestershire and
strategic priorities for health and wellbeing will be met by the
Integrated Care Board, NHS England, or the responsible local
authorities whose areas coincide with or fall wholly or partly
within its area.
