The journey to integration: Learning from seven leading localities

Across the country most areas are now pursuing a vision for integration to deliver better sustainable health and care to respond to the pressure of an ageing population, gaps in care today, and the tight fiscal environment.

This report, commissioned from Carnall Farrar by the Local Government Association (LGA), synthesises the findings from seven programmes in England.

The extent to which integrated care has aspired to and/or achieved measurable benefit has been examined.

This has been reviewed in parallel with whether differences in the design and execution of integrated care contributes to the impact each programme can have.
