This overview highlights the journey of health and social care integration in the UK, emphasizing that it isn't a new concept. The impetus began with the Health and Social Care Act 2012, exacerbated by budget constraints and the establishment of the Integration Transformation Fund in 2013. By 2018, the vision was to achieve a fully integrated system involving cohesive planning, shared resources, and improved patient experiences. Despite the progress in joint assessments, data sharing, and aligned services, challenges remain, including funding clarity and a hospital-centric focus. The current situation in Leicestershire reflects ongoing efforts towards a more integrated approach.
