Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress has been made in the review that Amanda Pritchard has asked Dr Claire Fuller to lead on the matter of Primary Care Networks and how they will be supported under Integrated Care Systems.
Dr Claire Fuller has been asked to lead a review of how systems can enable more integrated primary care to improve the health of local communities. This will report later in the spring, ahead of the proposed establishment of integrated care boards and integrated care partnerships. It will provide advice to all integrated care systems on accelerating the implementation of the primary care, community and prevention ambitions in the NHS Long Term Plan. The review is engaging with a range of stakeholders across primary care.
