This joint CIPFA/HFMA series of events covered the potential approaches to governance and risk in the operation of the Better Care Fund (BCF). Given all the current pressures on health spending it is more important than ever that health and social care are properly integrated and deliver positive local outcomes for those individuals who are going to be supported by the BCF. How will the local Better Care fund operations be governed and how will budgets be effectively pooled and controlled?
This series examined what the approaches should be to ensure the best chance of successful outcomes.
