PROPOSED BID REVIEW OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL CARE INTEGRATION (Agenda Item 4) The proposal to undertake a BID (Business Improvement Delivery) review to examine the possible formation of a new form of service delivery vehicle had been discussed further with the CCG. The proposal had not been agreed and would not now take place. RESOLVED: That no further action be taken to progress the BID review proposal. 9. INTEGRATION TRANSFORMATION FUND AND NEXT STEPS (Agenda Item 5) Consideration was given to the report and to the step s that now needed to be undertaken in relation to the Integration Transformat ion Fund (ITF). It was clear that little of the £3.8bn available through the ITF woul d be new money (£1.9bn was from existing funding from across the NHS and social care and £ 1.9bn was from current CCG budgets). However, it was noted that £1bn of the funding would be performance- related. Concern was expressed that no indication had yet been gi ven as to what the allocation criteria would be for the ITF. Consideration was give n to putting a plan together to detail what joint work could be undertaken by the CCG and the Council to progress the integration of health and social care and whether this would improve Hillingdon’s chances of securing a larger share of the ITF. It was noted that guidance on the apportionment criter ia was expected in the next 2-3 weeks. Although it was anticipated that the criteria w ould be based on outcomes such as delayed transfers and shared commissioning plans, thi s would not actually be known until the guidance had been published. Furtherm ore, it was suggested that the bidding process may be more about ensuring that Hillin gdon secured the money that it had contributed to the ITF rather than being reward ed for innovative joint working projects. It was agreed that officers would need to pro duce a plan that was safe but also innovative. It was anticipated that officers would be in receipt of the ITF guidance by the next Board meeting on 31 October 2013 and would then be a ble to establish a range of options for inclusion in a plan. RESOLVED: That officers and partners consider the ITF guidance as it is issued from Government and prepare evidence to form a pote ntial plan. This should include mapping existing integration activity and d eveloping outline proposals for future integration, to report back at a further meeting of the Sub-Committee in December 2013. The meeting, which commenced at 1.30 pm, closed at 1.43 pm. These are the minutes of the above meeting. For more information on any of the resolutions please contact Nikki O'Halloran on 01895 250472.
