Summary

In this blog, Chris Day, Director of Engagement at the Care Quality Commission (CQC) sets out more detail on the CQC’s role in the assessment of Integrated Care Systems (ICSs). He highlights the importance of developing regulation that earns the trust of both people using services and those working in them. He outlines how the CQC will use its new responsibilities under the Health and Care Act 2022 to assess the extent to which each ICS understands the needs of its local population and whether it is working effectively in collaboration, with valued input from all health and care partners.
