Hewitt Review - Feb 2023.

Government Review

“The Hewitt Review: an independent review of integrated care systems. The review set out to consider the oversight and governance of integrated care systems (ICSs). Each ICS has an integrated care board (ICB), a statutory organisation responsible for developing a plan for meeting the health needs of the population, managing the NHS budget and arranging for the provision of health services in the ICS area. ICBs include representatives from local authorities, primary care and NHS trusts and foundation trusts. The review covered ICSs in England and the NHS targets and priorities for which ICBs are accountable, including those set out in the government’s mandate to NHS England. The government published a joint response to the Hewitt Review and the Health and Social Care Committee report on ICSs on 14 June 2023.”
