Browne Jacobson are at the forefront of advising health and social care providers, commissioners and regulators across the country. Our experience in both the public and private sectors means we are a trusted advisor to over 150 NHS bodies and local authorities as well as many independent providers. In this webinar series, we look at the NHS white paper which sets out the legislative proposals for the new health bill, which has been created to support the statutory delivery of Integrated Care Systems.
This is the fourth and final in a series of four webinars and we provided an overview and discussion of key aspects of the ‘Additional Proposals’ included within the White Paper, including data, discharge to assess, the HSIB and Medical Examiners. It will be an opportunity to share thoughts on any practical implications which may arise out of the proposals.
The session was chaired by Sir Neil McKay, Strategic Consultant for Browne Jacobson, who has a long and distinguished career in senior leadership positions in the NHS in England.
