This video looks at the current structures used by provider alliances to support collaboration for system working. Whilst these have been built on during the Covid pandemic, this session will also look at how proposed legislative change could offer different mechanisms for provider alliances and collaboration.
During the session, we will look at examples of how different alliances are developing around the country and explain the mechanisms we have been advising on. Whilst there is no one size fits all approach, there are principles that apply across all different structure types and we will focus on them to enable your alliances and collaboratives to develop.
