چکیده
Background Integrated care systems (ICSs) in England were formally established in July ۲۰۲۲ to coordinate the planning and delivery of health and care services. A key responsibility was to address the quality of these services. Our study aimed to examine how ICSs approach this responsibility and to identify opportunities and barriers experienced in their early establishment and development. Methods A sample of four ICSs were recruited to participate. Interviews and meeting observations were undertaken in two phases (before and after the inception of ICSs) around ۱۲ months apart. A total of ۱۱۲ interviews were carried out with senior figures in the four ICSs supplemented by observation of relevant meetings and analysis of relevant documents. Results Regarding quality, ICSs demonstrated several new ways of working. They set-up new structures for quality governance and created whole-system strategies for quality centred on major responsibilities regarding population health and health inequalities. These strategies required new and relevant metrics to assess quality and outcomes and a greater focus upon co-production in the development of services. They aimed to strike a fine balance between longstanding requirements for quality assurance and new responsibilities for quality improvement (QI). New approaches were underpinned by new collaborations between system partners extending beyond healthcare to include Local Authorities (responsible for social care and public health) and local communities. Conclusion To address the many challenges of quality, ICSs have created new ways of working cultivating different kinds of collaborative relationships compared to established hierarchical, siloed and top-down ways of working prior to their formation. A focus on improving population health and reducing inequalities has required a shift from “here and now” urgent problem-solving to working with longer timelines. Such changes require patience in the context of political pressure to devote efforts to more salient problems such as waiting lists.کلیدواژه ها
