Policymakers and stakeholders at this seminar discussed next steps and challenges for widening the implementation of Personal Health Budgets (PHBs).
Areas for discussion included the renewed commitment to widening PHBs outlined in the NHS England Business Plan 2016/17, the impact of Local Sustainability and Transformation Plans on implementation, and the role of ‘local offers’ between CCGs and Health and Wellbeing Boards in improving flexibility and person-centred care.
Delegates also considered priorities for the Integrated Personal Commissioning framework, challenges for CCGs in following Shared Planning Guidance to widen participation, the impact on newly covered areas such as mobility and maternity, improving provider models to meet patient needs, and challenges for ensuring that PHBs remain cost effective.
