New Ways of Working to Manage and Improve Quality in Integrated Care Systems in England
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.
