How can integrated neighbourhood teams (INTs) tackle health and care inequalities? A policy evidence brief

Further research is needed to establish a robust, equity-focused framework for the implementation and evaluation of INTs. Policy makers and health care leaders should focus on ensuring funding allocation according to local need, fostering community partnerships, co-locating health and social care services, and standardising IT systems and information governance to maximise the potential of INTs to reduce health inequalities.

Abstract

Further research is needed to establish a robust, equity-focused framework for the implementation and evaluation of INTs. Policy makers and health care leaders should focus on ensuring funding allocation according to local need, fostering community partnerships, co-locating health and social care services, and standardising IT systems and information governance to maximise the potential of INTs to reduce health inequalities.
