Information for commissioners

As the NHS continues to evolve, the role of Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) and healthcare commissioners has become increasingly complex, balancing local priorities, national policy and the need for high-quality, safe, sustainable services. We understand that commissioning is not just about buying services – it’s about designing care that delivers value, improves outcomes, and supports the long-term sustainability of the NHS. That’s why we work closely with our members to ensure that every commissioning decision is informed, strategic and aligned with both local needs and national priorities.
