Background

Our Healthier South East London (OHSEL) is a partnership of health and care organisations responsible for looking after the health and care of the 1.9 million people living in Bexley, Bromley, Greenwich, Lambeth, Lewisham and Southwark.

The partnership is made up of NHS South East London Clinical Commissioning Group, NHS Trust providers, Local Authorities, other health and care providers, alongside voluntary and third sector organisations.

In 2019 OHSEL became London's first integrated care system. South East London Integrated Care System (ICS) brings together local health and care organisations and local councils to re-design care and improve population health, through shared leadership and collective action. The aim of South East London ICS is to build on the collaboration of the partners to date through Our Healthier South East London by addressing three problems in local healthcare:

• The health and wellbeing gap - people should be helped to lead healthier and longer lives • The care and quality gap - variation in the accessibility and quality of care should be improved • The funding and efficiency gap - the NHS must become more efficient and make better use of the money available

It has recently been announced that integrated care systems will become statutory bodies in 2022 if legislation is passed later this year (exact timings still TBC). Current proposals envisage an ICS to be made up of an ICS Health and Care Partnership, bringing together the NHS, local government and partners, and an ICS NHS Body. The latter will be responsible for the day to day running of the ICS, while the ICS Health and Care Partnership will focus on bringing together systems to support integration and develop a plan to address the systems' health, public health, and social care needs.

The South East London ICS is our vehicle for delivering system transformation and achieving our goals of reducing health inequalities and achieving system sustainability. Therefore, developing the public and partner understanding of OHSEL Integrated Care System is crucial.

Additional information: The Contract is expected to commence in early June 2021, with the deadline for website delivery in the first week of October 2021, and a subsequent 12-month maintenance contract to be agreed.
