Miscellaneous
With seven months to go we discuss what ICSs have to do before they become statute on 1 April, amid brewing rows over who might sit on the board. We also discuss mental health provider collaboratives, which will soon be taking on budgets and ask: what can ICSs learn from them? And with yet more news of private providers being rated inadequate, we ask who is keeping a grip on care quality. Featuring Sharon Brennan, Rebecca Thomas and Annabelle Collins.
