Job Summary
The Integrated Care Board (ICB) and Integrated Care System (ICS) have four key purposes:
1. Improve outcomes in population health and healthcare.
2. Tackle inequalities in outcomes, experience and access.
3. Enhance productivity and value for money.
4. Help the NHS support broader social and economic development.
The Integrated Care at Home (IC@H) Board was established in January 2024 to design and deliver a model of care for Bristol, North Somerset, and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG) to achieve the following benefits:
1. Improved efficiency of service delivery through better integration of existing services
2. Better outcomes for people with a specific focus on proactive care and managing risk in the community rather than secondary care
3. Clear priorities for the use of any funding or resource availability
4. Increased confidence in community-based provision
The proposal is to roll out a community-based care coordination function, focused on a specific cohort of patients first, to test and shape development of the full model. The core offer will be consistent across BNSSG, non-medical in its approach, complemented by a central team to link into more medical aspects of related services and provide support while coverage builds. By developing relationships with all system partners, care coordination teams will be the building block for locality-based integrated community frailty teams.
Main Duties of the Job
The Integrated Care at Home programme manager will:
* Provide programme leadership and support to the Integrated Care at Home Board, and support the Board's transition to the Community First Operational Delivery Group, ensuring partner ownership and engagement with the development of the IC@H specification.
* Work with partners to develop and confirm the commissioning documentation for the IC@H model. This includes adapting the model in response to the 25/26 national planning requirements around Neighbourhood NHS, defining outcomes, measurables and production of the service specification. This will involve working with Local Authority, VCSE, Community, Primary Care and Acute Trust partners.
* Work closely with the ICB contracts and procurement team throughout the procurement process, leading the provision of an efficient, effective and high-quality professional and well-coordinated procurement and contract management service capable of meeting all statutory, regulatory and NHS requirements ensuring alignment with the activity of the organisation.
* Prepare documentation and present to the appropriate ICB governance to proceed with the procurement, and to lead the process through to provider award.
* Ensure strategic and operational alignment between providers required for successful delivery of the integrated care at home model.
