Integrated Care Systems Network

The only national network bringing together the leaders of integrated care systems.

Our Integrated Care Systems (ICS) Network is the only independent national network which supports ICS leaders to exchange ideas, share experiences and challenges, and influence the national agenda. We are delighted to have all 42 ICSs in membership.

We support, represent and influence on our members' behalf through our policy work, media appearances and external affairs programme.

Our forums, webinars, Spotlight sessions, roundtables and our annual conference provide unique opportunities for ICS leaders to connect and share ideas and challenges.

Our regular bulletins and communication help to keep members supported and informed with the latest news, information and guidance that ICS leaders need to know.

“I really value the range of discussion and debate across all the issues which is backed up by high quality briefings and materials that really help me as an ICS leader to keep abreast of events in our fast moving world.” 

Professor Stephen Eames, CBE, CEO at Humber, Coast and Vale ICS
