Provider Collaboration Forum

Provider organisations have historically worked together to address mutual challenges. But the requirement for some providers to be part of a collaborative, and the formal role for provider collaboratives in the structure of integrated care systems, are new and need careful consideration.

As the organisation that brings together the whole healthcare system in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, we are uniquely positioned to support you to collaborate and work across organisational and/or sector boundaries.

As a member of the Provider Collaboration Forum, you benefit from learning and insight to take your collaboration to the next level. Plus, as part of a community of collaboratives, you can add your voice to shape policy development.

Benefit from peer learning groups and leadership and regional support.

The forum is primarily aimed at those within acute hospitals. Forms of collaboration could include those around:

• back-office functions and place-based collaboration
• themes, such as commissioning, clinical leadership, procurement, workforce, primary care, community, mental health or acute care.
