Making a Blueprint for Reform: Learning from health and care devolution in Greater Manchester
This seminar will discuss research findings regarding health and social care devolution in Greater Manchester over the last two years.
It will include an overview of how devolution policy has developed; what this has meant for changes in accountabilities, responsibilities and new organisational forms in Greater Manchester, as well as early changes to services; and draw connections with on-going changes in the English NHS and Local Government in relation to place-based working, integration and new models of care.
It will discuss what lessons might be learnt from the Greater Manchester experiment, given it has been paradoxically positioned as both an initiative that the city-region was uniquely placed to undertake, and as a blueprint for reforms elsewhere in England.
