Integrated primary and acute care systems (PACS) - Describing the care model and the business model
A new framework to help local areas establish a single primary and acute care system (PACS) has been published by NHS England. Under a PACS, hospital, primary, community, mental health and social care services align their goals and incentives to improve the health and wellbeing of the population.
The announcement comes following the publication in July of a framework for the multispecialty community provider (MCP) model.
