The annual budget for 2025/26, 2026/27 and 2027/28 will reflect the phased implementation schedule for the three early implementer localities.\nDelivery of interim IC@H services is expected to allow the ICB to test whether the model can be scaled as part of our wider approach to developing neighbourhood health and care. \nThe deadline for ITT responses is 12:00 on 8th October 2025.
