Pooled Budgets - A Practical Guide for Local Authorities and the NHS
When CIPFA first published Pooled Budgets in 2001, it immediately proved immensely popular.
Since 2001, however, much has changed. Back then, the concept of pooling was new – now there is widespread practical experience of using the so-called ‘health act flexibilities’, as well as other powers designed to support joint working between health and social care.
This new edition of Pooled Budgets, published jointly by CIPFA and the Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA), is therefore timely. It updates and expands the original guidance, and features a useful summary of the various legislative changes since 2001 and related changes in terminology.
For further details and to order your copy click here! You can also purchase it in CD-ROM format.
