Rapid Response to the Health and Social Care Changes announced on 7 September 2021

On 7 September 2020 the Government announced changes to funding of health and social care, in the form of an increase in national insurance, with the long-awaited cap on individual care costs to be implemented.

This is a webinar for all those involved in health and social care across local government, NHS and those representing individuals with health and social care needs to discuss the implications of those changes with a panel of experts.

This webinar will address:

• Impact on other areas of the Care Act 2014 including financial assessments and market shaping obligations of local authorities
• Potential areas of challenge
• Looking to the future, greater integration of health and social care through this joint funding levy?
