I am reaching out to better understand the allocation of funds attributed to the Better Care Fund. What is the budget for your Health and Wellbeing Boards over the last 5 years? Would you be able to give us a breakdown by source: o Minimum allocation from Integrated Care Systems (ICSs), or previously from Clinical Commissioning Groups o Disabled Facilities Grant o Social care funding (improved BCF) o Winter pressures grant funding o Additional Discharge Fund o other How do you distribute the Better Care Fund? Do you procure services at a Health and Wellbeing Board level or do you distribute funding to NHS Trusts for them to spend individually? If the services and suppliers are procured at a Health and Wellbeing Board level could you detail the spending by contract over the last 5 years. If the budget is distributed to NHS Trusts, please could you provide a breakdown of distribution by trust for the last 5 years.
