Why the Integrated Care Delivery Forum 2026 matters now
The health and care system is entering a defining period of change.
The government’s new 10-Year Plan has set an ambitious direction for prevention, digital transformation and integrated delivery. Integrated Care Boards are being firmly repositioned as strategic commissioners, not operational regulators, with new expectations for outcomes, financial accountability and partnership working. The Single National Formulary is rapidly approaching its 2027 deadline, reshaping medicines optimisation and systemwide prescribing. Major AI and intellectual property reforms are rewriting how innovation is developed, validated and adopted across the NHS.
The Integrated Care Delivery Forum brings together the leaders shaping the next phase of NHS reform. This is where national policy meets real-world delivery — from the rollout of new commissioning models to the technologies and data that are reshaping how decisions are made. Join the people transforming systems on the ground as they navigate the shift toward neighbourhood health, Integrated Health Organisations and a more coherent, collaborative future.
In a year defined by some of the most significant pivots in NHS policy, ICDF equips delegates to understand the changes, seize the opportunities and help position integrated care as a true engine of health, social and economic value.
