Minutes:
The Corporate Director for Community Wellbeing introduced the BCF reporting for 2024/25 and made the following comments: due to the national submission timetable, the returns had been approved by the Corporate Director and the accountable officer of the Integrated Care Board; Herefordshire had reported in each quarter that all of the national conditions and national metrics had been met; and the BCF ended the financial year with a small underspend overall but attention was drawn to the overspending on Additional Discharge Funding.
Resolved: That
a) The Better Care Fund (BCF) 2024/25 quarterly reports at Appendices 1, 2, 3 and 4, submitted to NHS England, be approved; and
b) The ongoing work to support integrated health and care provision that is funded via the BCF be noted.
