 New integrated care models in England associated with small reduction in hospital admissions in longer-term: A difference-in-differences analysisMarcello Morciano, Katherine Checkland, Jenny Billings, Anna Coleman, Jonathan Stokes, Charles Tallack and Matt Sutton Health Policy, 2020, vol. 124, issue 8, 826-833 Abstract: Closer integration of health and social care services has become a cornerstone policy in many developed countries, but there is still debate over what population and service level is best to target. In England, the 2019 Long Term Plan for the National Health Service included a commitment to spread the integration prototypes piloted under the Vanguard `New Care Models’ programme. The programme, running from 2015 to 2018, was one of the largest pilots in English history, covering around 9 % of the population. It was largely intended to design prototypes aimed at reducing hospital utilisation by moving specialist care out of hospital into the community and by fostering coordination of health, care and rehabilitation services for (i) the whole population (‘population-based sites’), or (ii) care home residents (‘care home sites’).
