Alliance Contracting in Health and Social Care is a ground-breaking and practical guide to collaborating and co-ordinating service provision across different providers, taking readers through each step from initial concept to launch and operation.
Responding to the need for more joined up services, the book explains how alliancing and alliance contracting can tackle the system issues which often stymie collaboration between different agencies. It takes a people-centred approach providing guidance for the legal, financial and governance frameworks needed for organisations to work together, ultimately providing better health and social care. Written by a leading expert in the field, it also features detailed examples of where alliancing has already proved successful, including services around mental health and homelessness in different regions of the UK.
This important book will be essential reading for anyone commissioning services across the health and social care sector, in both the UK and beyond.
