Slide 6Strictly Private & Confidential
Each sector working independently to address key challenges
Independent sector collaboration governed by competition law parameters
Many differences in operating models but many common challenges exist
Collaboration between sectors adhoc; no formal mechanisms to facilitate
Independent sector invited to participate in some fora, e.g., NCEC, NCAG
Opportunity being lost to share best practice, much duplication of activity

What’s Required to Make It Happen?
Slide 14Strictly Private & Confidential
Many common challenges exist
Efforts are being duplicated and best practice not shared as widely as possible
Many reasons why collaboration has not been optimal to date
Opportunities exist in many areas to collaborate for benefit of the entirety of the health system, and especially for patients
Moving towards “one tier” system – opportunity to move in that direction pre UHI introduction
