Mike Farrar (invited)
Chief Executive, NHS Confederation
“Changing the 'default setting' for healthcare delivery”
The NHS is under tremendous pressure to provide patient-centred care during a time of enormous demand and restricted budgets. The time has come to review the location of where that care realistically can take place. Unplanned and acute admissions are putting unnecessary strain on our hospital beds when treatment can be provided in the community or home to the satisfaction and preference of patients.

Dr Hugh Reeve (confirmed)
Chair, Cumbria Clinical Commissioning Group
“The challenges of providing a truly integrated community health service”
For the acute trusts to provide services for those most in need and to deliver more patient preferred treatment closer to home, there needs to be a rethink of the current systems. Creating a strong integrated platform for primary, community and social care is necessary if there are to be cost-effective improvements in patient experience and outcomes.

“The role innovation can play in revolutionising current models of care”
The Technology Strategy Board's Assisted Living Innovation Platform (ALIP) is responding to the exciting and unprecedented phenomenon of population ageing. Through challenge-led innovation we are addressing the intractable challenge of long-term care. Our aim to radically rethink current models of long-term care, creating new and desirable alternatives leading to structural and economic change for the future.

TBC (confirmed)
Liverpool Community Health NHS Trust
Liverpool Community Health has combined an integrated care model with telehealth to provide tailored care for people with long-term conditions. The aim is to reach patients with a chronic disease earlier in the process of their condition, and avoid admissions to hospital by giving patients and carers greater control.
16.15
Panel Debate
How should a remodelled provision of healthcare look in the future? Should the secondary sector continue to transfer specialist expertise into fewer units, impacting on patient convenience but claiming to improve outcomes? How can unnecessary admissions to hospitals be reduced so that those who really need acute treatment can be provided for? How do the services and systems in the community need to evolve to provide integrated responsive care?
