About Central East Integrated Care Board (ICB)

Central East Integrated Care Board (ICB) is responsible for making decisions and overseeing the delivery of high quality, safe, and affordable health and care services for people in Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, Milton Keynes and Peterborough.

The ICB manages the NHS budget and works with local providers of NHS services (such as GP practices, dentists, pharmacies, hospitals and community health services) to make sure health services work well together and are of high quality.

It also works closely with organisations that provide NHS services to design health services that meet people’s current and future needs and makes sure that services are accessible to everyone.

The ICB also oversees patient complaints about NHS services, makes funding decisions about some treatments, and provides continuing healthcare for patients with long-term complex health needs.

It also works with NHS services and other organisations such as local councils and voluntary sector organisations to promote health and wellbeing so that people live well and for longer.
