NHS Frimley - aka the Integrated Care Board
On 1st July 2022, the Frimley Integrated Care Board will inherit all of the statutory duties and functions currently discharged by NHS Frimley CCG, as well as a number of other responsibilities currently held by NHS England.
All staff below board level who work for the CCG, as well as those members of our broader ICS team who are hosted by partner organisations, are transferring into the new organisation when it is established.
Our ways of working will inevitably need to change in order to meet the requirements of the future. We are starting from a strong position in this regard, with colleagues now well used to reaching across organisational boundaries in the planning, transformation and delivery of improvements to services in our geography. Nevertheless, the ICB will build its own culture and style with an ongoing developmental approach that seeks to build on the successes that have come before.
A new Board will exist for the ICB. The value and benefit of having clinicians as a part of the decision-making process for a statutory body with a budget in excess of £1bn has been proved beyond any doubt and the Board of the ICB will seek to build on the previous success of this approach.
The Board of the ICB will seek to build on the success of its predecessors, who demonstrated the value and benefit of having clinicians as a part of the decision-making process on a total budget of more than £1 billion.

The composition of the board is set out in the table below:.
