Provision of community care: who, what, how much?
Health Foundation May 2017
  • Analysis of information obtained through FOI  requests on the community care contracts held by 78% of CCGs found that NHS providers held more than half of the total annual value of contracts in the sample, while private providers held 5% of the total annual value, but 39% of the total number of contracts issued.
  • Private providers tended to hold much smaller contracts, with 6 in 10 holding contracts with a combined value of less than £100,000. Additionally, most held just one contract.
