Better Care Fund plans are jointly developed by health and social care partners in every area in England and support integrated, person-centred care in communities.

The policy framework is intended for use by those responsible for delivering the Better Care Fund at a local level (such as clinical commissioning groups, local authorities, health and wellbeing boards) and NHS England.

The document should be read alongside the BCF Planning Requirements for 2021 to 2022, which are published on the NHS England website.
