Abstract

Integrated care is a prioritized public policy in Catalonia. Since 2011 clear policy and action has been established with great progress in Integrated Care for people with chronic conditions. New updated action has been introduced to design and implement Integrated Care between both health and social care services, creating a new model of person centered care, especially for both people living in the community included in home care programs and residential care. Additionally new potential instruments could be introduced in the process of creation of a new Agency for Integrated Care to facilitate tools in terms of governance, financing and commissioning, and digital solutions and transformation.
