NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board (ICB)
NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board (ICB) plans and buys healthcare services to meet the needs of the 2 million people living in Kent and Medway. We are focused on providing the best possible care for the whole county.
We are forming a fundamentally different kind of organisation.

Aligned with the model Integrated Care Board (ICB) blueprint, we will act as a system convenor, architect, and steward. We are moving away from transactional oversight and towards transformational, values-led leadership—guiding the future of health and care across our geography.
