Health needs and a new ICB

The Integrated Care Board (ICB) is the group that commissions all the health services for the area where you live.

A move may mean that your child or young person not only changes local authority, but also ICB. The old ICB must notify the new ICB on the day of the move or, where it has not become aware of the move at least 15 working days prior to that move, within 15 working days beginning on the day on which it did become aware.

Where it is not practicable for the new ICB to secure the health provision specified in the EHC plan, the new ICB must, within 15 working days of becoming aware of the change of ICB, request your new local authority SEND team to make an EHC needs assessment or review the EHC plan. The new local authority SEND team must comply with any request.
