In March 2025 the Government asked Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) to cut running costs by 50%. As part of the plan to achieve the reduction of costs, three ICBs are coming together to form a new, larger ICB which will be called ‘Central East ICB’. We expect the new larger ICB to come into being in 2026.
The three ICBs – covering Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, as well as Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes, and Hertfordshire – have begun working together more closely with a new leadership team from 1 October 2025 to lead their staff and the organisations through the transition.
