Answer

It is not possible to provide the requested information, itemised by Trust, due to the regional nature of the number of investments and the nature of care pathways which may involve individuals being dealt with by more than one healthcare provider.

Of the total £44.31m of Health and Social Care resources ‘shifted left’ by the end of 2014/15, the expenditure provided for:

The resettlement of Mental Health / Learning Disability clients (£27.5m)

a range of transformational initiatives funded directly by HSCB recurrent funding (£16.29m)

to implement transformational initiatives that resulted in hospital activity avoided (£0.52m)
