In almost all countries the provision of healthcare (hospitals, doctors) and social services (homecare, social workers, care homes) are siloed in many ways. Often the payors are different. Often, the two sides barely talk to each other. Often cultures are very different - healthcare can be very top down, for instance. But bringing ALL services together should create huge synergies, cost savings and a much stronger sense of community and empowerment.
