AnnotationThis article uses diagrams to illustrate the concept of joint commissioning of care by health and social services, to describe the policy context, and to explore the lessons of experience. It draws on the EPICS work in Shropshire, amongst others. Aspects dealt with include: Department of Health (DoH) definitions; the mixed economy; conflicting imperatives and the shared agenda; the continuing care gap; constraints; tasks and processes; implementation; purchasing strategies; and commissioning levels.
