Provider collaboratives are partnerships that bring together two or more NHS trusts to work together at scale to benefit their populations. These partnerships are being established across England as part of a national policy, entitled “Working together at scale: Guidance on Provider Collaboratives”, that requires all trusts providing acute and mental health services to be part of one or more provider collaboratives by April 2022.

The Black Country Provider Collaborative (BCPC) is made up of four partner trusts:

• Dudley Group of Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
• Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust
• Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust
• Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust
  
  

Together, they work collaboratively to deliver effective, accessible, and sustainable care services across the Black Country, reaching a total population of around 1.3million people.
