This edition of Clarity Digest explores two timely topics shaping the future of health and care:

AI in Healthcare: Trustworthiness Over Trust

Drawing on The Health Foundation’s blog, this piece argues that the goal should not simply be to build public trust in AI, but to ensure AI systems are inherently trustworthy. That means:

  • Designing AI tools that are transparent, explainable, and aligned with healthcare values
  • Involving patients, clinicians, and the public in development
  • Addressing biases by using diverse datasets
  • Establishing robust regulation and clear accountability

Place-Based Partnerships: Challenges and Opportunities

The King’s Fund report highlights the promise and complexity of place-based partnerships within England’s Integrated Care Systems (ICSs). These local alliances aim to deliver more joined-up services, but face several barriers:

  • Lack of clear governance and mutual accountability
  • Inconsistent budget delegation and financial pressures
  • Cultural and relational challenges among partners
