A bid by health chiefs to save more than £11 million in the next financial year in Argyll and Bute is likely to fall more than £5m short, a new report has revealed.
A meeting of the integration joint board (IJB) which runs Argyll and Bute’s Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP), is due to hear that less than half of projected savings for 2018/19 are expected to be achieved.
The figures are revealed in a report by the HSCP’s interim head of finance, Kirsty Flanagan, and were due to be discussed at a meeting yesterday (Wednesday January 30).
