We have interpreted the hon. Member's question to refer to the intended future monitoring of integrated care boards (ICBs) as the successor to clinical commissioning groups (CCGs).

The proposals for ICBs are set out in the current Health and Care Bill. ICBs will be established from April 2022 and will take on the merged allocations from CCGs. The Department does not currently monitor the per capita expenditure of CCGs and there are no plans to monitor the per capita expenditure of ICBs.
