On our first episode of the Providers Podcast we're joined by Matt Brown who is the Managing Director of the North East and North Cumbria Provider Collaborative.

Matt talks us through what the Provider Collaborative is, how the system works within the NHS and some of the projects that are currently taking place to help improve patient care across the region.

He also discusses how the Provider Collaborative has already helped address some of the challenges the NHS faces and how his visit to share best practice in Northern Ireland went.
