In the first panel, MPs are expected to consider the ability of ICSs to pursue and deliver on local priorities, such as prevention agenda programmes on well-being to help tackle ill-health.
The health experts are also likely to address the question of how ICSs can operate with autonomy while meeting central targets set by the NHS.
This will be the first public evidence session with the newly elected Committee Chair Steve Brine.
