This chapter describes the added value of One Health through synergies created in delivering integrated healthcare services across health sectors. Current integration is weak and in the context of One Health has a limited scope commonly restricted to ‘integrated surveillance’. In this chapter we use integration to refer to cross-sectoral healthcare/advisory service delivery, where service needs of communities are identified jointly by at least two health sectors, and cross-sectoral planning identifies ways to reach communities more effectively with targeted and relevant services.
