This @hsj.co.uk piece from @chrisbnaylor.bsky.social totally nails it- lots of good stuff on CVD prevention in the 10 Year Health Plan but will only have impact if accompanied by some radical shifts in incentives including fiscal levers. www.hsj.co.uk/policy-and-r...

Promotional image for an event titled 'Taking prevention forward – what can we learn from across the UK and NI?', scheduled for September 17, 4:00 pm, featuring speakers Chris Whitty, CMO for England; Sir Gregor Smith, CMO for Scotland; Isabel Oliver, Chief Medical Officer for Wales; and Michael McBride, Chief Medical Officer for Northern Ireland. Hosted by The King's Fund.

It is clear that bold action is needed to make the shift to prevention a reality.

The Chief Medical Officers from England, Wales, Scotland & Northern Ireland will be joining us in September to explore what we can learn from across the UK.

🧵Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is responsible for 25% of UK premature deaths.

Up to 80% of these deaths are preventable.

It’s estimated that the burden of CVD costs £29 billion each year.

But CVD prevention is not currently being prioritised by the government at the scale needed.

Can the 10-Year Health Plan make the NHS environmentally sustainable? Why the 10-Year Health Plan is a historic opportunity to improve both the quality and sustainability of care.

Great piece from @healthfoundation.bsky.social on the opportunity for the government's 10 year health plan to help deliver net zero and build a climate-resilient NHS - and the risk of that opportunity being missed:

'Arguably, the conditions were never right for ICBs to perform their role as system convenors.., but it remains a function that needs to be performed'

Anna Charles and @chrisbnaylor.bsky.social share their thoughts on the 'model ICB' shared recently. buff.ly/vLeSYKM

The Government Wants a ‘Neighbourhood Health Service’. The First Step is to Agree What That Means. Does a neighbourhood health service mean different things to different people? Chris Naylor argues that there needs to be a common understanding of what the goal is.
