Our response to the 10-year health plan for England

Change is a given in the healthcare landscape, and while that has always been the case, the shifts taking place currently need to go further than ever before.

Anticipation was therefore rife for months ahead of publication of the government's 10-year plan for healthcare in England. Now it’s out, the system has already begun to react.

The ‘three radical shifts’ the plan is calling for, namely hospital to community, analogue to digital, and sickness to prevention, are admirable aspirations, but I can’t help but feel there are probably more questions than answers at this stage of the game.
