There have been calls to reform the way the NHS is funded to improve its services.

What would it mean to switch the NHS to a social health insurance system? @RThorlby looks at the policy choices that would have to be made – and the possible costs ⬇️

Rishi Sunak said today at #PMQs that rising NHS waiting lists is down to industrial action.

Well how about the last 13 years of rising waiting lists?

Great to attend our @HealthFdn event on the future of social care.
Very well chaired @RThorlby and a wonderful panel: @RichardnotatKF, @leicesterliz, @CoProIsaac and @DamianGreen.

Some really interesting conversations about the long-term solutions for social care in England.

Reductions in public health allocations have been greatest in the most deprived areas.

In Blackpool, ranked the most deprived area in England, the per person cut to allocations have been one of the largest at £33 per person since 2015/16.

Key fiscal choice in the autumn is therefore whether to:

1) top up spending plans to shore up public services, probably via higher borrowing, reducing any fiscal space for tax cuts

2) stick to existing spending plans and allow service quality to deteriorate

Great to speak at @BHASVIC careers and enrichment day yesterday. Glad to see such interest in Economics as a career path! @DiscoverEcon @HealthFdn

Our new analysis shows the frightening scale of possible GP shortages over the coming decade.

BUT there is hope- going full steam with GP supply, going big on retention, and getting practices OD/transformation support to embed new ARRS roles can make a difference if we act now

[George Stevenson @GeorgeWS80]

The general and acute allocation formula does make an adjustment for unmet need. However observed spending doesn't seem to match. This suggests the adjustment might need to be increased or, we should better ensure those in deprived areas have good access to care. (3/3)

Back from my first #HESG2022 conference, hopefully the first of many! Many thanks to the organisers for such a terrific event, and for letting me present @HealthFdn work with @rocks_stephen and @AnitaCTHF on deprivation and hospital spending.

[Stephen Rocks @rocks_stephen]

Congratulations to @GeorgeWS80 @HealthFdn for presenting a poster on the link between hospital spend and deprivation at his first #HESG2022

(Thanks to @laurie_rj for the picture)

[George Stevenson @GeorgeWS80]

This is mostly due to age. Spending rises with age and more older people live in affluent areas, thus evening out the total distribution. However specifically for planned care, we find that spending per capita is actually highest for older, more affluent people. (2/3)
