  • Developing the Long Term Plan for the NHS
    9 August 2018 Developing the long term plan for the NHS Today NHS England and NHS Improvement have published a document on developing the long term plan for the NHS. This briefing summarises the document; outlines what we know about the plan; our view on the process and development of the plan; and how we plan to engage in its development. As ever, we welcome member thoughts or input on this and anything in the wider briefing. Please contact Chris Hopson, Chief Executive ([email protected]) or Amber Jabbal, Head of Policy ([email protected]) with any feedback. Overview of the five and ten year plans In March, the Prime Minister committed to a “sustainable long term plan” for the NHS backed by “a multiyear funding settlement”. She expanded on this in June, confirming a new funding settlement for the NHS of an average of 3.4% real terms increase over the next five years. Mrs May also tasked the NHS with producing a 10 year plan in return for the increase in funding, setting out how the service intends to deliver major improvements. The timing of the plan’s publication is expected to coincide with the autumn Budget, where the funding uplift, and how it will be funded, will be formally set out. Further detail is set out in the next section. The government’s priorities and tests for the plan The Prime Minister set a number of priorities for the 10 year plan. They include: • “getting back on the path to delivering agreed performance standards – locking in and further building on the recent progress made in the safety

  • Sir Bruce Keogh Future NHS Stage Tuesday 12 September 15.00 - 16.00
    Keynote: Sir Bruce Keogh Future NHS Stage Tuesday 12 September 15.00 - 16.00 Speakers: Richard Vize (Chair) Sir Bruce Keogh, National Medical Director, NHS England Richard: Hello again. So welcome to the first of this afternoon's two keynote speeches. It is great pleasure to introduce our next speaker, who as you all know has been one of the driving forces, not just of NHS expo, but one of the leading drivers of change across the whole of the National Health Service over the last decade and is a major figure nationally and internationally. Bruce is moving on to new roles in the NHS soon. But it gives me great pleasure to introduce Sir Bruce Keogh, the NHS Medical Director. Bruce: Thank you very much for that kind introduction, and thanks to those of you that have put time aside to come here this afternoon. In the mid-to second half of the mid-1960s there was a small boy in Africa, I think he was about 11, something of that order of magnitude and he was sitting on the grass underneath a tree listening to a green and white Phillips transistor radio, and there was a programme about the National Health Service in England and that little boy knew he wanted to be a doctor, but was still formulating ideas. He went in and spoke to his mum about what that meant, because he realised that he lived in a country that wasn't as modern as England and his mother explained the National Health Service and he said, I would like to work in that health service one day.
