Answered by Andrew Gwynne
The 10-Year Health Plan will consider the change needed to meet the three health mission goals of; a fairer system where everyone lives well for longer: a National Health Service that is there when people need it; and fewer lives lost to the biggest killers. Meeting these goals will ensure a better health service for everyone, regardless of condition or service area.
We will carefully be considering policies with input from the public, patients, health staff, and our stakeholders as we develop the plan.
