NHS policy for 2024/25: strategy and engagement in a world of uncertainty (recorded in Jan 2024)

Pharma Market Access Insights - from Mtech Access

What do we know about plans and policy for 2024/25? As the expected central operating plan had not materialised (at time of recording), and with a general election and a potential Labour government on the horizon, how can NHS and industry drive forward improvements and innovation?
Host Robert Hull (Senior Consultant – NHS Insight & Interaction, Mtech Access) was joined by guest speakers Debbie Morgan (Director of Service Improvement and Transformation, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust), Ellen Rule (Deputy CEO/Director of Strategy & Transformation, Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board) and Dr Viren Mehta (GP Partner, GP Federation Chief Officer, Viaduct Care). Together we explored what all this uncertainty means for NHS decision-making, day-to-day operations, strategy, and engagement with industry.
In this webinar, we bring together leaders from across the NHS to explore how they are planning and operating in this uncertainty.
We explore:
- Strategy and planning in these times of uncertainty
- What’s happening with GP contracts
- Financial pressures and challenges
- If/where it’s possible to drive forward change in the current environment
- How Pharma and Medtech can best support NHS leaders
- Where the panel would welcome solutions from industry
Please note this episode was first broadcast in January 2024 as a live webinar. Some aspects of policy discussed have evolved and continue to evolve.
