There's been no shortage of NHS plans over the years – what needs to be different this time? Health and care services are facing acute pressures and the NHS tops the public's list of priorities. The government has pledged to ‘reimagine' the NHS via a 10-year plan, expected in the spring. The pressure is now on to develop a credible reform plan. It will need to address the huge challenges of changing health care needs and capitalise on the opportunities ahead, including those stemming from new technologies. All within a challenging fiscal context. So what needs to be in the plan on key priorities – primary care, community services, and improving hospital services? What are the lessons from past NHS plans? And how can policymakers bring front-line staff with them and provide hope their working lives will improve?

The government is aiming to create 1,000 new GP jobs through the additional roles reimbursement scheme (ARRS), but are they on track to hit this target before the end of March? Nick and Emma discuss what we know about how the scheme is going.They also talk about a report from the Nuffield Trust, which shows how the ARRS more widely has changed the make-up of the workforce in general practice and argues that the introduction of new roles to the NHS has not been backed by enough planning and support - particularly on issues such as training, regulation and supervision.And they discuss some of the problems the CQC is facing and how this is potentially impacting on GP practices.Our good news story is about a change in RCGP policy for exam resits for GP registrars who are disabled.This episode was presented by GPonline editor Emma Bower, deputy editor Nick Bostock and senior reporter Kimberley Hackett.

Derogation, the way in which striking doctors can be recalled to the ward to protect patient safety, was agreed by NHS England and the BMA. Now, new data The BMJ has uncovered shows that the mechanism was rarely used - and when it was tried, was often rejected. Gareth Iacobucci explains what that means about relations between the government, the NHS, and doctors. Felice Jacka, director of the Food & Mood Centre at Deakin University, is one of the authors of our recent ultra-processed foods umbrella review - and joins the podcast to talk about the link between diet and health; and why goverments need to pay more attention to the food system. Finally, John Appleby, senior associate at the Nuffield Trust, and Gillian Leng, dean and president elect of the Royal Society of medicine, have been thinking about healthcare funding, and how more stability is essential in securing the service's future.

This episode is with leading health and care expert Nigel Edwards. Nigel recently stepped down as the chief Executive of the Nuffield Trust, a leading health think tank, after a wide-ranging career in the sector, which included a stint at NHS Confederation. This episode is very timely. Health and care services are adapting to a new structure at the same time as being under huge pressure and Nigel brings fantastic insight into what is currently happening within the system and what might change. We talk about the emphasis on “place” and “neighbourhoods” and the ambition for local services to be more co-ordinated, driven by local priorities and ultimately more focused on keeping people healthy and out of hospital. We ask the question – are leaders able to make time to build the relationships which are needed to enable this type of high trust working. We take a deep dive into children's health and discuss the ambitious plans Integrated Care Boards have for children's health and the fact that the NSH cannot possibly achieve them without working very closely with councils and other partners. We ask, what enabling leadership and conditions need to be in place to achieve these ambitions for children? None of these changes will have any effect unless the change permeates down to middle management and front line staff. We challenge the notion of the “frozen middle” or “permafrost” which is a criticism sometimes aimed at public sector middle managers and look at the potential of regional working and ask what the right level is for different activities. Enjoy it!

The Nuffield Trust has published a damning report saying that NHS dentistry was in 'perilous decline' across England, particularly in rural and coastal areas, with many people struggling to enrol with NHS dentists. It's the last big push for farmers to get veg into the shops before Christmas, but it's been an incredibly difficult year for many root vegetable growers - with near drought followed by deluge. We catch up on the swede harvest in action.All this week, we're looking at our farmers' contribution to Christmas trimmings, and today we hear about mistletoe and holly. Mistletoe grows naturally in the countryside, mainly in the South and West Midlands, and for more than 160 years it has been auctioned off in an annual sale in the town of Tenbury Wells on the Shropshire / Worcestershire border. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Marie Lennon.

Today, women make up around half of all doctors and two-thirds of all medical students. So, has equality in health care finally been achieved? When International Women's Day began in 1909, women were still barred from entering medical school. Today women make up a growing share of the medical workforce and students in the UK. Despite this considerable progress, research indicates that today women in health care are under-represented in leadership roles, are paid less than male colleagues on average, and still all too often encounter sexism and discrimination. To mark International Women's Day 2023, we invited three female leaders at different stages of their careers in health care to reflect on the expectations, experiences and challenges that have shaped their professional journeys and what needs to happen to continue building a truly inclusive workforce. To discuss, our chief executive Dr Jennifer Dixon is joined by: Dame Jane Dacre, emeritus professor at UCL Medical School, chair of the Health and Social Care Select Committee's expert panel and former president of the Royal College of Physicians Dr Nikita Kanani, director of clinical integration at NHS England and deputy senior responsible officer for the NHS COVID-19 vaccination programme and a GP in south east London Dr Gabrielle Mathews, NHS Assembly Member (NHS England) and a doctor at North Middlesex University Hospital NHS Trust.

Hundreds of thousands of nurses across the UK are going on strike. The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) said the strike will affect the majority of NHS employers as nurses take action against pay levels and patient safety concerns. Patients who are already facing record waiting lists are now likely to see operations and appointments delayed or cancelled, though emergency care will continue. On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson hears from two nurses about day-to-day life in the NHS and Billy Palmer, from health think tank The Nuffield Trust, on why NHS frontline staff are quitting in record numbers. Plus, Sky News' Health correspondent Ashish Joshi on the government's response to the pay disputes.Editor - Philly Beaumont Podcast producer - Rosie Gillott Interviews producer – Alys Bowen Digital producer - David Chipakupaku
A conversation with Camille Oung from The Nuffield Trust
Since the very beginning of the NHS, GP surgeries have been, in effect, businesses with contracts to do the work the Health Service needs. But in recent decades, patient numbers have grown, surgeries have become larger and the services offered more varied. Many GP surgeries now employ administrative staff, nurses, physiotherapists and paramedics, as well as doctors. What's it like to be a clinician and run a small business at the same time? What are the pressures? How do you get the books to balance? And how do you attract more people to join one of the front lines of the NHS? Evan Davis and guests discuss. GUESTS Dr. John Lynch, GP Partner, Framfield House Surgery, Woodbridge Suffolk Dr. Matt Noble, GP Partner, GP@hand, Bablyon Health a 'digital first' practice Dr. Yazmin Razak, Single GP practitioner, North Kensington and Dr. Rebecca Rosen, Senior Fellow, Health Policy at the Nuffield Trust and part-time GP, South London Producers: Julie Ball and Kirsteen Knight Researcher: Louise Byrne Sound Engineers: Graham Puddifoot and Rod Farquhar Editor: Simon Watts
The GP crisis with Rebecca Rosen This week, we discuss the ongoing GP crisis, an ever-topical subject, in light of recent UK governmental changes. In early September, Thérèse Coffey laid out her plans for the NHS in the House of Commons, but, with general practice struggling so much as it is, is she proposing practical and feasible solutions, or will her initiatives be merely papering over the cracks? We're joined by Rebecca Rosen to discuss whether or not there's any real substance behind the proposed changes, how to manage patients' expectations around access to care, and how primary care practitioners might be best supported in order to help ease the strain on them. Our guest: Rebecca Rosen is a GP in South East London, and a senior fellow in Health Policy at the Nuffield Trust.
Record numbers of nurses are quitting the NHS in England, according to new data analysis by the Nuffield Trust for the BBC. More than 40,000 have left the health service in the past year. Another report published this week from NHS Providers said the squeeze on pay amid rising inflation is forcing nurses and other staff to stop contributions to their pension, skip meals and take on second jobs. Anita Rani speaks to Molly Case, a clinical specialist nurse, working in the community in South London. We talk about family WhatsApp group chats. They can be a source of great joy or great annoyance. We speak to author Nina Stibbe and Journalist Nell Frizzell who has been looking into this. Regarded as one of the greatest English-language novelists of this century, Dame Hilary Mantel was perhaps less well known for her brilliant writing on chronic illness. Throughout her life the author suffered from a severe form of endometriosis. Emma speaks to writer Sarah Perry, author of the Essex Serpent, who has had her own experience of chronic illness and Eleanor Thom, author of Private Parts, how to really live with endometriosis. Giorgia Meloni's election as the Prime Minister of Italy is just the latest victory for a woman on the right of the political spectrum. The vast majority of European women who have had true executive power come from the right, starting with Margaret Thatcher. Emma speaks to Professor Matthew Goodwin and the academic Costanza Hermanin to discuss why the Left have had fewer female leaders. 'Ladies shall we have some fun?' We speak to sex and relationship expert Oloni, who built an online community by speaking openly about sex and relationships. We discuss her new book 'The Big O'.

Throughout August we've been showcasing some of the best interviews from series one of the podcast.This week Emma talks to Dr Rebecca Rosen, a GP in London and senior fellow at health think tank the Nuffield Trust, about continuity of care, the evidence to support it and steps practices can take to embed continuity of care in the way they work. This interview was recorded in October 2021.Since this was recorded we've written quite a lot about continuity of care on GPonline. The House of Commons Health and Social Care Committee is currently running an inquiry into the future of general practice and the benefits of continuity of care and what the NHS can do to promote continuity have been one of its themes. Dr Rosen gave evidence to the committee about the work she's done in her practice.The RCGP has also stepped up efforts to promote what it calls relationship-based care and highlight its importance in general practice. The college has produced a new report looking at what's needed to help practices deliver relationship-based care and continuity (link below).This episode is presented by GPonline editor Emma Bower. It was produced by Czarina Deen.Series 3 of Talking General Practice begins on 9 September.Useful linksRCGP work on relationship-based careGP crisis endangering continuity and quality of patient care, warns RCGP chairGP access debate must shift to emphasise quality as well as speed, warns RCGPImproving access and continuity in general practice - a 2018 Nuffield Trust report Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.

The National Health Service faces what's described as the “greatest workforce crisis” in its history due to severe levels of understaffing.A report by the cross-party Health and Social Care Committee warns poor staffing levels are creating a serious risk to patient safety.It comes as research by the Nuffield Trust shows the NHS in England is short of 12,000 hospital doctors and more than 50,000 nurses and midwives.Projections suggest an extra 475,000 jobs will be needed in the health sector and an extra 490,000 jobs in social care by the early part of the next decade.So what's causing the crisis? Pay concerns, Covid, Brexit, workplace sexism and bullying are all being mentioned as contributing factors.As patient waiting lists stretch over the horizon, what can be done to solve this workforce crisis - and what will happen if it's not fixed?We're joined by Alan Lofthouse, a former paramedic and now a Unison union national officer, who reveals how emergency crews report ambulance waiting times outside hospitals of up to 20 hours.The Leader also discusses the points made in the Health and Social Care Committee report, the impact of staff shortages on morale and whether the Conservative rivals battling for leadership have a good offer to improve the NHS.

The covid-19 pandemic has stretched healthcare staff like never before. As part of the 2022 Nuffield Trust summit, The BMJ hosted a roundtable discussion looking at why workers leave the NHS and how staff wellbeing and retention can be improved. Joining us to discuss are: Kamran Abbasi, editor in chief, The BMJ Billy Palmer, senior fellow, Nuffield Trust Lucina Rolewicz, researcher, Nuffield Trust Mark Britnell, global healthcare expert and senior partner, KPMG International Neil Greenburg, consultant occupational and forensic psychiatrist, King's College London's centre for military health research Rose Penfold, National Institute for Clinical Research academic clinical fellow in geriatrics Rammya Mathew, GP and quality improvement lead for Islington GP Federation Partha Kar, diabetes consultant and NHS England's national advisor for diabetes Danny Mortimer, chief executive of NHS Employers The Nuffield Trust report, "The Long Goodbye" which was discussed in this roundtable is available here - https://www.nuffieldtrust.org.uk/resource/the-long-goodbye-exploring-rates-of-staff-leaving-the-nhs-and-social-care
The health service is clearly in a jam in the wake of covid - so why have Sajid Javid's plans for ‘a year of reform' antagonised some managers, GPs and other staff?' We get into some of the challenges faced by the health secretary, how to balance ambition with NHS recovery and why the NHS doesn't want to go back to how things were before covid hit. This week Annabelle and Dave are joined by Helen Buckingham, director of strategy at the Nuffield Trust, Richard Sloggett, programme director of the Future Health Research Centre.
In this episode the team talks about the latest GP appointment data and what it tells us about exactly how hard general practice is working. They ask, is the government starting to recognise the important role general practice plays? And they take a look at new government legislation around pay transparency in general practice.In our interview this week Emma speaks to Dr Rebecca Rosen, a GP in London and senior fellow at health think tank the Nuffield Trust, about continuity care. We discuss what GPs and their teams can do if they want to increase levels of continuity of care in their practice.And finally our regular good news spot looks at a social media campaign where patients showed their support for their GP.This episode is presented by GPonline editor Emma Bower who is joined by our news editor Nick Bostock and senior reporter Luke Haynes.

For decades, social care has been in need of reform.Last week, the Prime Minister announced an extra tax to fund social care in England, and help the NHS recover after the pandemic, and changes to the way the social care system works.In this episode, featuring Natasha Curry, Deputy Director of Policy at the Nuffield Trust, and Ben Zaranko, IFS economist, we dig into the new announcement, what it means, whether it will work and how it will affect people's care.Support the IFS: https://www.ifs.org.uk/about/membership/individual See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
One year ago Table Talk Podcast host Stefan Gates sat down with members of the food industry and the UK government to hear about the new strategy that was intended to tackle a growing obesity epidemic in the country. One year on, what impact have the measures had, what will be adapted for the future, and is the strategy working? Joining us to dissect the benefits of the UK obesity strategy, and to find out what further changes will be needed if we're to become a healthier country in the future, are Dr. Jennifer Dixon, CEO, Health Foundation and Anna Tayler, Executive Director, Food Foundation.

Ageing populations, rising care costs and COVID-19 have placed significant strain on an already struggling social care sector. Since assuming office in 2019, the Prime Minister has repeatedly promised to present a comprehensive plan to reform social care, the latest in a long line of governments to promise to tackle the issue.So, how should we think about reforming social care? How should we pay for it? And what can we learn from other countries?This week Paul speaks with Andrew Dilnot, Warden of Nuffield College Oxford and author of the Dilnot Report on Social Care, set up under David Cameron's coalition government, and Natasha Curry, Deputy Director of Policy at the Nuffield Trust and expert on social care.Support the IFS: https://www.ifs.org.uk/about/membership/individual See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This round table, recorded at the nuffield summit 2021, asks what does following the science actually mean - do ministers understand the nuance of the science in the pandemic, and how does uncertainty get interpreted through the lens of ideology and the power of compelling stories. Taking part are: Kamran Abassi, executive editor of The BMJ Partha Kar, consultant in diabetes and endocrinology Deborah Cohen, health correspondent for BBC Newsnight Tom Sasse, associate director at the Institute for Government Christina Pagel, professor of Operational Research at University College London Matt Morgan, intensive care consultant Andy McKeon, chair of the Nuffield Trust Isobel Hardman, assistant editor of The Spectator Mary Dixon-Woods, director of This Institute Ben Page, chief executive of Ipsos MORI Alexandra Freeman, executive director of the Winton Centre for Risk & Evidence Communication Will Moy, chief executive of Full Fact Nigel Edwards, chief executive of the Nuffield Trust
To mark one year of the Health Check podcast we’re joined by special guest Nigel Edwards, chief executive of the Nuffield Trust, who shares his expert insight on the biggest operational, cultural and strategic changes the NHS has gone through during the pandemic. We discuss whether mutual aid and breaking down professional barriers are here to stay and how the growing cancer waiting lists could take the shine off the NHS for the public. Featuring Ben Clover, Annabelle Collins and James Illman.
Teaser: How much should we spend on people with frailty versus people with mental health problems? Unless we can answer questions like this, we cannot have high value universal healthcare. Alain Enthoven, is mistakenly blamed for suggesting to Margaret Thatcher that the NHS should introduce the purchaser provider split- actually his Nuffield Trust paper advocated the development of accountable care organisations. However, this book is about the work he and colleagues did on creating programme budgets in the Department of Defense (sic) in the US. Originally published in 1971 this is a book of enduring value and lasting relevance. Enthoven details the application, history, and controversies surrounding the Planning, Programming, and Budgeting System.
The pandemic will impact the way healthcare is delivered for years to come. At the same time as preparing for a possible second wave, the NHS also has to work its way through a backlog of delayed appointments and treatments. Waiting lists could top 10 million people this year.David Aaronvicth asks the experts what Covid-19 has done to healthcare in the UK and how can it recover:Journalist Chris Cook specialises in the public sector and is an editor and partner at Tortoise Media Rachel Schraer is a health reporter for BBC News Dr Jennifer Dixon is the chief executive of the Health Foundation Professor Carol Propper is a health economist at Imperial College London and President of The Royal Economics Society Nigel Edwards is chief executive of the Nuffield Trust an independent health think tank.Producers: Kirsteen Knight, Beth Sagar Fenton, Joe Kent Studio manager: Neva Missirian Editor: Jasper Corbett.
On this podcast, Professor Naomi Chambers discuses her observations of NHS leadership behaviours during COVID-19. Naomi's wide range of teaching, advisory and research interests include healthcare leadership, organisation culture, diversity and inclusion, board governance, clinicians in management, health care commissioning, health policy and management in Europe, primary care, patient and public involvement, emergency planning, e-health and clinical costing. Her publications and media profile reflect this breadth of interests. Naomi is currently co-director of Leadership & Management in the Higher Specialist Healthcare Scientist Training (HSST) Programme. Previous teaching roles have included programme director for the Nye Bevan executive programme for aspiring NHS board directors, university lead for NHS Leadership Academy programmes, and Director of Executive Education. Outward facing roles have included President of the European Health Management Association and vice chair of NHS North Staffordshire Clinical Commissioning Group. Two recent research projects have involved leading a team investigating changes in board level leadership in hospitals in England following the publication of the Francis Report into the failings at the Mid Staffordshire NHS Hospital Foundation Trust (completed 2018) and the evaluation of the content, applications and impacts of the NHS well-led framework on behalf of CQC and NHSI (completed 2020). Current projects include research for a book on organising care round patients to be published by Manchester University Press, a study on long serving NHS CEOs on what makes them tick and what keeps them going, and women's experiences of urogynaecology services. Drawing from her research, teaching and advisory experience, Naomi has an ongoing working relationship with a number of NHS boards and senior leadership teams supporting them to develop to meet the challenges of today's and tomorrow's health and care systems. She is also in close collaborative contact with colleagues working in national regulatory and oversight bodies, and with independent policy organisations such as the Kings Fund, Nuffield Trust and Health Foundation.

Nigel Edwards, Chief Executive of the health think tank the Nuffield Trust, joins Dr Margaret McCartney for this special programme about the challenges of remote and rural healthcare. Margaret travels by boat from Mallaig to the Hebridean islands of Eigg, Muck, Rum and Canna off the north west coast of Scotland where, after 100 years the islanders lost their resident doctor. When it was clear there wouldn't be a replacement, the islanders and NHS Highland instead opted for a radical new healthcare model. Taking inspiration from indigenous tribes in Alaska, the NUKA model has been adapted for the Small Isles and it is very different, with a high level of community engagement. The idea is that local people own their own healthcare rather than having healthcare delivered to them, as passive recipients. Local people are trained up in first aid and become salaried Rural Health and Social Care Workers. They are the eyes and ears of healthcare professionals. Volunteers also act as First Responders coordinating helicopter and lifeboat rescues in emergencies. Dr Margaret McCartney joins GP Dr Geoff Boyes on his weekly visit to Eigg and discovers how the community has adapted to this new way of delivering care. She hears from Gill McVicar, former NHS Highland Director of Transformation and Camille Dressler, chair of the Small Isles Community Council, about how the reorganisation was managed; from Julie McFadzean about the new health and rural health and social care worker role; from Sheena Kean, the Eigg healthcare practice manager who makes sure everything runs smoothly and to Eigg residents about how they think their new healthcare model is working.

More doctors are choosing to retire early, doctors who take career breaks find it hard to return to practice, and doctors at all stages of their careers are frustrated by the lack of support given to training and development in today's NHS. Each year the BMJ holds a roundtable discussion at the Nuffield Summit - where health leaders come together to talk about the NHS. We wanted to know what more the NHS can do to provide fulfilling careers for staff and to improve support for doctors who want to keep working and those seeking to return to practice. Taking part in the discussion were: Tom Moberly - UK editor for The BMJ Rahkee Shah - paediatric registrar Ronny Cheung - consultant general paedatrician Claire Lemer - consultant paediatrician Candace Imison - Director of Workforce Strategy at the Nuffield Trust James Morrow - GP partner
New Zealand has the highest death rate for teenagers and young people among 19 of the world's developed, wealthy countries.It also ranks poorly in terms of adolescent suicide, pregnancies and deaths related to cancer and respiratory illness, according to British healthcare think tank Nuffield Trust.Neuroscience educator Nathan Wallis told Kerre McIvor that these results are concerning. "We've got this idea that New Zealand is this wonderful, clean, green, beautiful nation that is a wonderful place to raise children, so this paints a different picture."New Zealand had by far the highest mortality rate for people aged 10 to 24 years - around 35 deaths per 100,000 people.This was driven by its relatively high youth suicide rate and youth road toll. In these areas, New Zealand ranked near or at the bottom of the rankings at nearly every level - early teens, late teens and over-20s.Wallis said a number of issues are to blame for the shocking statistics and that it won't just be one thing.He said one of the challenges facing New Zealand is our childcare, which has moved away from a focus on 'free play' and resiliance. "In the last fifteen years, we've wanted to teach our three, four, five-year-olds literacy and numeracy instead of doing the free play that would build up resilience, so I think that's one factor."Wallis also said that research shows that having a parent at home during the first year of life has also eroded away.“You're essentially data-gathering in the first thousand days of life. The best way to maximise that potential is to have an at-home parent.”He adds that the exam system needs to be re-examined, as weekly assessments put New Zealand students in a constant state of anxiety.Young Māori men are over-represented in these statistics, which Wallis puts down to racism and ignorance.“A lot of the reason we have such a negative rate is because we are still quite a racist country, and it's quite hard to be Māori and have high self-esteem in this country."We don't teach Te Reo at schools. We don't learn about New Zealand history. There's a prevailing view in the country that Maori are inferior."The study's broad definition of adolescence - 10 to 24 years - is based on scientific evidence that humans' brains are not fully mature until at least 24."It is quite distressing on the health front," said Associate Professor Joe Boden, who works on the 30-year-old Christchurch Health and Development Study. "This is where you are developing life habits, essentially," said Boden. "Diet, exercise - these things get established during this period."So it's really important that you're able to find ways to help kids through this in a healthy manner. And comparing ourselves internationally, we're not doing very well."The British study creates a different picture of adolescence in New Zealand to various longitudinal studies, which broadly show that young people are thriving."The majority of kids do have some problems here and there, but they generally grow up pretty healthy and happy and they're well-educated," said Boden."So it doesn't shake my belief that New Zealand is a good place to grow up. But in terms of rare events or severe outcomes, we're not doing particularly well in those areas as you can see from general mortality, years of life lost, and smoking and obesity."New Zealand fared better in some areas, in particular the number of youth not in employment or training (NEET), and diabetes rates, where it placed in the middle of the pack.Out of all the indicators in the report, suicide was possibly the most concerning. While most indicators were trending downwards, the youth suicide rate in New Zealand had been steady for 12 years.The Government hopes to address this through its Mental Health Inquiry, which is specifically looking at the existing work on suicide prevention.A separate study, released today by the Children's Commissioner and Oranga Tamariki, found that most Ne...

Date: June 23, 2011 Featuring: Catherine Craig, LMSW, MPA, Director of Health Integration – National Programs, Common Ground Maria Raven, MD, MPH, MSc, Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine, New York University School of Medicine Geraint Lewis, MA, MSc, FRCP, FFPH, Public Health Physician and Senior Fellow, The Nuffield Trust, UK There isn’t a health care provider anywhere in the US who hasn’t witnessed the disconnect between a patient with multiple health and social needs and the systems available to help that individual. The gap between what’s needed and what’s available (and what’s paid for) is often staggering. Stories abound of doctors and nurses and social workers painstakingly trying to patch together services that might function as an alternative to the hospital’s emergency department, get a prescription filled, get someone a hot meal… and on it goes. There are communities in the US and other countries that have worked for years to do things better but, wherever you go, patients with multiple illnesses combined with a lot of instability in their lives present challenges far beyond the capability and current design of most health care systems.Nothing like a challenge! WIHI has been tracking some timely work and research that goes by such exotic names as “predictive modeling” and “virtual wards” — or is as basic as care coordination and supportive housing. WIHI host Madge Kaplan talks with key experts leading the way in these areas to discuss new ways to work with patients to address underlying needs and manage chronic health problems that lessen dependence on expensive health care services. The good news is that wherever new models are being tried, they’re making a real, tangible difference.Related information to this WIHI program includes a new IHI white paper on innovations in care coordination, co-authored by Catherine Craig, and Atul Gawande’s article, “The Hot Spotters," from the January 2011 New Yorker.

It seems the race to implement telehealth is on – the UK government's response to its Whole System Demonstrator pilot has been very positive. But has it been over-hyped? We find out from Jennifer Dixon, Director of the Nuffield Trust, which has evaluated the pilot. Also, alcohol: beneficial or detrimental? Evidence shows it depends on what aspects of health you look at. Research published on bmj.com this week adds to the picture by looking at the association between alcohol consumption and the risk of developing arthritis. Alicja Wolk, professor of nutritional epidemiology at the Karolinska Institutet, explains her study.
