Great to welcome Lord Ara darzi, along with @wesstreeting and many of the other @DHSCgovuk ministers to The King's Fund this morning. They joined our #KFAnnual conference delegates to hear Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer deliver his speech on the Darzi review.

Want to understand more about the #GP contract and GP funding? We've got you covered....

After the 2019 GP contract framework expired this year, the Department of Health and Social Care published arrangements for 2024/25. In this explainer we delve into the detail of the arrangements, and what they mean for GPs and the wider health system. kingsfund.org.uk/insight-and-an…

What’s the main pressure on #socialcare? The latest @1adass survey suggests it’s that the ‘boundary’ between social care and the NHS is shifting. People with more complex needs are now ending up in social care because of changes in NHS practice. Thread 🔽 adass.org.uk/documents/adas…

Oh no. A royal commission would be just another way of avoiding action. The problems in #socialcare are clear and so are the solutions; what’s lacking is the political will. @UKLabour has a majority of 172 seats. It should use it to begin long-term reform. thetimes.com/article/1bd906…


Was it a big deal that Wes Streeting went to a GP practice, not a hospital on his first visit? Well, yes as my excellent colleague @hellomccracken explains kingsfund.org.uk/insight-and-an…


There’s lots of detail in the #GP patient survey which needs more consideration and clearly much to improve on, but clinical and admin staff should take heart in the quality of care they are providing despite huge demand.

There are 'glimmers of hope' in this year's GP Patient Survey, an annual survey of patients' experiences of primary care. Read @BeccyA's response in full ⬇️ kingsfund.org.uk/insight-and-an…

Thinking about organisational development in your #GP practice or PCN? Here's an excellent, self guided, FREE, course from @TheKingsFund colleagues which could be just up your street. @sheinazs @PMA_UK_ @rankine

Are you starting out in an organisational development role or interested in organisational development change? Our new free course covers the basics of OD theory & explores the dynamics of organisational life that make change and improvement challenging. kingsfund.org.uk/leadership-dev…

It's positive to see @wesstreeting visit a GP practice in his new role and re-commit to shifting more care into the community. Our report from earlier in the year, explored what might need to be done to achieve this vision. Read it here: kingsfund.org.uk/insight-and-an…

Today Secretary of State for Health and Social Care @WesStreeting and @NHSEngland Chief Executive @AmandaPritchard were shown around Abbey Medical Centre by @Dr_Ellie He heard from patients and staff and pledged to bring back the family doctor as he fixes the broken NHS.

Excellent blog examining @wesstreeting statement that NHS is broken. "it creates a platform for reform – but with a lower-case ‘r’..., SoS is crafting an argument that more of the same will not work. NHS needs to do more to become prevention-focused, community-centred service."

The new Secretary of State for Health and Social Care used his first statement in office to say that ‘the NHS is broken’. So, is it? In this new blog, @SivaAnandaciva considers the evidence. kingsfund.org.uk/insight-and-an…

"I would much rather see the government signal trust in general practice by putting as much of the budget as possible in the core contract and limiting the number of disconnected small funding pots" @BeccyA Senior Fellow in Health Policy @TheKingsFund bmj.com/content/385/bm…


This work looks really interesting, particularly for #PCNs thinking about how they work with communities @KChauhanUK @rankine

🆕We gathered examples of innovative approaches to working with communities in the health & care system. And explored how practitioners can enrich their own work by embedding community power. newlocal.org.uk/publications/c… Here’s a short 🧵 on the highlights

There's been a lot of discussion about whether #PCNs should be allowed to use #ARRS funding for GPs and practice nurses. I think it's the wrong solution.
