Session type
Mini-theatre session
A chance to contribute to NHS England’s work to produce a national strategy to improve outcomes for children and young people through evidence-based interventions.
Announced in the 10 Year Health Plan as a way to support consistent, high quality, and high value care across a care pathway or for a cohort, an Modern Service Framework will:
- Be developed in partnership with a range of stakeholders across the system
- Define long term outcomes (over a ten year period) for specific conditions
- Identify evidence-based interventions, and support uptake through clear standards and implementation plans
- Move to a digital by default pathway including highlight areas where new medicines or technologies exist or are needed, helping to accelerate innovation and improvement.
In this session, NHS England will share:
- What an MSF is and how we will develop one for children and young people
- The key challenges we are looking to address
- What we have heard through early engagement with children, young people, families, clinicians and system partners
- How insight from our engagement is shaping our emerging moonshot – the ambitious vision of what we want to achieve for children and young people’s health in the next 10 years
-
What this means for you and how you can support.
