Room
Insight Theatre - Exhibition Hall
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.
