Summary:
The nation’s health challenges have reached historic proportions, and change is needed.
Led by an understanding that the boldest health reforms only come when there is a strong social and economic case for them, this commission has spent the last three years testing one simple idea: that better health is Britain’s greatest untapped route to prosperity.
In this final report, we find that better health is exactly the medicine our economy needs. Reporting on three years of analysis, qualitative work, commissioner debate and stakeholder engagement, we find that better health could help meet the UK’s biggest, specific economic challenges.
This report’s central contention is that better health will only be possible if we move from a sickness model of health policy to a health creation one.
