\nIn recent days The BMJ has been filled with commentary and debate about the future of the NHS<\/a>. NHS England\u2019s updated delivery plan calls for many changes in the way healthcare is provided and the priority attached to specific services. Without extra money, this is a zero sum game. More resources devoted to integrated care, extended hours for GPs, and improved mental health and cancer services mean fewer resources for other things.<\/p>\n

\nThis event <\/a>is for the leaders of primary care, community care, mental health, acute hospital, social care, housing, voluntary and public health services who are responsible for implementing the changes proposed in sustainability and transformation plans<\/a>.<\/p>\n
