Briefing / Health inequalities: establishing the case for change

This is the first introductory briefing on health inequalities produced by the HFMA working with NHS England. It is aimed at raising awareness and providing a useful background on why health inequalities are important, and how finance staff can support the case for change (both within their organisation and across the local system). The areas covered are the financial, economic case for change, the moral and social issues, and their significance to different population groups in patient experience and outcomes. You will also learn about the practical components that will be helpful for finance staff in supporting the agenda of prevention and reducing health inequalities.
