Countdown hits ONE WEEK. The Final Report of the IPPR Commission on Health and Prosperity will be the first major schematic for health policy through the next parliament - a direct submission to the health mission. Expect lots on why health is an economic imperative, why health policy status quo is broken, and practical things we can now do to revitalise health and prosperity.

The Autumn Budget is likely to be a critical juncture for health policy, setting the tone for the scope and speed of future reforms and investments. In this blog, I delve into the key events and decisions leading up to this pivotal moment and offer insights into what the Autumn Budget may mean for the future of health policy in the UK. As we head into a challenging winter, the question remains of what to expect from the budget for the health service, and whether it will go beyond basic survival to enable Streeting to begin his planned reform. And despite the recent optimistic notions from Government on industry collaboration to ensure a thriving sector, what will be left for the life sciences? Ultimately, the Government need this Budget to serve as a ‘reset Budget’, with the scale and speed of public service reform acting as the political imperative the Government must deliver on to win the next election. However, in reality, it is anticipated to be a Budget that is unlikely to offer anything but difficult choices and a reminder of the challenging inheritance the Government faced coming into power.

This Canadian report on the performance of universal health care countries makes grim reading for New Zealand. We rank first in terms of how much we spend on healthcare (as a % of GDP). But we don't get great health outcomes for that spend. We have the second worst infant mortality (figure 7a). And our "treatable mortality" - deaths from causes that can be mainly avoided through timely and effective health care interventions - (figure 7b) is only a whisker better than the average for OECD countries. Something isn't working in our system....

It’s really obvious that to improve health outcomes in the population means investing in helping people stay well; that is additionally challenging for those with socioeconomic complexity. Our health funding constructs are not set up to incentivise prioritisation of maintaining wellness in community. Not an easy problem to fix but one worth collective investment across state, federal, non-profits and private’s to invest time to un-pick the complexity and simplify funding to promote wellness.
A new Victoria University report reveals chronic diseases are escalating in disadvantaged communities across Australia. The report further highlights the urgent need to invest in preventive health. While governments recognise the pervasive impact of poor health, healthcare is too often seen is a cost to be managed rather than a strategic investment. A major attitude shift is needed in Australian health policy. This is what we call for in our latest Vision for Australia's Health. Our Vision offers a blueprint to transform our health system into one that values prevention as much as treatment. Preventing chronic disease and other health issues significantly reduces healthcare costs and alleviates the burden on our health system, while also driving economic growth and productivity.
