Abstract
  • Health care commissioners will need to deliver a sustainable system in the face of the most challenging financial and organisational environment seen in decades. They must shift the current emphasis on acute and episodic care towards prevention, self-care and integrated and well co-ordinated care to cope with an aging population and increased prevalence of chronic diseases. And they will need to direct resources to the patients with greatest need and redress the 'inverse care law' by which those who need the most care often receive the least. This document sets out ten priorities for action to help commissioners transform the health care system.
