On the day of the 70th birthday of the NHS, we were delighted to announce our latest and most exciting development (and the most important outcome) yet … HEALTHSPAN!
HEALTHSPAN is a suite of measures, focussing on the currently healthy population, that helps health and care systems measure how long they can support and help us stay healthy, for longer!
We know health systems largely focus on looking after people who are already experiencing ill health. But if health systems put a focus on increasing people’s HEALTHSPAN, people will be spending more of their lives in good health. Not only does giving people more years of good health improve their quality of life, it will also save the NHS money at the same time.
