The new 10-Year Health Plan for England promises to shift more care from hospitals into the community, but history shows how hard this ambition is to deliver.
This new report from the Nuffield Trust looks to Denmark and Ireland, two countries pursuing bold reforms to rebalance care, to understand what it really takes and provide a set of lessons for England.
The findings draw on 24 interviews and a structured review of policy documents and literature from Denmark and Ireland. Aimed at system leaders, policymakers and the government.
