CEO of NHS to appear before the Health and Social Care Committee
MPs will ask the senior leadership of NHS England whether the NHS is well placed to implement the Government’s three healthcare shifts, in an evidence session at 9:30am on Wednesday 29 January.
Meeting details
The Committee will examine the relationship between NHS England and ICSs (integrated care systems) and how the current system can support the Government’s ambition to shift care from hospital to community.
The session will see the Committee question the CEO of the NHS, Amanda Pritchard, and its CFO, Julian Kelly, alongside the Chief Nursing Officer for England, Duncan Barton.
MPs will pose questions on the Budget’s funding allocations for the NHS and on productivity within the NHS, as well as what the panel hopes to see from the 10 Year Health Plan.
The session will also be an opportunity for the Committee to explore the NHS’ approach to tackling waiting lists and winter pressures.
