  • In a major speech, the Prime Minister said the move would bring the NHS "back into democratic control" in a huge reorganisation. It will now be brought under the DHSC.

The article from MSN discusses the potential abolition of NHS England as part of a broader restructuring of the UK's health service. This change is part of the government's response to the Hewitt review, which recommended the creation of a new organization called NHS England and NHS Improvement (NHSE/I) to streamline management and reduce bureaucracy. The proposed changes aim to integrate various aspects of health and care services, potentially affecting how healthcare is delivered, managed, and funded. Key points include the dissolution of NHS England as a separate entity, the integration of commissioning and regulatory functions, and the establishment of new regional structures to better align with local needs. This overhaul could lead to changes in patient care pathways, funding allocations, and the overall governance of the NHS, with implications for both staff and patients in terms of service delivery and administrative efficiency. However, the article also notes that these changes are still in the proposal stage, with public and stakeholder consultations ongoing to refine the approach before any final decisions are made.
