Too busy watching knife-edge Parliamentary votes to focus on Twitter? Fear not, here’s our round-up of the best of what you might have missed on health…
- How do we get what we pay for? Read our new report on making the most of the opportunity created by the NHS long-term plan.
- It is right to celebrate #NHS70, but there is a risk of false sentimentality. Pride needs to be channelled into improvements, not nostalgia argues our @sarahewinstone.
- In order to succeed, the NHS long term plan will need to build some consent for disruption. Read our @MBirty’s thoughts.
- MPs have spent nearly 2 days just going through the process of voting in the last year.
- The potential (and the emphasis is on potential) value of different types of AI applications in health.
- Differences in population age structure across Europe.
- The decision to increase NHS spending has been made, but the tough choices remain (via @OBR_UK).
- ICYMI – important interview by @Davewwest with Simon Stevens.
- Given the content of the speech, surely these should have been written on an iPad instead of a flipchart?

- Oops! A healthy vending machine trial actually shifted people towards buying sugary snacks #allresearchfindingsareimportant
- What is it like becoming Secretary of State for Health (and Social Care)? @jtweeterson takes a peek in Matt Hancock’s diary…
- While the new SoS for Health and Social Care was making the case for technology in his first speech, one of his cabinet colleagues was rowing back on gizmos of a different sort…
- Mr Bounce benefits from #socialprescribing
And finally…
- As the academic year draws to a close…should you REALLY ask that question in a meeting?
