So the actual White Paper has now appeared: gov.uk/government/pub…. I’ll leave the experts to ponder the vagaries of what it might really mean for pooled budgets, single accountability etc, but here are some instant-ish thoughts. 🧵 1/10
2/10 Overall, don’t think anyone will disagree with most of the ambitions but I can’t see many people saying that this is the clear, funded, holistic plan that’s needed to realise the vision. I’d rather have a light shone on these issues than not. But solid action’s better.
3/10 The national priorities in this shared outcomes framework need to articulate what will improve for people with multiple conditions, at the sharp end of inequality. And when local leaders agree their local outcomes, that has to be *with* communities, not just *for* them. 
Today’s #StateOfCare report from @CareQualityComm assesses impact of the pandemic and the challenges for health/care integration. cqc.org.uk/publications/m…
Highlights issues CQC will need to focus on in its new ICS oversight role. Here’s a thread of what leaps out at me 🧵👇 1/15

2/15 Throughout #StateOfCare I can see signs of how closely @CareQualityComm has listened to what @RichmondGroup14 and other voluntary sector organisations have said consistently during the year. Also good to see insight from @ageukcampaigns @Rethink_ @RedCrossPolicy being used.
3/15 Strong message in #StateOfCare about unmet need (a key issue we’ve highlighted) and risk that failure to address social care workforce issues would turn ripple of knock-on effects into a “tsunami”. Good to see call for further discharge funding, noting role of VCSE here.
These reports on NHS leaders’ perceptions from @NHSConfed are always enlightening. Today’s Manifesto For Recovery takes a wide look at recovery issues, with a strong inequalities focus. A quick thread on the bits that jumped out at me. 1/7

2/7 Obviously I’m reading everything @NHSConfed’s published today from the standpoint of the multiple conditions challenge. The framing here speaks to the issues @RichmondGroup14’s recent #YouOnlyHadToAsk report highlighted. richmondgroupofcharities.org.uk/sites/default/…
3/7 Our #YouOnlyHadToAsk report stressed need to close the trust gap between people and services and to work across sectors to tackle inequity, so good to see @NHSConfed saying this:
1/18 I know you love a thread, so here’s one about today’s new report #YouOnlyHadToAsk from the Taskforce on Multiple Conditions, led by @RichmondGroup14 and @ImpUrbanHealth. Hear the voices of people living where multiple conditions meet health inequity. richmondgroupofcharities.org.uk/taskforce-mult…
2/18 My foreword highlights how rarely voices like these are *really* listened to. Yesterday Lord Stevens, in his farewell to @NHSEngland staff, said that the NHS is at its best when it listens hardest. If that’s the case, it needs to be all ears now. We all do. #YouOnlyHadToAsk
3/18 This bit of the foreword is about the power of the voices that don’t shout the loudest. That can be just as true of frontline professionals as it is of the people who told us about deeply personal, sometimes traumatic experiences. Thanks to all of them. #YouOnlyHadToAsk
