About Time To Think Differently
It is time to think differently about health and social care. Although good progress has been made in improving NHS performance in the past decade, the health and social care system faces unprecedented funding pressures and significant future challenges. Fundamental change is needed to respond to the needs of an ageing population, the changing burden of disease and rising patient expectations.
Time to Think Differently is a programme of work from The King's Fund aimed at stimulating debate about the changes needed for the NHS and social care to meet the challenges of the future. By engaging others and promoting discussion, we hope to generate new thinking about innovative ways of delivering high-quality care and support health and social care leaders in their decision-making.
