Devolution and divergence in UK health policies Dr Jennifer Dixon Director Nuffield Trust IPPR 2 February 2009

Background Divergence in policy in NHS has always existed Before 1998 fundamental political unity Now distinctive trajectories

Scotland High status medical leaders closely connected to policy Communitarian values Main battles between Labour and SNP

Scotland Purchaser-provider split abolished Integration of system into 14 geographical health boards – No payment by results – No competition (no plurality of providers) – No practice-based commissioning Focus: chronic disease; public health and reducing inequalities; waiting(Kerr 2005) Free long term personal care Prescription charges reduced (£5 -1/4/08)

Levers: Scotland professionalism* 5 provider performance Central directive Regulation MarketLocal accountability Professionalism * Scott Greer

Wales Main battles between labour and Plaid Cymru Communitarian values

Wales 2003 reorganisation of commissioning into 22 local health boards co-terminous with local authorities Emphasis on public health and reducing inequalities Purchaser-provider split maintained, but current Labour-Plaid Cymru coalition (2007) committed abolishing it Number of Health Boards and Trusts to reduce No PbR, no foundation trusts Prescription charges abolished 1 April 2007

Levers: Wales limits of localism* 8 provider performance Central directive Regulation MarketLocal accountability Professionalism * Scott Greer

Northern Ireland Politics: sectarian representation Little interest in health Change slow

Northern Ireland Purchaser- provider split remained GP fundholding abolished only UK government began to make decisions Since restoration of devolution that halted that change Now plans to merge all 4 Health Boards into one and reduce the number of Trusts to five Managers free to make decisions (unless large)

Levers: N. Ireland permissive managerialism* 11 provider performance Central directive Regulation MarketLocal accountability Professionalism * Scott Greer

England Politics: (new) Labour major changes Purchaser-provider split Autonomy for providers, plurality, competition and choice, PbR PCT and practice-based commissioning Regulation Devolution of power Central directive

Levers: England markets into managerialism* 13 provider performance Central directive Regulation MarketLocal accountability Professionalism * Scott Greer

Comparing NHS performance across the UK Sensitive Data comparisons not straightforward (who is interested in VFM across the UK?) Old debates about level of funding for need (Barnet Formula) (Add in Scotts graphs on funding and morbidity)
