Areas of discussion
In the first session the questions will cover the impact of devolution on health and social care in Greater Manchester including how funding is now distributed differently around the system, the effect on workforce planning and what benefits the devolution has produced in integrating health and social care services.
The second session will focus on the technological developments that will have the greatest long-term impact on NHS sustainability, how the NHS can be encouraged to adopt new technologies and how better use of patient data could improve efficiency in the NHS.
The final session will focus on prevention and how preventative and early intervention can help achieve a healthy population and reduce overall costs. The session will also cover what can be done to strengthen the approach to prevention and early intervention in mental health.
