4. Transparent data on racial inequities is essential for real change. There must be commitment to turning good quality data into insight, and insight into positive action for change. #RHO_AntiRacism

The NHS may be broken, but @commonwealthfnd Mirror Mirror ‘24 report is a helpful reminder that it’s all relative.
I returned from #Harkness 🇺🇸 feeling grateful to work in and be a patient of the NHS. There’s lots to fix, but I still feel that way.

The U.S. health care system is failing to keep Americans healthy, ranking last in a new @commonwealthfnd report that compares health in 10 countries. U.S. performance is esp poor when it comes to health equity, access, efficiency, and health outcomes.

Same old sad song. Most disappointing is that we spend the most money but have the least to show for it, and the solutions are staring us right in the face. How much longer will we accept this? @commonwealthfnd

In keeping with the women’s health theme today- why is women’s health centered in so many policy/political conversations right now? Because we’re doing it wrong! New Intl comparisons out today. commonwealthfund.org/publica…

I’m pleased to see reform of the Mental Health Act feature in The King’s speech - a unique opportunity to embed mental health equity of access, experience and outcomes for all.

Good news -- @CMSGov just announced that 18 states will receive Medicaid + school-based services grants.
Schools are a critical piece of the puzzle to promote the good health and mental health of children/adolescents.

THREAD: We've been working on @UCL_SPROCKET to improve services for children with complex health needs.
As part of that, we worked with parents to capture some of their lived experience in 3 animations.
This one highlights how *everything* is a fight - it's exhausting.
