Will Keir Starmer's NHS ten year plan fix the UK's healthcare system? | BBC Newscast

Can the government’s new ten year plan save the NHS?

Today the government published it’s plan to reform the NHS. The government said it will focus on three main changes, shifting from treatment to preventative care, switching to digital health services, and moving to more community care.

Adam spoke to Minister of State for Care Stephen Kinnock about the plans, and Chris joined to unpack the government’s announcement.

Plus, as part of the Newscast Summer Tour, Adam and Chris will be in Sheffield tomorrow at Crossed Wires podcast festival. The festival’s creative director and Radio One breakfast show host Greg James stopped by to give Adam a preview on what’s in store.
