This book provides an original analysis of the trajectory of health
policy reform in the United Kingdom from the beginning of the
‘Thatcher reforms’ in the 1980s right up to the latest changes
in England in 2022. Rooted in political science and health policy
analysis, it tackles key arguments around the ‘new integration’
of the NHS since 2015, what the new and emerging NHS structure
represents, the UK’s poor response to the Covid-19 crisis, and
the future threat to a comprehensive public NHS. It includes
significant new material on what has happened since 2015, such as
the politics of the Covid-19 pandemic, the effects of Brexit, and
the conundrum of ‘social care’. The book is a scholarly and
polemical analysis from an expert who has studied the politics of
health services for more than forty years. It will be a key
resource for students, academics and policy makers.
