In this bite-sized episode of HFMAtalk, Steve Brown, Editor of the HFMA magazine Healthcare Finance, joins the podcast to provide insight on the latest news stories and wider challenges facing the NHS. The NHS faces severe financial pressures, including government demands to cut running costs and balance budgets. But those running cost reductions will mean redundancies, which need to be funded if the service is going to deliver its breakeven promise. This episode explores the impact on integrated care boards, the uncertainty for staff, and the urgent need for clarity from NHS England on funding and timelines.
