CONTRIBUTORS:
Dan Wellings, Senior Policy Fellow, The King's Fund
Anita Charlesworth, Director of Research and Economics at the Health Foundation
Sally Gainsbury, Senior Policy Advisor, The Nuffield Trust
Sir Julian Le Grand, Professor of Public Policy at the London School of Economics
Producer: Serena Tarling.
