People living with chronic pain, musculoskeletal conditions and mental health problems often experience fragmented care. This rapid evidence review explores how integrated, person-centred primary and community care can better support their physical, psychological and social needs.
In this document, we present seven principles for equitable implementation of interventions, services and programmes. They reflect patterns in the evidence to help decision-makers understand what works and apply this while also taking into account contextual factors, such as the organisational landscape and governance structures.

In the third and final blog of our three-part series, we explore how central digital and data are to the ambitions of the 10 Year Health Plan for England — and what that means for health inequalities. From the NHS App as the new “front door” to more systematic use of social risk data and patient-reported measures, we examine where the choices made now will determine whether digital transformation narrows gaps or widens them.
