Healthy Lives, Healthy People

1. Healthy Lives, Healthy People Our strategy for public health in England

2. Our Health and Wellbeing Today • We are living longer than ever before with dramatic changes in the nature of health over the last 150 years • infectious diseases now account for only 2% of deaths • 4 in every 5 deaths occur after the age of 65 • clean air, water, and environmental protection • BUT: success brings new challenges • circulatory diseases account for 34% of deaths • cancers 27% and respiratory diseases 14% • rising prevalence of mental ill-health • persistence of long-term conditions • Lifestyles and behaviours influence our outcomes and inequalities • 21% of the adult population still smoke • 61% of adults are overweight or obese • Fewer than 40% of adults meet physical activity guidelines • 2.4 million adults regularly drink more than recommended

3. A radical new approach The mission is to protect and improve the public’s health, improving the health of the poorest, fastest • Reach out and reach across – addressing the route causes of poor health and wellbeing, reaching out to those who need the most support • Representative – owned by communities and shaped by their needs • Resourced – with ring-fenced funding and incentives to improve • Rigorous – professionally-led, focused on evidence, efficient and effective • Resilient – strengthening protection against current and future threats to health • and will focus on improving the health of the poorest fastest

4. Health and wellbeing throughout life • Starting well: enabling good health in mothers before, during and after pregnancy and good parenting • Developing well: encouraging healthy habits and avoiding harmful behaviours • Growing up well: identifying, treating and preventing mental health problems and creating resilience and self-esteem • Living and working well: choosing lifestyles and behaviours that influence health and productivity • Ageing well: supporting resilience through social networks and activity and providing protection from preventable ill-health

5. A new public health system • Public Health England – a national public health service • A return of public health leadership to Local Government • Professional leadership nationally and locally • Dedicated resources for public health at national and local levels • Focus on outcomes and evidence based practice supported by a strong information & intelligence system • Maintaining a strong relationship with the NHS, social care and civil society • Set out in the Health and Social Care Bill

6. A new public health service- Public Health England • New public health service directly accountable to the Secretary of State for Health with a clear mission to; • Achieve measurable improvements in public health outcomes; and • Provide effective protection from public health threats • It will do this by; • Protecting people from infectious disease and biological, chemical and radiological threats; • Helping people and families to be able to take care of their own health and wellbeing; and • Inspiring challenging and commissioning partners from all sectors.

7. The Director of Public Health, a proposed role • Will be jointly appointed by the relevant local authority and Public Health England and employed the local authority with accountability to locally elected members and through them to the public • Will be the principal adviser on all health matters to the local authority, its elected members and officers, on the full range of local authority functions and their impact on the health of the local population • Will play a key role in the proposed new functions of local authorities in promoting integrated working • Jointly lead the development of the local Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) and the joint health and wellbeing strategy (with Directors of Adult Social Services and Directors of Children’s Services) • Will continue to be an advocate for the public’s health within the community • Will produce an authoritative independent annual report on the health of their local population

8. Key Route for funding Route for accountability Public health funding and commissioning Local communities Local Authorities GP Consortia Providers Department of Health including Public Health England NHS Commissioning Board

9. Public health funding and commissioning- examples

10. Public health funding and commissioning- public health and the NHS • The NHS will commission some public health services, with funding passed from Public Health England. • In addition, the NHS will have an ongoing role in certain services with public health aspects - the Department expects that public health continues to be an integral part of primary care services. • Public health expertise will inform the commissioning of NHS funded services, facilitating integrated pathways of care for patients. This will be underpinned: • locally by ensuring DsPH are able to advise the GP consortia; and • nationally via the relationship between the Secretary of State/ Public Health England and the NHS Commissioning Board. We are consulting on public health commissioning in the funding and commissioning consultation document

11. Public health funding and commissioning- allocations and the health premium • Allocations • From April 2013, Public Health England will allocate ring-fenced budgets, weighted for inequalities, to upper-tier and unitary authorities in local government. Shadow allocations will be issued to LAs in 2012/13, providing an opportunity for planning. • We propose to move to actual allocations from current spend towards the target allocations over a period of time. • We will take independent advice on how the allocations are made. • Health premium • Building on the baseline allocation, LAs will receive an incentive payment, or ‘health premium’, that will depend on the progress made in improving the health of the local population and reducing health inequalities, based on elements of the Public Health Outcomes Framework. • The premium will be simple and driven by a formula developed with key partners, representatives of local government, public health experts and academics. • We are consulting on public health allocations and the health premium in the funding and commissioning consultation document

12. Public health funding and commissioning- accountability • Secretary of State: • resources allocated to the health and social care system as a whole • for strategy and for the legislative and policy framework • for progress against national outcomes • PHE (within DH) accountable to the Secretary of State • Local government • accountable to PHE for spending public health grant according to conditions • accountable to local populations in improving outcomes in health and wellbeing • Health and Wellbeing Boards charged with assessing and agreeing local priorities • Data published in one place by Public Health England enabling national and local democratic accountability for performance against outcomes, enabling: • easy comparison by local areas with others/peers across the country • incentivise improvements • track progress at a national level towards health improvements across the country

13. Public Health Outcomes Framework- the vision The mission: to improve and protect the nation’s health and to improve the health of the poorest, fastest • Domain 1 - Health Protection and Resilience: Protecting the population’s health from major emergencies and remain resilient to harm • Domain 2 - Tackling the wider determinants of health: Tackling factors which affect health and wellbeing and health inequalities • Domain 3 - Health Improvement: Helping people to live healthy lifestyles, make healthy choices and reduce health inequalities • Domain 4 - Prevention of ill health: Reducing the number of people living with preventable ill health and reduce health inequalities • Domain 5 - Healthy life expectancy and preventable mortality: Preventing people from dying prematurely and reduce health inequalities We are consulting on public health outcomes in the outcomes framework consultation document

14. Public Health Outcomes Framework- the indicators • Criteria for how we developed proposed indicators • Are there evidence-based interventions to support this indicator? • Does this indicator reflect a major cause of premature mortality or avoidable ill health? • By improving on this indicator, can you help to reduce inequalities in health? • Will this indicator be meaningful to the broader public health workforce and to the wider public? • Is this indicator likely to have a negative / adverse impact on defined groups (groups sharing a characteristic protected by equalities legislation)? (If yes, can this be mitigated against?) • Is it possible to set measures, SMART objectives against the indicator to monitor progress in both the short and medium term? • Are there existing systems to collect the data required to monitor this indicator; and • Is it available at the appropriate spatial level (e.g. Local Authority)? • Is the time lag for data short, preferably less than one year • Can data be reported quarterly in order to report progress?

15. Public Health Outcomes Framework – alignment with the NHS AND Adult Social Care Public Health Adult Social Care and Public Health: Maintaining good health and wellbeing. Preventing avoidable ill health or injury, including through reablement or intermediate care services and early intervention. NHS and Public Health: Preventing ill health and lifestyle diseases and tackling their determinants. Awareness and early detection of major conditions Adult Social Care and NHS: Supported discharge from NHS to social care. Impact of reablement or intermediate care services on reducing repeat emergency admissions. Supporting carers and involving in care planning. Adult Social Care NHS ASC, NHS and Public Health: The focus of Joint Strategic Needs Assessment: shared local health and wellbeing issues for joint approaches.

16. Transition- a timetable

17. Transition - leadership • Accountability for delivery in 2011/12 will continue to rest with SHAs and PCTs • In addition, SHAs will be responsible for the overall transition process in their regions during 2011/12 with co-ordination and leadership for public health from DH • As part of this, Regional Directors of Public Health (RDsPH) will lead the transition for the public health system at the regional and local level

18. Healthy Lives, Healthy People – consultation • Public Health White Paper • - Role of GPs and GP practices in public health • - Public health evidence • - Professional regulation (independent review) • Outcomes Framework for Public Health • Funding and Commissioning for Public Health Find consultation documents at: www.consultations.dh.gov.uk/healthy-people Respond to consultations at: publichealthengland@dh.gsi.gov.uk

19. The Consultations and Obesity: what is it proposed? Commissioning and Funding: “although programmes to prevent and reduce obesity are public health interventions, bariatric surgery as a treatment intervention should remain with the NHS, and funded by the NHS. Of course, public health advice will need to be part of designing whole pathways of care, from obesity-prevention programmes to bariatric surgery”. “the Department intends to propose in the forthcoming Health and Social Care Bill that local authorities should be the lead commissioner for certain activities which will therefore be funded by the public health budget e.g. weighing and measuring of children (a component of work to tackle childhood obesity)”

20. “Obesity and physical activity programmes, including encouraging active travel, will also become the responsibility of local authorities. Local authorities will be responsible for running the National Child Measurement Programme at the local level, with Public Health England co-ordinating the Programme at the national level. Responsibility for commissioning and funding surgery and drug treatment for obesity will sit with the NHS. Any local initiatives relating to nutrition will be commissioned or undertaken by local authorities. However, Public Health England will be responsible for running national nutrition programmes such as Healthy Start as these are best done at a national level, though with some components, such as supporting applications for Healthy Start (which have to be countersigned by registered healthcare professionals) and distributing Healthy Start vitamins, remaining locally delivered. The Department also proposes that local authorities should have responsibility for workplace health at a local level”.

21. Outcomes: “The Public Health Outcomes Framework is not a performance management tool, and it must not replicate the approach of the previous National Indicator Set. It should be a consistent means of presenting the most relevant, available data on public health for national and local use. Our current thinking is that a small number of the indicators would focus on health improvement relating to the causes of the greatest burden on disease and death (e.g. indicators relating to obesity, smoking, alcohol and level of physical activity). The rest of the indicators would cover other domains of public health, including health protection and preventative services, and reflect the wider determinants of health, to link in the different local services that play a part in delivering health and wellbeing and to hold national Government to account”.

22. Prevalence of healthy weight in 4-5 and 10-11 year olds Prevalence of healthy weight in adults Percentage of adults meeting the recommended guidelines on physical activity (5 x 30 minutes per week) Rate of dental caries in children aged 5 years (decayed, missing or filled teeth) Self reported wellbeing Access and utilisation of green space Cycling participation Breastfeeding initiation and prevalence at 6-8 weeks after birth Prevalence of recorded diabetes Child development at 2 - 2.5 years Health-related quality of life for older people Take up of the NHS Health Check programme by those eligible Mortality rate from all cardiovascular disease (including heart disease and stroke) in persons less than 75 years of age Mortality rate from cancer in persons less than 75 years of age Mortality rate from Chronic Liver Disease in persons less than 75 years of age Work sickness absence rate

23. National Ambition on Obesity • Expected to focus on both child and adult obesity • Expected to energise all partners with a role in achieving the ambition • Expected to describe how the new public health and NHS systems will work for obesity and set out the role of the centre • We know they want to know:- • any related strategies or other work areas where alignment will be critical • the implications for obesity in terms of how the new NHS and public health systems will work
