In a not to be missed keynote, Richard Murray, CEO of the King’s Fund, will set out the big picture on the key trends driving the NHS, spanning patient demands and levels of satisfaction with the service, key capacity constraints, trends in the workforce and the causes of spiralling waiting lists. Richard will suggest how some of these might be alleviated through digital and data and look ahead to how the NHS will likely be a key battleground at the next General Election.
