A decade of austerity in Wales?

A decade of austerity in Wales?

Health and social care services across the United Kingdom are facing a huge financial
challenge over the next decade – the question is whether they can respond by delivering
more efficient and effective care and, if so, how best to make this happen. A Nuffield
Trust work programme is examining the scale of the longer-term financial challenge and
how it can be met.

This report, A Decade of Austerity in Wales?, replicates previous Nuffield Trust modelling
to calculate the shortfall facing the NHS in England, to study the period up to 2025/26.
It explores the reasons for rising pressures on the NHS in Wales, finding that the ageing
population, rising hospital admissions for people with chronic disease, and increases in
the cost of providing health care, mean that pressures on the Welsh NHS are set to grow.

This is an independent report, commissioned by the Welsh Government.
