Reducing health inequalities is a matter of fairness and social justice
Action is needed to tackle the social gradient in health –Proportionate universalism
Action on health inequalities requires action across all the social determinants of health
Reducing health - cost of inaction Beyond economic growth to well-being
2
Marmot Review (2010) - Key themes
Marmot Update and Review Clear inequalities evident in children’s development, difficult to know if this is
worse because DfE keep changing the measures. – Improvement in early years provision, parenting support, reduction of child poverty – Stable measures of development to help track progress.
Nearly a quarter of households do not have enough money to live on and this has been increasing. More than half of those in poverty are in work. – Government to identify policy lead for ensuring sufficient incomes, with plan of action. – Employers to take responsibility for ensuring that work pays sufficiently.
Inequalities worse for men than women– More focus on men’s health needed
North/south divide– More investment in the north, focus on affordability in the south.
Unemployment higher than pre recession levels and five fold increase in JSA claimants on for longer than 12 months. – Action to support all members of society into good work.
Significant regional variation – Learn from variation - poorly performing local authorities to learn from local authorities
with similar deprivation levels who are doing better.– Local authorities to utilise evidence based practices, see evidence briefings IHE
authored for PHE.

Determinants of Health

Attributing Contribution- Kings Fund briefingA number of studies have attempted to estimate how the broader determinants of health impact on our health.

Mental illness is 'as bad for life expectancy as smoking', experts warn
Nut eaters may have

expectancy
Life expectancy gap between men and women
narrows to less than four years as Dorset is
revealed as the place to grow old.
Life expectancy a powerful measure of inequality
Life expectancy – inequalities of specific groups
9
• Life expectancy is lower for men than women.
• Life expectancy is lower in lower income groups.
• Life expectancy is lower in some BME groups and certain vulnerable groups e.g. people with mental health problems, people with learning disabilities.

Not just single conditions, many people have multi-morbidities – Study of Scottish Patients

• The prevalence of multi-morbidity increased (substantially) with age.
• For people living in the most deprived areas the onset of multi-morbidity occurred 10-15 years earlier than people living in the least deprived areas.
• Mental health was not only associated with physical illness but the presence of a mental health disorder increased as the number of physical morbidities increased.

Co-occurrence of risk factors
• Study by Kings Fund analysed risk factors (smoking, harmful drinking, poor diet and low physical activity rate) Data from the 2003 and 2008 Health Survey for England.
• The percentage of adults engaged in three or all four of the behaviours had declined.
• However the rate of decline was less amongst the most deprived areas and amongst people with the lower level of education; and that this would act to increase inequalities in health outcomes. factors

The Cost of Emergency Admissions

Costs measured in PBR cost charged to CCGs
Deprivation measured as WSx deciles (tenths of our local population)
