    2022  Volume 52, Issue 4, Page(s) 470–479

    Abstract The National Health Service was established in the United Kingdom in 1948 as a universal, comprehensive service free at the point of delivery, which is publicly provided, funded, and accountable. Market incrementalism in England has eroded this system over three decades. The recently enacted Health and Care Act will erode it further. This article first explains briefly how legislation and policy initiatives in 1990, 2003, and 2012 furthered development of the market and private provision of health services, and then describes the main structural changes in the new Act and their implications. England is now moving decisively toward a marketized, two-tier, mixed-funding system with several similarities to the United States.

  5. Article: A critical appraisal of the quality of data submitted by sub-Saharan African cancer registries to GLOBOCAN 2020.

    Abstract Objectives: (a) To critically appraise the quality of data submitted by sub-Saharan African (SSA) cancer registries to GLOBOCAN 2020 and (b) compare the quality of data of the registries common to GLOBOCAN 2008 and 2020.
    Design: Critical appraisal of cancer registry data quality using the Parkin and Bray framework.
    Setting and participants: GLOBOCAN 2020 cancer registry estimates for 46 countries in SSA. Forty-three registries in 31 (SSA) countries were identified from the GLOBCAN 2020 supplementary documents, of which data from 28 registries in 23 sub-Saharan African countries were publicly available.
    Main outcomes measures: Data quality for 15 variables in four domains (comparability, validity, timeliness and completeness) were appraised using the Parkin and Bray framework. Results from the appraisal of GLOBOCAN 2020 sources were compared with previous findings for GLOBOCAN 2008.
    Results: Compared with GLOBOCAN 2008, GLOBOCAN 2020 country coverage had increased from 21 to 31 countries with 15 countries having no established registries. Out of a total possible score of 15 for data quality, 18 of the 28 publicly available GLOBOCAN 2020 registries fulfilled a score of 5 or more compared with seven registries in GLOBOCAN 2008. Of the 17 registries common to GLOBOCAN 2008 and 2020, nine showed an improvement in data quality.
    Conclusion: Country coverage and data quality have improved since GLOBOCAN 2008, however, overall data quality and coverage remain poor. GLOBOCAN 2020 estimates should be used with caution when allocating resources.

  6. Article: Audit of essential medicine listing and registration status of medicines on standard treatment guidelines in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda: Case study of malaria, tuberculosis, hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

    Abstract Objectives: To determine alignment between national and World Health Organization (WHO) treatment recommendations, medicines prioritisation in country's essential medicines list (EML), and medicines availability in National drug register.
    Design: An audit of medicines for malaria, tuberculosis, hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus listed in the national standard treatment guidelines (STGs) of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, as of March 2021, against WHO treatment guidelines, and respective country EML and National drug register.
    Setting: Not applicable.
    Participants: None.
    Main outcome measures: Proportion of medicine in country's STGs that align with WHO treatment recommendations, country's EML and country's drug register.
    Results: Some disease areas had two sets of treatment guidelines - national STGs and disease-specific treatment guidelines (DSGs) developed at different times with different recommended medicines. Both STGs and DSGs included medicines not recommended by the WHO or not listed on the country EML and drug register. Non-WHO-recommended medicines accounted for 17/68 (25%), 10/57 (18%) and 3/30 (10%) of all STG medicines in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, respectively. For tuberculosis, the numbers and proportion of STG medicines listed on the respective national EMLs were 2/6 (33%), 15/19 (79%) and 4/5 (80%) in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. All tuberculosis medicines included in Kenya's and Uganda's STGs were registered compared with only 12/19 (63%) tuberculosis medicines in Tanzania's STG.
    Conclusions: Alignment between treatment guidelines, EMLs and drug registers is crucial for effective national pharmaceutical policy. Research is needed to understand the inclusion of medicines on STGs and DSGs which fall outside WHO treatment guidelines; the non-alignment of some STGs and DSGs, and STGs and DSGs including medicines which are not on country EML and drug register.

  9. Article ; Online: Socioeconomic inequality, waiting time initiatives and austerity in Scotland: an interrupted time series analysis of elective hip and knee replacements and arthroscopies.

    Abstract Objectives: National Health Service (NHS) waiting times have long been a political priority in Scotland. In 2002, the Scottish government launched a programme of investment and reform to reduce waiting times. The effect on waiting time inequality is unknown as is the impact of subsequent austerity measures.
    Design: An interrupted time series analysis between the most and least socioeconomically deprived population quintiles since the introduction of waiting time initiative 1 July 2002 and austerity measures 1 April 2010.
    Setting: All NHS-funded elective primary hip replacement, primary knee replacement and arthroscopy patient data in Scotland from 1 April 1997 to 31 March 2019.
    Participants: NHS Scotland funded patients treated in Scotland.
    Main outcome measures: Trends and changes in mean waiting time.
    Results: There were 135,176, 122,883 and 173,976 NHS funded hip replacement, knee replacement and arthroscopy patients, respectively, in Scotland between 1 April 1997 and 31 March 2019. From 1 July 2002 to 31 March 2010, waiting time inequality between the most and least deprived patients fell and increased thereafter. For hip replacements before 1 July 2002, waiting time inequality increased 1.07 days per quarter; this changed at 1 July 2002 with significant slope change of -2.32 (-3.53, -1.12) days resulting in a decreasing rate of inequality of -1.26 days per quarter. On 1 April 2010 the slope changed significantly by 1.84 (0.90, 2.78) days restoring increasing inequality at 0.58 days per quarter. Knee replacements and arthroscopies had similar results.
    Conclusions: The waiting time initiative in Scotland is associated with a reduction in waiting time inequality benefiting the most socioeconomically deprived patients. Austerity measures may be reversing these gains.
