A special rapid investigation of the National Health Service was commissioned by health secretary Wes Streeting shortly after he took office, highlighting critical problems and their causes.
The report, led by Ara Darzi, serves as a foundation for future policy as the government aims to address what Streeting calls a broken service.
Keir Starmer called the report raw and honest, noting it exposes failures across systems, particularly how issues in general practice and social care affect hospital workload.
The report reveals that after improvements in cardiovascular mortality rates for those under 75 from 2001 to 2010, progress stalled and rates began to rise again during the Covid-19 pandemic.
