The release of ‘Fit for the Future: 10 Year Health Plan for England’ demonstrates a strong commitment to improving cardiovascular care and reducing related deaths by 25%. At BMS, we share this vision, along with British Heart Foundation, recognising that early prevention and intervention are critical to improving health outcomes. I believe that innovative medicines, combined with employment support, can play a vital role in helping individuals manage their condition and avoid economic inactivity. By delivering high-quality care earlier in the patient journey, we can support people to lead longer, healthier lives while remaining active in their work, family life, and communities. I look forward to continuing our work with government, BHF and other advocacy partners to help make this vision a reality. #BMSUK #CardiovascularDisease
You can't upgrade the nation's health without tackling cardiovascular disease (CVD), one of the UK's biggest killers. Today, the Government announced a 10 Year Health Plan in England which sets the direction for the NHS for the next decade. It's great to see the Government recommit to reducing early deaths from CVD by 25% over the next decade. This ambitious goal is possible. We're excited to work with the Government to make it happen.
