Civitas Health Unit

The health unit aims to:

• Facilitate informed and unassuming debate among key stakeholders and the grassroots of the medical profession, to help build consensus on the future of health care in the UK.


• Bring fresh thinking to problems facing the NHS through frontline analysis and careful consideration of what could be learnt from other health systems.


• Focus on what matters: patient-centred, safe and integrated health care, provided by empowered clinicians.
