Quality of healthcare in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland: an intra-UK chartbook (12th March 2009)
A new chartbook launched by the Health Foundation brings together data for the first time from across the four home nations of the UK to present a unique picture of quality. The chartbook shows that that all four countries in recent years have seen significant falls in mortality from cancer, coronary heart disease and stroke. Patient ratings of quality across the UK are also high, though all four countries are still trying to improve health inequalities between the best and worst among their populations.
