Tackling Health Inequalities: ten years on. A review of developments
in tackling health inequalities in
This report reviews developments in health inequalities over the last
10 years across government - from the publication of the Acheson report on
health inequalities in November 1998 to the announcement of the post-2010
strategic review of health inequalities in November 2008. It covers
developments across government on the wider social determinants of health, and
the role of the NHS. It provides an assessment of developments against
the Acheson report, reviews a range of key data sets covering social, economic,
health and environmental indicators, and considers lessons learned and
challenges for the future.
