Summary
The prevalence and impact of musculoskeletal conditions (MSK) are not experienced equally across the population. Musculoskeletal conditions are linked to deprivation and age, are more prevalent in women and disproportionately affect some minority ethnic groups. Although the issue of health inequalities is a current area of focus for the NHS, MSK receives a low profile in this work. This presentation by Liz Lingard, Delivery Partner for System Improvement at NHS England (North East & Yorkshire), looks at what drives inequalities in musculoskeletal health, and what can be done to address this.
