Cardiovascular Disease Market Engagement

Description

This Government has set an ambition to reduce premature deaths from heart disease and strokes by 25% within a decade. To deliver on the ambition, the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and NHS England are working together to understand the scale of the challenge and the opportunities for progress across the prevention, treatment and management of cardiovascular disease (CVD). To accelerate progress on the mission and tackle unwarranted variation across the country, we will publish a new cardiovascular disease Modern Service Framework (CVD MSF). The framework will be published in 2026 and will support consistent, high quality and equitable care whilst fostering innovation across the CVD pathway. DHSC is interested in exploring how industry, voluntary, community and social enterprises and government can better work together to achieve its strategic ambition to reduce heart disease and strokes by 25% within a decade. The purpose of this market engagement is to invite any party connected or interested in our ambition to tackle CVD to complete a questionnaire asking them what they feel are potential areas of opportunity for collaboration. This questionnaire is likely to form part of a wider programme of market engagement activities related to CVD. This initial engagement is designed to be broad and strategic. DHSC anticipates carrying out further engagements, including more targeted potential partnerships once the MSF has been published with specific challenge areas.
