Abstract

This briefing paper aims to contribute some background analysis and data to inform a debate in the House of Commons on 28 April 1994 about London's health care system. It begins with comparative considerations; whether high needs and poor community based care lead to greater pressure on hospitals; and key facts about London under the headings: health and social characteristics; primary and continuing care; hospitals and community health services provision; public opinion; and patterns of spending.
