WINNER: Connect Health: A Fit-For-Future Sustainable Model Of Musculoskeletal (MSK) Care Maximising Productivity And Clinician Experience Through Innovations In Digital Technology, And Scalable Solutions For Demedicalising MSK Health And Self-Management

A third of the UK population live with musculoskeletal conditions, accounting for 30 per cent of all GP consultations, more than 30 million lost working days each year, and the third-largest area of NHS spend. Timely, high-quality community MSK care can reduce pain and suffering, maintain independence, and support continued employment. However, care delivery is often characterised by poor access, low productivity and unwarranted variation, under-utilisation of self-care, and poor patient and clinician experience. Connect Health created a fit-for-future sustainable model of MSK care that maximises productivity and clinician experience through innovations in digital technology, and scalable solutions for demedicalising MSK health and self-management
