Calls for Amendments to the Health and Social Care Bill

As the Health and Social Care Bill goes through the House of Lords, a group comprising Homeless Link, the National Housing Federation and St Mungo’s are working to ensure the voices of homeless people are heard. The group is calling for amendments that will:
*encourage greater accountability for reducing health inequalities and better integration of commissioning across health and social care
*mean commissioners must report on what they have actually done to address health inequalities, to make the system more transparent
*introduce a tariff system that does not discourage the treatment of homeless people
