Healthcare Policy covers how health policy is designed and carried out in England, including involvement with the NHS, government departments, and health regulators. A solicitor in this area helps clients draft policy proposals, respond to public consultations, assess regulatory impact, and shape governance or commissioning approaches within the NHS framework. They coordinate with NHS England and NHS Improvement, the Department of Health and Social Care, the Care Quality Commission, and local health bodies to ensure policies align with legal duties and funding requirements.
