Supported self-management and MSK health inequalities
Oral evidence session
The inquiry has received conflicting evidence on self-management. Some submissions see supporting self-management as a way to reduce inequalities. Others see it as something which disproportionately benefits those with high levels of health literacy and agency and therefore increases health inequalities.
