DHSC Group Accounting Manual Updates

The Department of Health and Social Care is updating its group accounting manual to improve financial reporting and transparency in its annual accounts. The Treasury and Parliament have raised concerns that DHSC accounts lack sufficient detail on long-term financial pressures, particularly regarding social care liabilities, pension obligations, and clinical negligence provisions. The department is working with HM Treasury and the Government Actuary's Department to refine discounting methodologies and enhance narrative disclosure of health and social care system finances.
