The Government is developing a Modern Service Framework (MSF) for Palliative Care and End of Life Care for England, with a planned publication of the full report in autumn 2026. This will be aligned with the ambitions set out in the last year’s published 10-Year Health Plan.

An interim update on the development of the MSF will be published shortly.
