Women's Health Plan

Letter from the Scottish Governments Chief Medical Officer to the Convener, 19 August 2021


Dear Convener,

As you will know, the Scottish Government has committed to publishing its Women’s Health Plan within the first 100 days of this parliamentary session.

The Plan will underpin actions to improve women’s health inequalities by raising awareness around women’s health, improving access to health care for women across their life course and reducing inequalities in health outcomes for girls and women, both for sex-specific conditions and in women’s general health. It has been developed in collaboration with a number of stakeholders including in health and social care and the Third Sector, and includes input from women who participated in a survey and engagement events.

Yours sincerely
Dr Gregor Smith
Chief Medical Officer
