The Musculoskeletal health: local profiles has been updated.

The following indicators have been updated with data for 2022:

  • prevalence of a self-reported long-term musculoskeletal (MSK) problem
  • prevalence of self-reporting at least 2 long-term conditions, at least one of which is MSK related
  • odds of self-reported mental health conditions in people with an MSK condition, compared with those without an MSK condition (odds ratio)

The Musculoskeletal health: local profiles has been designed to bring together meaningful data on a single platform, to enable the commissioning of high-value musculoskeletal services. Data are provided in a user-friendly format to help local government and health services:

  • understand the health needs of their populations
  • see how many people are accessing services in their areas
  • find out the cost and outcomes of services
