HEALTH EQUITY INTELLIGENCE NETWORK(HEIN®)
HEIN® is an advanced health intelligence network focused on the scientific quantification of equity and clinical risk. Our members bring a granular understanding of lived experience within their communities, utilising a unified 100-point framework to bridge the gap between local insights and system-wide commissioning. By integrating NICE-compliant health utility data with real-world social barriers, the HEIN® network provides the validated evidence and precision intelligence needed to drive measurable change in population health outcomes.
01
Clinical Health & Outcomes
Validated health utility mapping based on the NICE 2026 Reference Case. We provide the high-resolution clinical data required for modern admission avoidance.
02
Social Determinants & Access
Quantifying structural barriers to care. We evaluate the impact of Health Literacy, Digital Inclusion, and Connectivity to build inclusive neighbourhood health models.
03
Preventive Health Compliance
Accelerating action on national Core20PLUS5 priorities. We track real-world compliance in CVD, Cancer, Respiratory, SMI, and Maternity to bridge the clinical gap.
Our Vision: A future where health equity is the standard, not the exception.
Our Mission: To bridge the inequality gap by delivering the validated clinical intelligence and social insights needed for true admission avoidance.
REGIONAL INTELLIGENCE
Validated Intelligence for Population Health.
Place-Based Granularity: Moving Beyond Regional Averages."
Standard population health reports often mask local inequalities by focusing on broad averages. The HEIN Index™ provides high-resolution, postcode-level intelligence that allows our partners to see exactly where clinical and social interventions are bridging the gap. By disaggregating data by neighbourhood, we empower the network to allocate resources with precision and transparency.
