    The document projects how different English regions would gain or lose health spending if the current link between deprivation and health funding was reformed. Regions with higher Conservative voting such as South East Coast and East of England could see funding increases of up to 15.8% and 12.6% respectively, while more Labour-voting areas like North East and North West may lose up to 14.9% and 12% under potential reforms. However, the UK government has not yet made a final decision about changing the current health funding formula.
