Sport and exercise medicine
(SEM) is a new specialism in the UK NHS. As the NHS long-term plan leans towards a focus on preventive health and streamlining budgets, using SEM physicians in promoting exercise medicine as part of the holistic treatment of patients, and in creating active hospitals, to encourage people to move more and reduce ‘pyjama paralysis’, can be a way for NHS Trusts to achieve these goals. SEM physicians would improve the healthcare burden of musculoskeletal conditions on public services.

The changing face of internal medicine: Patient centred care.
Abstract Patient centred care is now considered the gold standard and there should be 'no decision about me, without me'.

Perhaps the most important barrier to goal-oriented care is that medicine is deeply rooted in a disease-outcome-based paradigm. Rather than asking what patients want, the culture of modern medicine has prioritised optimal disease management according to guidelines and population goals.
