Abstract
Key points NICE seeks to reduce health inequalities through its guidance. NICE uses equality and health inequalities assessment (EHIA) to identify and address health inequalities. A health inequalities briefing was developed for breast cancer‐related guidance to consider and address health inequalities more systematically. The committee made recommendations that consider the impact of health inequalities on access and adherence. Further research is recommended for interventions targeting specific population subgroups. The health inequalities briefing identified late diagnosis and screening variations as key issues among deprived women and ethnic minority groups, which was passed on to the National Institute for Health and Care Research as a research priority.
