NHS Trusts: Cost Effectiveness
(asked on 13th January 2025) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of value for money of NHS trusts paying £6.2 million annually from revenue budgets to NHS Providers.
This question was answered on 27th January 2025
The Department has made no such assessment, as the responsibility for spending decisions rests with individual National Health Service trusts.
As public bodies, NHS trusts should maintain the highest standards of rigour, value for money, and propriety in the use of public funding. All spending must contribute to organisational objectives and support the delivery of high-quality patient care.
