Use of Insourcing
Dear NHS Trust/Health Board,
Please could you provide the below information:
1. What was the Trust's total insourcing spend for the financial year 2023-2024?
2. Which specialties did the Trust use insourcing for, and which insourcing providers were used for each of these specialties?
3. Does the Trust currently have any live insourcing contracts with suppliers, and if so, which specialties and suppliers are these with?
FYI: 'Insourcing' refers to the employment of a 3rd party organisation to perform clinical services on NHS Trust sites. For example, Dermatology outpatient clinics, theatres, etc.
Yours faithfully,
Zoe Dawkins
