NHS Hospital League Tables Return to England

NHS Hospital League Tables Return to EnglandSaralnama

NHS hospital league tables are brought back by ministers in England. The tables rank all 205 NHS trusts from best to worst based on 30 metrics. Moorfields eye hospital in London tops the list, while Queen Elizabeth hospital in Norfolk is at the bottom. Health Secretary Wes Streeting says this will help end the 'postcode lottery' in treatment quality. The tables will be updated every three months. High-performing trusts will get more freedom, while struggling ones will receive extra support. However, health experts warn that the rankings may not accurately reflect hospital quality and could discourage patients from seeking care at lower-rated facilities.
