One Health Group PLC (LON:OHGR), the independent provider of free high quality NHS care for patients referred for treatment in Orthopaedics, Spine, General Surgery and Gynaecology, has confirmed it has extended its support of the NHS in working to reduce the national waiting list through two new contracts secured with local NHS trusts.
The Group is providing Barnsley Teaching Hospital with additional Orthopaedic capacity, and Derby & Burton NHS Foundation Trust with both Gynaecology and Orthopaedic capacity. These additional patients are transferred from the Trust’s own internal waiting lists and are in addition to the patients One Health Group receives directly following a GP referral through ‘patient choice’.
This activity is in addition to similar contracts secured in 2022/23 with Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals (Orthopaedic & Spine) and Chesterfield Royal Hospital (Orthopaedic & Gynaecology). One Health has also increased capacity of its Orthopaedic support of Sheffield Teaching Hospital in the second half of this calendar year by 50%, with a view to this continuing to the end of March 2024.”
