摘要:
The COVID-19 pandemic led to widespread surgery cancellations, creating a significant backlog of elective procedures in the UK. Recently, NHS England (NHSE) launched the High Volume, Low Complexity (HVLC) surgical hubs programme as part of the elective recovery plan. HVLC hubs were designed to separate elective surgery from other hospital activities, protecting procedures from emergency care disruptions. There are three types of hubs: standalone, integrated, and ring-fenced. We test whether implementing surgical hubs improves consultant productivity among NHS trusts. We find that productivity was declining even before COVID-19. While overall productivity still fell after hub rollout, surgical hubs slowed this decline, preventing a sharper drop.
