<p>There are currently 94 elective surgical hubs operational across the National Health
Service in England. Of those, 63 have implemented unique data codes which allow for
their activity to be measured separately from the wider activity of the hospital trust
which runs the hub. As of the week ending 30 July 2023, the most recent available
data, these 63 hubs have delivered 10,253 elective procedures and 41,067 outpatient
appointments.</p><p>Implementation of the unique site codes for the remaining 31 hubs
is ongoing and is expected to be completed by November 2023. The total number of elective
procedures and outpatient appointments above is therefore likely to be an underestimate
of total activity.</p>
