answer text <p>There has been no formal assessment.</p><p>The Department is taking steps to tackle the backlogs and long waiting times as a priority, across all elective healthcare services. This includes £1 billion for National Health Service systems across the country to increase activity and tackle backlogs. It also includes encouraging innovation, as seen in the NHS’s accelerator programme, including extra clinics at weekends and virtual assessments at home. This type of innovation will help develop a blueprint for elective recovery across all services.</p> more like this
