<p>Several external evaluations of the impact of Elective Surgical Hubs are currently
ongoing, and supported by NHS England. The University of York is carrying out a comprehensive
evaluation funded by the National Institute of Healthcare Research.</p><p> </p><p>The
Health Foundation’s Improvement Analytics Unit has also conducted a quantitative assessment
of the impact of surgical hubs, with the results to be published later this month.
The Health Foundation’s analysis will indicate the impact surgical hubs have had on
the number of procedures undertaken and whether they have increased day-case rates
and reduced lengths of stay, all of which supports elective recovery, and reductions
in waiting times for elective care.</p>
