answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/05/2016 answer text <p>No estimate has been made of the cost to the National Health Service of delayed days in hospital due to patients waiting for community equipment and adaptions.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The Department collects the unit cost of an excess bed day, which, based on reported costs of stays in hospital beyond statistically derived measures of the expected length of stay for given treatments, was £303 in 2014-15. Whilst this unit cost should generally include only the costs associated with the ward, costing guidance acknowledges that active treatment does continue for some patients. Combining it with information on the number of delayed days would therefore tend to overestimate the gross cost of these delays.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 04/05/2016 10:49:38 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
