The Labor Party has published the first league tables similar to football to classify hospitals in England from the best to the worse since the early first decade of the twentieth century, despite warnings, patients will not help to choose the location of the search for care.
MOORFILDS specialized in London is the table, with Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King’s lynn, Norfolk, bottom.
The Minister of Health, Wes Street, said this step will help hide the “postal lottery” in the speed and quality of treatment. But health experts have warned that it was impossible to pick up properly whether any “good” or “bad” hospital and that the results may push patients to avoid seeking assistance in low classification.
Streeting said: “We must be honest about the NHS condition to repair. Patients and taxpayers must know how local NHS services are compared to the rest of the country.”
The league tables cover all NHS 205 boxes in England, which provide acute, mental, society, or ambulance. Tables will be updated every three months and is based on 30 different standards, including the duration that patients await to care for A& E, planned treatment, and the financial situation of confidence and direct experiences of patients.
The Ministry of Health and Social Welfare said that the publication is witnessing “the beginning of a new era of transparency and accountability in NHS, with the league tables connected to the government’s promise to raise the standards, address the difference in care and ensure that people get the high -quality service they really expect.”
High -performance boxes will be granted a greater freedom from NHS England and Whitehall Control, while poor artists will get “Mohsen’s support” to help them improve.
The ministers revive the league tables, which were presented as “stars classifications” in 2000 during the Tony Blair government, to try to reversed the recession in public satisfaction with NHS. The coalition government canceled these classifications in 2010.
“This is not the name and shame,” the official of the Ministry of Health insisted. “It comes to defining the areas of challenge so that we can help confidence in making its way.”
The fact that the fund financing has been used to judge them means that the league tables will be “with limited use of patients who are trying to choose the best hospital for their care.”
“The scheme also risks frustrating people from obtaining treatment from the boxes or employees badly from working for them,” she added.
Stein said the small boxes, and those in remote areas, some of which struggled to provide high -quality care, could be severely affected.
Daniel Jeffrez, an analyst at King’s Thinktank boxes, said, said Daniel Jeffrez, an analyst at King’s Thinktank boxes, said, In a blog Post: “If these league tables will be useful for the public, it is doubtful, because the hospital’s performance is not so simple or bad.”
She said that the hospital may have short waiting times from the A& E, but it does not allow patients to access uncomfortable care within the 18 -week target or cancer diagnosis within 28 days. Jefferies added that the individual general classification of confidence cannot properly transfer the scope of performance when one of the confidence runs a number of hospitals, such as the ten managed by the University of Manchester.

Under the Streeting plan, all 205 boxes were placed in one of the four “sectors” and then granted a total degree, based on the measures of 30. The low degree indicates the highest performance confidence.
The best performance performance was the confidence that provided specialized sponsorship, such as MOORFILDS first place, the Royal National Orthopedic Hospital in Foreign (second) London (second), Christie Cancer Hospital in Manchester (third) and Liverpool Heart Hospital and Al -Astor (fourth).
Northmromia, which ranked ninth, was the best unique unique hospital, followed by the University of London.
MOORFILDS board papers in July show that they were the best performance in England for patients who are waiting for 18 weeks for optional care, and the third to provide diagnostic tests within six weeks and the second to perform the A & E for four hours.
Meanwhile, the Politicians were warned on Tuesday that they might lose the upcoming elections to reform the United Kingdom unless they transfer health and local services in the poorest regions of England.
The warning was approved in the search for the Independent Biology Committee, chaired by the Hillary Armstrong Party.
The ministers need to ensure that the promised “neighborhood health centers” network, which provides a set of NHS services, opens in the disadvantaged areas as soon as possible, adding: “Obtaining this right may be the difference in the government that is re -elected or returns to the opposition.”
