In the last two years the NHS has raised its 'productivity' (measured by number of procedures/treatments relative to staff complement) by over 2% a year but this had little impact on waiting lists.
This might suggest that the NHS productivity measure is not really getting to the heart of the NHS crisis, which may include a crisis of capacity in local (GP surgery) capacity as well as problems in social care?
Without a decline in NHS waiting lists the crisis continues!
