Two hospitals under University Hospitals of North Midlands were criticised by the watchdog in December for having too few staff and errors in reporting “near miss” events. Ms Bullock is now on a salary up to £230,000 a year, while Ms Major is on up to £240,000 a year. Tracy Bullock, CEO of University Hospitals of North Midlands and Kirsten Major, CEO of Sheffield Teaching Hospitals, both received a pay increase last year despite failing to hit the target, according to their trusts accounts Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust had 695 patients waiting 78 weeks, University Hospitals of North Midlands had 561, while Sheffield Teaching Hospitals had 410. Some 81 acute trusts have 5 or fewer patients waiting 78 weeks to start treatment, the latest data show, suggesting how far behind MFT is in reaching the recovery target compared to others. The Manchester trust has been subject to criticism following its pandemic recovery performance. According to the most recent Trust accounts Sir Mike was on a salary of up to £280,000 per year. MFT appointed a new CEO last month, Mark Cubbon, following the retirement of Sir Mike Deegan who held the post for 21-years. Last year, the trust was placed on a watchlist by NHS England as being “at risk” of missing key recovery targets and offered additional support. MFT had more 78-week waiters than the whole of London, according to the data, where 907 patients were waiting 18 months. Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) has the highest number of long waiters, 969, followed by University of Leicester NHS Trust, 837. The data also show just 10 NHS trusts are responsible for almost half (48 per cent) of those long waiters.Īround 10,700 patients were waiting more than 18 months to begin treatment by April, down 90 per cent from a peak of 125,000 in September 2021. Official figures show NHS England has missed one of its key elective recovery targets for clearing the Covid backlog - to eliminate waits of more than 78 weeks by April. Ten NHS trusts are responsible for nearly half of patients who are waiting more than 18 months to start treatment, it has emerged.
