Public payment and private provision
• Examine relationship between public and private sectors in
both delivery and funding of health care in 2000s.
• Two key messages from aggregate data:
1. Differences in the growth rates of spending:
• Public health spending rose faster rate during 2000s than in
previous 25 years; growth of private spending slowed, and fell
after 2007.
2. Increasing share of NHS-funded treatment provided by non-NHS
providers.
• Look at a specific example of hip and knee replacements to
explore these changes in more detail

NHS spending with non-NHS providers
• A series of reforms opened up some NHS-funded care to non-
NHS providers.
• Independent Sector Treatment Centres (ISTC) (2002, 2006)
• Any Qualified Provider (2008)
• Patient choice (2006, 2008)
• Between 2006/07 and 2011/12:
• Total public health spending increased by 15% in real terms to around
£120bn.
• Spending with non-NHS providers increased by 60% to £8.7bn.

What have we learnt from aggregate data?
• Growth rate of public health spending increased after 1997, as
a result of deliberate policy choices.
• Private spending growth slowed 1997-2007. Spending and
private medical insurance (PMI) enrolment fell during the
recession.
• As NHS spending rose, so did the level and share of PCT
expenditure channelled to non-NHS providers.
• Non-NHS providers deliver a small fraction of NHS-funded
secondary care, but share has risen by a third between
2006/07 and 2011/12, from 9% to 12%.
• The largest growth was in spending on what the PCT
accounts term “Independent Sector Providers”.

Hip and knee replacements: a case study
• Some interesting indicative evidence from aggregate data.
• Now look at specific case-study where:
• NHS and Independent providers deliver both NHS and privately
funded care.
• Data are available for privately-funded activity: particularly
important when assessing substitution between NHS and
privately-funded care.

What explains the increase in NHS-funded activity?
Possible drivers of increased activity:
1. Demographic Change
2. New procedures
3. Substitution from privately-funded to NHS-funded procedures

What explains the increase in NHS-funded activity?
Possible drivers of increased activity:
1. Demographic Change
2. New procedures
• Future work will:
• Examine how the characteristics of patients have changed over
time, and across provider and funding types.
• Assess the implications for patient outcomes.
3. Substitution from privately-funded to NHS-funded procedures

Evidence of substitution from the privately-funded to NHS-
funded sector
• Analysis by provider shows falls in privately-funded
procedures for:
• NHS providers
• Independent private hospitals
• Private providers that treat both privately and NHS-funded patients.
• For patients: implies substitution from privately-funded to
NHS-funded care.
• For private health care companies: indicates growth in NHS
income has compensated for falls in private patient income.
• Further growth in ISPs may be limited by both NHS demand
and independent sector capacity

Conclusions
1. Large increases in public healthcare expenditure and activity
after 1997, as a result of deliberate policy decisions.
2. A rapid rise in the share of secondary care delivered by non-
NHS providers, but NHS providers still predominant.
3. Evidence of patients substituting from privately funded to
NHS-funded care, particularly after 2007.
• Health and Social Care Act opens up new areas of NHS care
to non-NHS providers. Experience of previous reforms
suggests:
• The share of services delivered by non-NHS providers will increase, but
• That share will remain small – NHS will continue to provide the vast
majority of care.
