Latest figures show 1,015,067 ‘episodes of care’ have been postponed since the end of last year
More than 1m outpatient appointments and operations have been cancelled since strikes began in December last year across the NHS in England, new figures reveal.
Last week’s four-day stoppage by both consultants and junior doctors forced hospitals to reschedule 129,913 more “episodes of care”, taking the total to just over 1m, NHS England said.
