The rise and rise of the hospital group

HSJ Health Check

An increasing number of hospitals are appointing shared CEOs and chairs and with more large ’groups’ being created – this week we discuss the benefits and drawbacks to this new(ish) way of running things.

We focus on two recent examples - the Barts Health Group in London and University Hospitals of Leicester, which as of this week shares a chair and CEO with two neighbouring trusts.

With Ben Clover, Annabelle Collins and Dave West.
