Abstract

In the current climate of modernisation of the NHS, attention has been given to improving the efficiency and efficacy of the service provided across the different disciplines without an overspend of the allocated budget. Implementation of the cost-saving plans is also encouraged owing to the ever-increasing financial burden on the NHS, obviously without compromising patient safety and the standard of care provided. In this context, the cost of operative procedures has been given a lot of attention.
