Ramsay Health Care & the NHS
Ramsay Health Care is one of the largest networks of private
hospitals in England and the biggest independent provider of NHS
services, having had close links with the NHS for many years.
The company’s role within the NHS has been to provide additional
capacity for elective surgery to help reduce waiting times for
patients whilst maintaining an excellent standard of clinical care.
Services are provided by Ramsay to the NHS at the standard tariff.
