NHS trusts in England that serve more patients from the most deprived areas receive a lower proportion of their income from private patients and charitable donations than those that serve less deprived populations, research has found.1
For some years successive governments have encouraged NHS trusts to grow their non-NHS commercial income.2 In 2022 NHS England said in leaked guidance that private patient services “continue to be a significant source of material opportunity for the NHS.”3

Within this the researchers observed an “uneven distribution” across NHS trusts that was linked to deprivation levels.
