Patients losing patience: A backlog of NHS appointments boosts demand for private practices

Over the five years through 2022-23, specialist medical practices' revenue is expected to contract at a compound annual rate of 0.3% to £11 billion. Demand for specialist medical services has remained resilient as an ageing population in the UK and rising obesity levels have increased health problems. However, limited funding from the NHS and reduced capacity during 2020-21 have weighed on revenue. The outbreak of COVID-19 delayed millions of non-essential medical procedures. Waiting lists for NHS consultant-led elective care reached a record high of 6.6 million patients in May 2022, according to NHS England.

This industry includes medical consultation and treatment in the field of specialised medicine by medical specialists and surgeons. It also includes family planning centres that provide medical treatment such as sterilisation and termination of pregnancy, without accommodation.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
