Another official later told colleagues that the adjusted baseline method would appear in the next round of published figures.Effectiveness Claims Face ScrutinyFormer NHS England head of operational research and evaluation Charles Tallack said the FOI findings raise serious questions about the health service’s analytical culture. He said NHS England must ensure its published analysis follows government guidance to maintain trust in its decisions and claims.The discharge-delay data has already faced criticism. The Financial Times identified errors in an underlying dataset, while Health Foundation analysis found no noticeable improvement in discharge performance at hospitals using the patient-tracking tool.NHS England said debate, challenge and ongoing review form part of its analytical practice. It said it is making a small change to baseline statistics for NHS organizations that have used a platform product for less than 12 months.Analyst Consensus & Recent Actions: The stock carries a Buy rating with an average price forecast of $183.27.
