Definition of "Core Capacity" and Impact of unscheduled care on Core Capacity.
I was asked to provide information regarding `core capacity'. In relation to surgical operations this comprises the theatres and beds which are generally designated or assumed to be available for planned activity. Clearly the theatres and beds are supported by budgeted staff and non-pay resources. Health Board will plan activity levels with reference to the capacity and will schedule admissions and operations accordingly. The core capacity will not take account of potential 'additional activity' which is secured either within the organisation through waiting times initiatives or externally by, for example, the use of other NHS providers or the independent sector. Such activity normally incurs additional, premium costs above those included in planned budgets.
I was also asked to clarify the impact of unscheduled care on core capacity. During the Winter and early Spring of 2012/13 there was a high level of demand for unscheduled care. This occurred across the UK. Our Health Boards opened additional beds but also usedsome of the core elective capacity for patients admitted as emergencies. This led to cancellations of planned activity. Health Boards did reinstate some of the cancelled activity and took decisions in this regard which were guided by clinical priority.
As stated above this additional activity was more costly and required the application of additional funding. The ability of Health Board to fund such activity was determined by the amount of money available to them in the context of their statutory financial duties.
