COMMERCIAL: The south London acute trust set out its vision for attracting private patients in its three year plan, which has been sent to Monitor.

The document said the trust would this year review its clinical coding to “maximise income” in order to “allow investment in strategic priorities”.

The plan said in 2012-13 there would be a “fully established commercial directorate” and “increased private patient income streams”.
