FINANCE: University Hospital Birmingham Foundation Trust achieved 91 per cent of its £18.8m cost improvement plan savings in 2011-12.
Board papers for April reveal this was an improvement on the beginning of the year. In quarter one only 70 per cent of planned savings were achieved.
The £1.8m slippage was attributed to “later than expected commencement of some schemes with the largest shortfalls.”

The chief executive of one of England’s top mental health trusts is retiring this summer.
University hospitals face bias from national leaders, and growing challenges from tightening funding and Brexit, their trade body has said.
The NHS is at risk of losing significant amounts of its additional funding growth because of the time it will take to address its workforce shortages, according to a former Department of Health senior official.
The medical director at University Hospitals Birmingham Foundation Trust has been appointed as the organisation’s new permanent chief executive, to take over from Dame Julie Moore.
One of the country’s largest trusts will received £162m of central loans to help support the balance sheet following its merger with its neighbour.
Dame Julie Moore has announced her retirement from the newly merged University Hospitals Birmingham Foundation Trust.
