flag Somerset’s top national NHS rankings don’t speed up hospital upgrades delayed to 2033.

flag Somerset’s NHS trusts ranked in the top 20 nationally for performance in A&E waits, ambulance response, and elective surgery, but this recognition won’t accelerate planned hospital upgrades, including Musgrove Park’s redevelopment delayed to 2033 due to post-2024 funding constraints. flag Health Minister Laura Smith said the league tables aim to increase transparency, not pressure staff, and emphasized ongoing support through capital bids and local decision-making via the Somerset Integrated Care Board. flag The government is prioritizing community-based care, digital health, and reducing unnecessary travel, with improvements guided by local needs rather than rankings.
