WINNER: DMC Healthcare, Lincolnshire ICB, United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals Trust, and Lincolnshire Elective Activity Coordination Hub: Reducing Dermatology Patient Waiting Lists Post-COVID Recovery

DMC Healthcare has been at the forefront of addressing the escalating dermatology waiting lists in Lincolnshire, which surged to nearly 8,000 patients, with wait times exceeding 100 weeks following the covid crisis. In collaboration with Lincolnshire ICB and ULHT, DMC Healthcare worked alongside the Lincolnshire Elective Activity Coordination Hub, a centralised service to validate the entire waiting list. DMC Healthcare provided comprehensive support from the initial assessment to discharge for nearly 3,000 patients confirmed for treatment. This partnership exemplifies DMC Healthcare’s commitment to continuous improvement and innovation in patient care, setting a benchmark in the independent sector.
