NHS watchdog pays consultancy firm £500,000 to define its 'purpose'

NHS watchdog pays consultancy firm £500,000 to define its 'purpose' The NHS financial watchdog paid half a million pounds to a consultancy firm to define its ‘purpose’.

NHS Improvement - which oversees hospital spending - hired McKinsey on the lucrative contract earlier this month.

The firm will aim to clarify the watchdog’s ‘purpose and operating model’ by speaking to hospital chief executives.

Critics described the spend as ‘scandalous’ at a time when the NHS is facing an unprecedented cash crisis. The Daily Mail
