- Abstract
The article focuses on the move by majority of surgeons in England to allow the publication of their individual outcome data from surgical units despite misgivings. It mentions some concerns raised over the publication including the accuracy of the risk adjustment, risk-averse behaviour and deadline, the importance of transparency in improving the standards for the delivery of care and training, and the decision of the Care Quality Commission (CQC) to involve clinicians in hospital inspections.
