FOI/25/004

Request

1. How many patients paid for private maternity services via your trust in the calendar years 2012, 2016, 2018 and 2022, 2023? Please break this down by year and say whether the births were consultant led natural delivery or consultant led cesarean. Please also say how much money was raised by the trust for private maternity services in those years.
2. How many patients paid for a private room to stay in after birth via your trust in the calendar years 2012, 2016, 2018 and 2022, 2023?
3. Please break this down by year and also state the money made for the trust through this service in each of those years.
4. If you have any queries regarding this request then please let me know. I am defining private maternity services as when a patient pays for their birth to be done privately and also any aftercare as part of a package. I know separately, that patients can just pay for a private room to stay in after giving birth, which is the focus of the second question.
5. For the first question in relation to money made, please can this figure include any additional that patients may have paid for beyond beyond the package available - ie an extra stay in hospital or for anaesthetics intervention.

Response

This would be Nil Information – As we do not hold maternity services within CLCH
