Transforming and Modernising Planned Care, published on 26 April 2022, described how the NHS would use clinical prioritisation to manage waiting lists. More information can be found at:

In addition, the National Endoscopy Programme has been undertaking work to improve endoscopy utilisation, support clinical prioritisation (including for inflammatory bowel disease), and increase workforce and theatre capacity. More information can be found at:
