Question
Will the Minister confirm what the unit cost per day for an NHS bed is?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Health and Social Services
The unit costs per day of NHS beds vary across the medical specialisms. Costs are captured across the Welsh NHS and, based on the full costings associated with each patient, we estimate the bed day cost associated with General Medical beds to be £582.
