       admissions

       What is the effect on productivity by service redesign to reduce
       paediatric admissions?
       If the programme set out in Focus on: emergency and urgent care
       pathway for children and young people were introduced across NHS
       England to reduce by 25% both the number of emergency admissions
       and the number of children and young people who present at
       emergency departments, then £129 million of benefits could be
       realised (first-year saving across 151 trusts).
       This is based on reducing the number of tariff payments made per
       admitted patient (based on an average of £622 for overnight stay
       and an average of £565 for a zero length of stay, i.e. those who
       do not stay overnight – from Dr Foster Intelligence,
       0–16 emergency data 2008/09).
