The HPVP system is contracted for use at hospital level and phase 1 includes 28 public and voluntary hospitals. Private hospitals are not within scope. A real-time daily view of the weekly National Treatment Purchase Fund waiting list will be incorporated into the HPVP platform in 2024. This will enable hospitals to manage NTPF patients more effectively by using analytics available within HPVP.
