When dealing with NHS, one quickly runs into problems of scale; it can be hard to fit the sizes, figures and breakdowns into your understanding. Martin Elliott, with the help of Information is Beautiful, shows you just how large the numbers are. This is an extract from a full Gresham Lecture ‘Doing More For Less: Paediatric Cardiac Surgery After the Financial Crisis’ presented by Professor Martin Elliott. The full video and audio can be found on our website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/doing-more-for-less-paediatric-cardiac-surgery-after-the-financial-crisis Gresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597.
