- Overseas Visitor Management Team
- Description
I would like to know about the financing of the overseas visitor management team at your trust during the period from the 1st of January 2015 until the 1st of January 2016. Please provide a close estimate of the cost of the overseas team during that period. This cost could include salaries, but also overheads including facilities and equipment used.
- Response
We had no direct budget assigned to Overseas Visitors Management, I estimate that on average it was 25% of a band 4 role to administer and 10% of a band 5 role to supervise. FYE with on costs would be in the region of £10k including a bit of time for management.
Since 1st September this role has been undertaken by the Private Patient and Overseas Patients Manager.
