Expanding Access Through Right to Choose
Demand for NHS Right to Choose referrals has increased significantly, particularly in areas such as ADHD and mental health services.
As patient awareness grows, more independent providers are exploring whether their services are eligible to accept NHS-funded referrals under RTC frameworks.
However, provider participation requires clarity around:
- NHS contracting requirements
- Clinical governance standards
- Operational readiness
- Referral pathway compliance
The partnership between Find Care Compare and Health Venture’s Partners aims to support providers in assessing whether they are RTC-ready — safely, clearly and realistically.
Complementary Expertise
Find Care Compare, founded by Roxanne Stevenson-Brown, focuses on improving transparency and access across NHS and private healthcare services in England.
Health Venture’s Partners, led by Isaac Ezro-Lack, specialises in healthcare governance, regulatory readiness and system integration.
By combining patient demand insights with governance expertise, the partnership supports a structured approach to expanding access.
Supporting High-Quality Provider Participation
The shared objective of the partnership is to:
- Expand patient access to NHS-funded pathways
- Increase transparency around RTC eligibility
- Support independent providers entering the NHS referral landscape
- Maintain high standards of governance and compliance
As NHS waiting times continue to vary across England, enabling more high-quality providers to participate in RTC pathways may improve system resilience.
Independent providers interested in assessing whether their service is RTC-ready are encouraged to contact Find Care Compare or Health Venture’s Partners for further discussion.
Find Care Compare is a UK-based healthcare comparison platform designed to improve transparency and access across NHS and private healthcare services.
