2nd NHS Endoscopy Conference: From Transformation to Implementation Advanci

Building on the momentum of NHS Endoscopy: Beyond the Device in London, the conversation now shifts to Manchester—this time with a sharper focus on implementation, operational delivery, and unlocking untapped value within endoscopy services.

As NHS England’s endoscopy recovery funding enters its final year (2022/23–2024/25), the sector stands at a pivotal moment. The foundations are in place: national goals have been defined, and systemic challenges identified. The task ahead is clear—transforming plans into measurable outcomes.

In alignment with the priorities outlined in Fit for the Future: the 10-Year Health and Care Workforce Plan for England, this event will explore how endoscopy services can strengthen capacity, workforce, and infrastructure to meet rising demand and deliver sustainable, integrated care closer to home.

Key Themes:

• Translating national priorities into sustainable, local models of care.
• Unlocking clinical capacity and safety through smarter decontamination and reprocessing approaches.
• Managing the entire waiting list—not just 6WW—to prevent care backlogs and lost revenue.
• Building scalable digital infrastructure and data transparency.
• Workforce resilience: balancing capacity demands with long-term wellbeing.
• Aligning quality, efficiency, and patient experience across integrated pathways.
• Maximising the impact of capital investment to modernise infrastructure and expand diagnostic capacity.

Waiting List Strategy: The Untapped Opportunity:

While national focus remains heavily skewed toward meeting the 6-week diagnostic standard, many trusts are now finding that their longer-term treatment, surveillance, and routine scopes are slipping off the radar—creating bottlenecks, patient risk, and operational instability. This agenda will shine a light on how trusts can:

• Build strategic plans for total waiting list management.
• Balance diagnostic growth with therapy, screening, and follow-up services.
• Create new capacity to unlock latent clinical revenue and future-proof services.
• Prevent waiting list spirals that undermine system performance.

Attendees will hear from leaders who are actively redefining capacity planning beyond national metrics, with an eye toward whole-pathway excellence.

Why Attend:

This conference provides a timely platform for NHS endoscopy professionals and service leaders to gain insight into what’s working—and what’s next.

Real-world case studies, expert panels, and focused sessions, delegates will explore models that are delivering results in areas like digital adoption, workforce planning, and service redesign. A key focus will be on the practical role of decontamination in enabling clinical capacity, scope availability, and operational throughput—not just compliance.

The agenda will also shine a light on a growing but often unaddressed risk: total waiting list management. As diagnostic services expand to meet 6-week targets, many trusts are seeing backlogs grow in therapy, surveillance, and maintenance scopes—creating service strain and lost revenue.
