Outpatient Network Limited

What Outpatient Network Limited does

Outpatient Network Limited is a UK-based private clinical insourcing provider that deploys in-house clinical teams (consultants, specialist nurses, and HCAs) into NHS Trusts to run outpatient clinics, diagnostic services, and elective surgery lists. Founded in December 2021 and headquartered in Milton Keynes, the company serves 28+ NHS Trusts across England and Wales, with documented activity spanning 40+ clinical specialties including Gynaecology, Cardiology, Audiology, ENT, Gastroenterology, Orthopaedics, Respiratory Medicine, Urology, Oncology, Rheumatology, Neurology, Ophthalmology, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, and General Surgery. By December 2024 the company had supported over 60,000 patients, with programmes targeting RTT backlog reduction, 52-week and 104-week waiter elimination, DMO1 compliance, and cancer pathway delivery.

The company's core offering is fully managed clinical insourcing delivered via bespoke multi-year contracts with NHS Trusts, with revenue generated through service commissioning. The operating model emphasises rapid mobilisation (often within days), CQC-aligned governance under the proprietary GRIFT framework, Royal College guidance adherence, and real-time KPI dashboards covering DNA rates, RTT compliance, cancellations, and patient outcomes. Clinical teams integrate directly with NHS Trust systems and substantive staff, with delivery models including weekend and evening sessions. Distribution is exclusively direct enterprise sales, with the NHS Partnership Lead (Preston Henser) managing discovery calls and proposals; no reseller or self-serve channels exist. The company's policy disclosures reference affiliation with Pertemps Network Group, though ownership structure is not definitively confirmed in the available data.

Broad incumbents

• Practice Plus Group: UK independent healthcare provider running hospitals, surgical centres, and NHS insourcing programmes. Overlaps on outpatient and elective surgical insourcing but operates a much broader portfolio including secondary care sites.
• InHealth Group: Large UK independent provider of diagnostic services, community ENT, and outpatient capacity to the NHS. Overlapping outpatient diagnostic capacity offering but at meaningfully broader scale and longer-tenured.

Direct peers

• HealthHarmonie: UK clinical services company delivering NHS-commissioned outpatient and diagnostic pathways. Operates insourced clinics in multiple specialties with comparable NHS Trust customer base.
• Medinet: Clinical insourcing specialist operating across NHS Trusts in the same multi-specialty outpatient, diagnostic and surgical capacity model. Direct overlap on Gynaecology, ENT, Endoscopy, and ophthalmology services.
• Remedy Healthcare Solutions: Clinical insourcing provider to NHS Trusts covering multiple specialties, using in-house clinical teams to deliver outpatient and diagnostic capacity. Directly comparable trust-by-trust insourcing model.
• 18 Week Support: UK-based clinical insourcing provider delivering outsourced outpatient, diagnostic and surgical capacity to NHS Trusts on weekends and evenings. Closest direct competitor with identical NHS insourcing value proposition.
• CHEC (Community Health and Eyecare): UK provider of outsourced NHS ophthalmology and gastroenterology services via community-based treatment centres. Comparable specialist-led insourcing approach with multi-specialty capability expansion.
• Totally plc: AIM-listed UK healthcare services group providing NHS insourcing (Planned Care Solutions), urgent care, and community services. Overlapping insourcing-plus-wider-portfolio model in the same NHS commissioning market.

Others

• ID Medical Group: UK-based clinical recruitment and staffing provider serving NHS Trusts. Adjacent workforce-supply model rather than full clinical insourcing, but competes for the same clinician pool.
• NHS Professionals: NHS-owned flexible staffing provider placing clinicians into NHS Trusts. Not a direct insourcing competitor but represents the in-house alternative trusts can choose over outsourced insourcing partners.
