Huddersfield’s health officials plan to shave £3.4m off their bill with NHS hospitals next year and spend more on private ones.
Greater Huddersfield Clinical Commissioning Group (GHCCG) has laid out its spending plans for 2015/16 and managers have admitted the task of finding cash for patients has never been tougher.
GHCCG has a £288m budget for the coming financial year - £3.8m more than in 2013/14.
But finance chief, Julie Lawreniuk, has said next year’s budget is extremely “tight”.
“The plan is very challenging,” she said to members at GHCCG’s March governing body meeting.
