Auditors have raised concerns about the financial resilience of a quarter of NHS hospital trusts.

The Audit Commission said the health bodies were strong on financial reporting, and gave an unqualified audit opinion to all but three of the 265 examined.

Today?s Auditing the Accounts 2012/13: NHS Bodies reported the findings of the commission?s appointed auditors at NHS trusts, excluding foundation trusts, as well as primary care trusts and strategic health authorities in their final year of existence. These bodies were abolished in April and replaced by Clinical Commissioning Groups, led by GPs, following government reforms.
