A special investigation by the Tele can reveal what NHS Tayside pays out every year with taxpayers’ money.
Figures revealed by the health board show just what it has to spend to keep the service going — from building maintenance and transport costs to compensation for medical negligence.
In the most recent figures between October 2010 and December 2012, NHS Tayside had to fork out more than £25,000 on 19 occasions for medical negligence —– a total of £2,673,132.15 over the period.
External consultancy payments ranged from between £1,616,581.65 in 2010/11 to £738,026.60 in 2012/13.

Why on earth is a hospital trust paying over £9m to the Inland Revenue?
