Have doctors and the public been misled regarding hospital bed requirements?

Since 1998/1999, the number of daytime occupied beds in England has declined by around 0.08% per annum, an almost negligible reduction. However, the number of available beds has declined by over 21% leading to unsustainable increases in average occupancy. In January and February of 2018, hospitals were instructed to stop all non-urgent elective surgery because of winter bed pressures. This article discusses how pressures to contain costs have led to a mismatch between occupied and available beds.
