NHS Gooroo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

NHS Gooroo is a website and company run by Rob Findlay which carries information about NHS performance,[1] particularly waiting lists and performance against NHS targets.[2]

Findlay, who is based in Shrewsbury, formerly worked in the Treasury health expenditure team.[3]

Findlay explains the seasonal variations in performance against waiting list targets.[4] The company regularly produces maps showing A&E, RTT and cancer waits for English NHS trusts which are featured in the Health Service Journal.[5]

The company was acquired by Insource Ltd in May 2021.[6]
