Description

The fifth edition of LaingBuisson’s Mental Health Hospitals Market Report reveals a steadily expanding market, valued at £2.35 billion, across the independent mental health hospital provider sector. In exploring this market, LaingBuisson also provides insight into the niche market segments within mental health services that operators can specialise within. This report is an essential guide for anyone involved in this highly complex and robustly regulated sector of the UK health economy.

It also provides a comprehensive view across policy, legislative and regulatory change over the last five years, as well a detailed picture on the M&A landscape and strategic developments in the sector.

Alongside macro drivers, this report also offers insight into market sizes for specific segments where providers can offer a specialised value-add. This includes medium and low secure settings, alongside inpatient services built for specific patient need, such as neuro-rehabilitation, Tier 4 CAMHS, substance misuse, learning disabilities and adult eating disorders.

Mental health has come increasingly under the policy spotlight over the last ten years and major changes have taken place over the commissioning and policy landscape. A focus on developing community services does not change the critical need for mental health inpatient beds and for highly specialised provision for some of the most vulnerable and challenging members of society. The independent sector stepped in to develop these services as NHS-supply beds declined, LaingBuisson’s market report is a comprehensive view on how robust and defensible this provision remains.
