Operation pressures escalation levels (OPELs)

Official sensitive (Updated: 10am 10 April 2026)

LSC System – OPEL XScore = 54/100
BTH
OPEL XScore = 67/100
ELHT
OPEL XScore = 47/100
LTH
OPEL XScore = 57/100
UHMB
OPEL XScore = 80/100

Scores calculated as per NHSE OPEL Framework 24/26
Work is ongoing to review and refine data quality since the move to the 2025/26 OPEL Framework, which in some cases is leading to artificially high scores being reported. 
Please note OPEL 4 must be formally declared by Trust executives, therefore a score of OPEL 4 on its own does not mean that the organisation is formally operating at OPEL 4.
