12:14Now PlayingJames O'Brien reflects on the government's decision to publish, for the first time, league tables ranking NHS trusts across England.
Number one is Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, followed by the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust and cancer centre the Christie NHS Foundation Trust.
At the bottom is Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King's Lynn, which has had major problems with its buildings because of structural weaknesses and the need for props to hold up ceilings.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting said the tables would help inform the public and allow them to exercise choice - but trusts have questioned whether they were using the right metrics.
The rankings score NHS trusts on seven different areas including waiting times for operations, cancer treatment, time spent in A&E and ambulance response times.
