The NRA formula calculated that the local health board had been under-funded by more than £105m.
A health authority battling back after being put under emergency measures almost two years ago have been denied more than £100 million of vital cash by the Scottish Government over 15 years, an investigation claims.Health chiefs use the National Resource Allocation formula to calculate how much funding should be spread across the country based on the demand on services in each area.
A spokesperson for NHS Forth Valley said: “NHS Forth Valley has received a number of funding uplifts in recent years to ensure we remain within 0.6 per cent of NRAC parity. “We also understand that work is underway at a national level to review the funding formula to help ensure it continues to allocate funding according to the healthcare needs in each NHS Board area.”
