  NHS surgeons opting out of performance tables to be named
  
  Health secretary, Jeremy Hunt, says doctors have no valid reason not to disclose patient death rates
  
  The doctors' performance tables are aimed at creating a more transparent NHS.
  
  Doctors who decide not to disclose details of their performance will be named by the government, it has
  
  emerged.
  
  The health secretary, Jeremy Hunt, said there was no valid reason why consultants should not make
  
  their figures available.
  
  It is understood Hunt has asked officials to draw up plans to publish the patient death rates of NHS
  
  doctors as early as next month and, subject to legal requirements, he wants every consultant to be
  
  obliged to disclose the details. Those who refuse will be named.
  
  Hunt said: "Subject to proper risk adjustment of the data there can be no valid reason why it should
  
  not be published - and the majority of consultants strongly support the case for doing so.
