Managers at hospitals have already which stepped up weekend working, including Guy's and St Thomas' in London, will meet health colleagues nationwide to explain how they did it.
Sir Keir said: "We will use them around the country now, and they have agreed to this. They will go across the country to be deployed to help set up the model in other hospitals as quickly as we can.
"We have already had some discussions about how that will be rolled out from day one."
