	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/06/2016 answer text <p>We recognise that very real financial and operational challenges face our health and care services. However, we are committed to a sustainable future for our National Health Service.</p><p>The Government has reaffirmed its commitment to the NHS by again committing to increase health funding each year in this parliament, in spite of the continuing fiscal challenges.</p><p>By 2020-21, the Government will increase funding for the NHS by £10 billion a year in real terms compared with 2014-15, to support the implementation of the NHS’s own plan - the NHS Five Year Forward View - to transform services across the country. And we will be giving the NHS £3.8 billion more this year (2016-17), over and above inflation, and almost £6 billion of the £10 billion in the first two years of the six-year period.</p><p>It is not, however, down to funding alone. The health system needs to match the increase in funding with service transformation and it is vitally important that we continue to strive for efficiency and give support to the development of new, more integrated, models of care; to the use of technology and transparency of data to drive up quality and choice for patients; to local areas to determine what is right for them through devolution; and to drive up the focus on prevention.</p><p>The NHS achieving 2-3% net efficiency gains each year until 2020-21 would represent a strong performance but it is achievable. We have already begun introducing measures to help spend taxpayers’ money more efficiently and reduce waste immediately and for the future - making sure every penny possible is spent on patient care.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 06/06/2016 14:41:56 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
