<p>Information on how many integrated care boards (ICBs) have introduced community
audiology services is not held centrally by the Department or NHS England. As part
of an ICB self-assessment on the introduction of self-referral, conducted in September
2023, 26 ICBs reported having self-referral in place for community audiology in one
or more services, with more ICBs reporting they had plans to introduce it later in
the year, or as part of recommissioning arrangements for 2024/25.</p>
