answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/03/2019 answer text <p>NHS England published comprehensive information leaflets on treatment options for stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse in 2017. The leaflets have helped to ensure that women are aware of the treatments available and the advantages and disadvantages of each option before consenting to treatment.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has considered information needs as part of its development of a guideline on the management of urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse in women, which is due to be published on 2 April 2019. The draft recommendations state that women should be fully informed and supported to make the right decision about their treatment, taking into account the benefits and risks of all the options as well as any individual social or psychological factors that might affect their decision. NICE and NHS England are developing shared decision aids that will support women to make informed decisions about their care. The decision aids will be published alongside the final guideline.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 26/03/2019 17:15:38 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

tabling member constituency	Coventry South
tabling member printed	Mr Jim Cunningham
uin	234680
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/03/2019 answer text <p>Entitlement to free National Health Service care is largely based on being ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom. Being ordinarily resident means, broadly, living here on a lawful and properly settled basis as part of the regular order of his or her life for the time being, with non-European Economic Area nationals subject to immigration control also required to have an immigration status of indefinite leave to remain.</p><p> </p><p>Under the Charging Regulations, there is no reason why a person of no fixed abode cannot pass the ordinarily resident test, if they meet the ordinary residence criteria and are therefore exempt from charges. In determining whether charges are to be made under the Charging Regulations, service providers must make such enquiries as are reasonable in all the circumstances. We expect providers to consider the fact that in some circumstances it will be particularly difficult for a person with no fixed abode to provide documentary evidence of their ordinary residence status.</p><p> </p><p>The NHS will always provide immediately necessary care, including maternity care, to any patient, regardless of their status in relation to the Charging Regulations.</p><p> </p><p>NHS England has produced guidance for general practices clarifying rights of patients and responsibilities of providers when patient register with a general practitioner. Some services continue to remain free to all regardless of residency status, which currently includes primary medical services, the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases and accident and emergency services. Also, some groups of particularly vulnerable overseas visitors remain exempt from charge for all their treatment, including refugees and persons granted asylum, failed asylum seekers receiving specified packages of state support, victims of modern slavery, including human trafficking, and children looked after by a local authority. These exemptions continue to ensure that the most vulnerable in our society can access free healthcare whenever they need it.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 25/03/2019 17:25:30 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
