<p>The commissioning of establishing local services in the National Health Service
is a matter for integrated care boards. The Government has no plans at this time to
roll out hubs nationally.</p><p>Based upon current schemes which are either operational
or under development in England, and assuming a facility floorplan of 3,000 square
metres, the construction of a single walk-in hub service would cost £21.4 million
in 2024/25 prices. Ongoing running costs for each building could be approximately
£2 million to £2.3 million dependent on whether it was operational seven days a week
and included wider primary care services such as dentistry.</p>
