NHS England also has arrangements in place to help patients who cannot find a local dentist that is accepting new patients.</p><p> </p><p>The proportion of children seeing a dentist at least once a year is already high with 6.8 million children having seen a dentist in the 12 months ending 31 December 2017. This is 110,767 more children than saw a dentist in the 12 month period ending 31 December 2016.</p><p> </p><p>Survey data suggests 75% of children are now decay free at five years old. But there is further to go to ensure all children benefit from this improvement. The proposed new contract being tested includes a clinical pathway which supports dentists to provide the most appropriate preventative care as well as active treatment. Alongside this NHS England is targeting children in areas of particularly high need.</p><p> </p><p>The ‘Starting Well’ programme has been launched in 13 high needs areas and aims to reach children not currently being seen regularly by a dentist. Starting Well core, a complementary programme NHS England is developing, will take the principles of approach and make it available as a broader model to any commissioner based on local assessment of need and priorities. This is expected to be available later in 2018.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 07/03/2018 10:31:58 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/07/2018 answer text <p>No such assessment has been made. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is not the correct route for such requests. The right of access under GDPR confers more personal information than is needed or is justified for insurance underwriting. Accordingly, insurance companies should instead use the established mechanism of the Access to Medical Reports Act 1988 (AMRA) to obtain summary medical reports from general practitioner (GPs). The AMRA allows the GP to charge a reasonable fee to cover the cost of copying the report.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 18/07/2018 16:37:24 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
