answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/02/2020 answer text <p>No assessment has been made on access to patient records in relation to demand for general practitioner (GP) appointments.</p><p>However, in some areas medical records are already shared between professionals to support locally commissioned services. Pharmacists have access to a patient’s summary care record (SCR) and where the patient has consented, the SCR allows access to much of the patient’s primary care record. The SCR already supports the newly commissioned Community Pharmacy Consultation Service and a range of other services and advice offered in community pharmacy. These services are designed to make pharmacies the first port of call for minor illness and health advice and to reduce pressure on other parts of the National Health Service, including GPs.</p><p>In other areas, work is progressing to improve access to patient records, including increased interoperability between pharmacy and GP systems.</p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill question first answered 11/02/2020 17:45:51 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/02/2020 answer text <p>NHS Property Services aims to reduce vacant space in its estate by engaging with tenants to make sure that their accommodation meets their operational needs. NHS Property Services has introduced more flexible occupancy options; and incentives to more quickly identify opportunities for the re-let or sale of properties. By March 2019, NHS Property Services had reduced vacant space across its portfolio to 6.9% from 12% in April 2017.</p><p>NHS Property Services works closely with local clinical commissioning groups and National Health Service providers to optimise the estate and where appropriate to release properties for sale which are surplus to local healthcare requirements. Where properties are vacant for over six months without a defined future healthcare use, NHS Property Services will seek to market the property to mitigate ongoing costs locally.</p><p>The current policy is that capital receipts from the sale of surplus sites are reinvested in backlog maintenance in the NHS Property Services estate, according to needs and priorities on a national basis.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 10/02/2020 13:03:50 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar
