Clinical commissioning groups (CCGS) will be reimbursed for the cost of flash glucose monitoring sensors for those who meet these criteria, which could amount to up to 20% of their type 1 diabetes populations. CCGs can also locally choose to fund flash glucose monitoring for other patients with diabetes. The guidance advises that as part of their annual review process, patients with diabetes should be assessed for suitability for flash glucose monitoring. This process can also form part of a review for a different purpose, if that occurs earlier. This will promote a systematic approach to increasing take up.<\/p>"}

The Department is aware of Asthma UK\u2019s campaign in relation to prescription charges. The Department does not have plans to review the current system.

To support those with greatest need who do not qualify for an exemption, cost of the prescription pre-payment certificates were frozen for another year. A holder of a 12-month certificate can get all the prescriptions they need for just £2 per week.<\/p>"}

Preparation to implement the extension of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination programme to boys is progressing well. NHS England has carried out a series of assurance surveys to assess the preparedness of the system for the extension of the HPV vaccination programme to boys, specifically covering the service provision, delivery, data collection and coverage. The outcome of that exercise has shown that roll-out is on track for the 2019/20 academic year.<\/p>
Public Health England is undertaking research with families and parents of young boys to ensure that we are able to communicate the benefits of the HPV vaccine and ensure parity with the girls\u2019 programme.<\/p>"}

NHS England commissions breast cancer screening services, according to the published national service specifications. The Breast Cancer Screening Programme service specification includes provision for the surveillance of high risk women for early detection of breast cancer (including those with the BRCA 1 and 2 genes) and timely referral to treatment as appropriate. Specifically, following an assessment by specialised services, and referral from a genetics or oncology service, high risk women who meet the eligibility criteria (as outlined in the published guidance) will be included in the screening programme at a younger age and according to different protocols to the general population.<\/p>"}
