	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/04/2023 answer text <p>There are no current plans to enable patients to recoup costs from the National Health Service via the Patient Choice Framework for individuals’ use of the independent sector. The NHS Constitution allows patients to be treated by an independent sector provider where available as part of their right to choose. We want to make sure this is offered consistently across the country, which is why we will be working with the independent sector, the NHS and primary care to ensure that referral systems include all appropriate independent sector providers, opening up a full suite of available options for patients.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince question first answered 27/04/2023 11:17:06 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/05/2023 answer text <p>Having met our target to virtually eliminate long waits of two years or more for elective procedures in July 2022, we have now also significantly reduced waits of over 18 months, in line with the targets set out in the elective recovery plan.</p><p> </p><p>As a result of the pandemic, the number of patients waiting over 18 months peaked at almost 125,000 in September 2021. Official NHS England statistics show at the end of March 2023 there were 10,737 patients waiting over 18 months, a reduction of over 91% from this peak.</p><p> </p><p>As with the two year target successfully met in July 2022, we have always been clear that there will be valid reasons why a small number of patients may need to wait more than 18 months, and for the patients that are still waiting local NHS services are working hard to schedule their appointments in line with clinical advice as a priority.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince question first answered 15/05/2023 14:47:29 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/09/2023 answer text <p>The National Health Service conducts regular surveys of its estate to assess the state of the building fabric. These surveys cover a wide range of structural assessments. With particular reference to reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC), the National Health Service has been surveying sites and undertaking RAAC mitigation work since 2019 and has had an active national remediation programme since 2021 to mitigate and monitor the risks posed by RAAC across the NHS estate.</p><p>NHS England has also issued guidance for trusts nationally on how to establish the presence of RAAC in their estate. There is ongoing engagement with trusts on a national and regional level to ensure RAAC is identified across the NHS estate. Where structural surveys identify RAAC in their estate, trusts are inducted into the national remediation programme.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince question first answered 29/09/2023 13:52:16 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince
