question text	To ask His Majesty's Government what was the cost to the NHS of missed appointments at (1) hospitals, and (2) GP surgeries, in each of the past five years.
tabling member printed	Lord Swire
uin	HL4012
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/05/2024 answer text <p>It is not possible to produce an estimate of the true cost to the National Health Service of these missed appointments, as this will depend on whether NHS staff were still able to use the time productively, for example by seeing other patients instead, or doing other work. NHS England advises local NHS organisations, general practices and trusts to plan for preventing and dealing with missed appointments. These include ensuring patients can cancel appointments in convenient ways, such as by text message or through online cancellation forms and offering telephone consultations if these better suit the patients’ requirements.</p> answering member printed Lord Markham question first answered 01/05/2024 13:15:38 answering member 4948 label Biography information for Lord Markham

question text	To ask His Majesty's Government what progress they have made on integrating social care and the NHS.
tabling member printed	Lord Swire
uin	HL3964
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/04/2024 answer text <p>The Health and Care Act 2022 established integrated care systems, reforming how health and adult social care work together by putting partnership at the heart of planning. The Government has published guidance for integrated care partnerships (ICPs), on the statutory requirement for each ICP to publish an Integrated Care Strategy to address the health, social care, and public health needs of their system. All ICPs have now published their integrated care strategies.</p><p>The integration of health and social care is often best achieved through collaboration across smaller geographies within integrated care systems called places. Since the Health and Care Act 2022, we have seen good progress in the development of place-based arrangements to integrate health and social care. In October 2023, we published our Shared Outcomes Toolkit designed to help place-based partnerships develop shared outcomes as a powerful means of promoting integrated working and joined up care. We also issued a call for evidence as part of our review of Section 75 of the NHS Act 2006, which permits local authorities and National Health Service bodies to pool budgets, enabling joint commissioning and the commissioning of integrated services. The findings of this review will be shared in due course.</p> answering member printed Lord Markham question first answered 25/04/2024 14:16:30 answering member 4948 label Biography information for Lord Markham

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/05/2024 answer text <p>As announced in the Autumn Statement 2022, we listened to the concerns of local government and made the decision to delay the rollout of charging reforms from October 2023 to October 2025. These reforms include the introduction of a cap on personal care costs, and a more generous adult social care means test. The Government has been considering what form the rollout of charging reform from October 2025 will take.</p> answering member printed Lord Markham question first answered 09/05/2024 11:26:28 answering member 4948 label Biography information for Lord Markham
