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

The profile includes information on opening hours and must be updated when there are changes to a pharmacy’s opening hours, either temporarily or permanently.</p> answering member constituency Harborough answering member printed Neil O'Brien question first answered 24/04/2023 15:59:31 answering member 4679 label Biography information for Neil O'Brien

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/02/2023 answer text <p>The Health Education England (HEE) Performers List Validation by Experience (PLVE) process is in place to enable overseas dentists who have passed the Overseas Registration Examination to join the National Health Service Performers List in a supportive and safe environment. We keep this process under review.</p><p>Provided all the necessary application information is available, an eligible dentist will be accepted into HEE’s PLVE process within four to six weeks. Once confirmed by NHS England, the dentist will join the Performers List at that point, not at the end of the PLVE process. The time then spent practising NHS dentistry with the PLVE model will depend on the support needs of the individual applicant and does not affect their Performers List status<em>.</em></p><p>Dentists entering the Performers List through the PLVE method take time to develop an understanding of the NHS system and to ensure they are safe to practice unsupervised.</p><p><strong><br> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Harborough answering member printed Neil O'Brien question first answered 01/02/2023 13:39:17 answering member 4679 label Biography information for Neil O'Brien
