promotion of good health and social care. NICE has published a range of guidance products
for the management of skin conditions, including technology appraisals, guidelines
and quality standards, which can be accessed at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a

</p><p>National Health Service commissioners are legally required to fund treatments
recommended by NICE in its technology appraisal guidance.</p><p> </p><p>The Government
takes the issue of ensuring rapid access to innovative therapies very seriously, which
is why on 3 November 2017, we published our response to the Accelerated Access Review.
We set out plans to give patients quicker access to life-changing treatments and make
the United Kingdom the best place in the world for industry to invest and innovate.</p>
