Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when he plans to announce the next phase of modern service frameworks.

Early priorities for Modern Service Frameworks will include cardiovascular disease, sepsis, severe mental illness and the first ever service framework for frailty and dementia. As advised by the National Quality Board, the Government will consider other conditions for future phases of MSFs and has recently announced an MSF on palliative and end-of-life care.
