Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will review the status of endometriosis as a possible condition for the NHS outcomes and registry programme.

The NHS England Outcomes and Registries Programme (ORP) was set up to collate device level information that is not easily accessible elsewhere, with the aim of improving patient safety and device recall procedures.

There has recently been an expansion of this data platform to receive non-device-related data in exceptional circumstances, prioritising registry support to clinical services where there are gaps or existing data would otherwise be lost. As endometriosis can be identified through existing means, such as diagnostic coding, we have no plans to bring it in scope of the ORP at this time.
