Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans his Department has to bring forward legislative proposals for a single tariff price for primary care undergraduate placements.
The Department and Health Education England (HEE) are currently working together to develop a consistent and transparent payment mechanism for placements in primary care settings.
Further information around the proposed funding arrangements for 2018-19 will be confirmed in March 2018 as part of the HEE budget setting process.
