Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how much money the NHS collected in charges for the non-emergency treatment of visitors to the UK in 2017.
The amounts identified and recovered for the 2017/18 financial year will be made available once National Health Service trusts and NHS foundation trusts have published their Annual Accounts.
However, in 2016/17, identified income from charging overseas visitors for NHS services was £81.4 million and cash recovered was £30.4 million.
