Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, which cancer screening programmes have been run in part or entirely by private companies since 2010.
NHS England contracts at a local level for cancer screening programmes and therefore related information is held by NHS England local teams.
In relation to the breast screening programme, NHS England has contracted with one independent sector provider – InHealth – which delivers screening services in three areas which are North and East Devon, Outer North East London, and Surrey and North East Hampshire.
