Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department plans to take to ensure that specialties such as HIV and sexual health with tariffs are reimbursed within the Integrated care systems framework.

Where delivered by secondary healthcare providers, reimbursement of activities in specialties such as HIV and sexual health is subject to the NHS Payment Scheme rules, which is designed to support the delivery of more and better healthcare within the level of funding available. These services are funded through allocations to commissioners who agree contract values with providers who undertake the activity.
