Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what data his department holds on how much health tourism has cost the NHS in each of the last 5 years.
This question was answered on 8th August 2025
The Department does not currently hold data on the overall cost to the National Health Service of treating complications arising from procedures carried out overseas. However, we are actively exploring ways to better understand the scale and impact of these costs on NHS services.
