Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many patients resident in the devolved administrations accessed sexual health services in England in the last three years for which figures are available; and what was the estimated cost to NHS England of the provision of those services in each of those years.
Data have been provided on the number of contacts with Sexual and Reproductive Health Services in England, from residents of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland for the last two years (2014-15 and 2015-16). Data are not available prior to this, as location of patient residence was not submitted by all providers.
NHS England does not hold data on the costs associated with these contacts. Attendances at genito-urinary medicine (GUM) services is collected separately through the GUMCAD data set. Data are not published in the format requested.
