Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the adequacy of current care pathways for patients diagnosed with primary biliary cholangitis.

The NHS.UK website has a conditions page on primary biliary cholangitis, available in an online only format, which provides an overview of the care pathway. NHS England commissions a specialist paediatric liver service from three hospitals, the Birmingham Women's and Children's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, the King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, and the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. This service provides assessment, diagnosis, and management of children with all forms of liver disease, including primary biliary cholangitis.
