To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have plans to establish a fund for new and improved fracture liaison services.
Baroness Merron
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health and Social Care
The Government is committed to expanding fracture liaison services (FLS), supporting ending the postcode lottery. FLS are a globally recognised care model and can reduce the risk of refracture for people at risk of osteoporosis by up to 40%. Officials are working closely with NHS England to consider how best to support systems to ensure better quality and access to these important preventative services.
