Department of Health and Social Care written question – answered at on 11 February 2025.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to shift care from hospitals into the community.
We are determined to transform the NHS into a neighbourhood health service. As a downpayment we have announced the biggest boost to GP funding in years - an extra £889 million.
However, the reform needed to shift health care from hospital to community will come through our 10 year plan.
We are also making the biggest investment into hospices in a generation, boosting the Disabled Facilities Grant by £86 million and implementing an Elective Reform Plan that will see more tests and scans delivered in the community.
