Health: Podiatry
- Question
- asked Her Majesty's Government:Further to the Written Answer by Lord Hunt of Kings Heath on 8 May (WA 247), whether they have assessed the extent to which the move of funding for podiatric care for diabetics from the secondary to the primary sector will impact adversely on the success (acknowledged in the National Health Service publication, Diabetic Foot Guide) of the hospital-based multi-disciplinary teams for diabetic foot care; and whether they will take steps to ensure that diabetes foot care services will not be adversely affected by the financial constraints that prevail in some primary care trusts.
- Answer
-
No assessment has been made. The provision of podiatry services for people with diabetes is a matter for local consideration, which should take into account the needs of the local population.
