Cerebral Palsy
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what estimate he has made of the cost to the public purse of supporting people with cerebral palsy.
- Answer
-
No estimate has been made of the cost to the public purse of supporting people with cerebral palsy.
National Health Service expenditure on cerebral palsy is included in the programme budgeting category ‘neurological problems’, but cannot be separately identified. Aggregate annual NHS expenditure in this category in 2012-13, the latest period for which data is available, was £4.44 billion.
The programme budgeting data return is an analysis of commissioning expenditure by healthcare condition and care centre based on figures provided to NHS England by primary care trusts (PCTs) and PCT successor organisations. Programme budgeting data, as well as further information on how these figures were calculated, can be found on the NHS England website at the following link:
