Fractures
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will estimate the overall cost of linking a Fracture Liaison Service to every hospital in England.
- Answer
-
The provision of fracture liaison services (FLS) is a matter for local clinical commissioning groups.
Whilst programme budgeting data provides figures for annual National Health Service spend on musculoskeletal services in England, the cost of treating individual musculoskeletal conditions, such as osteoporosis, or specific services such as linking a FLS to every hospital in England, is not available as part of this data.
