Heart Diseases: Diagnosis
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment her department has made of the potential impact of funding for earlier diagnosis and specialist heart failure services on NHS expenditure associated with emergency admissions.
- Answer
-
On the provision of NT-proBNP point-of-care testing, I refer the Hon. Member to the answer provided on 5 June 2025 in response to Question 54244. More broadly, the Cardiovascular Diesease Modern Service Framework sets out the Department's approach to prevention and reduced hospital admissions and is available at the following link:

However, the Department does not hold the specific estimate requested.
