Liver Diseases
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans his Department has to increase funding for liver disease, including non-alcoholic cirrhosis care.
- Answer
-
Services to manage and treat patients with liver disease are commissioned at a local level and are considered alongside other healthcare priorities. Specific investment in services is decided locally, reflecting local population need.
The liver transformation programme has developed a data pack for regional commissioners using public health Fingertips data, to raise awareness of incidence and prevalence of liver disease. It is for commissioners in integrated care boards to determine how best to use this information as part of local commissioning decisions.
