To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they expect to publish a progress report on the 10-year PET-CT NHS England contract awarded to Alliance Medical in January 2015.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they expect to publish a progress report on the 10-year PET-CT NHS England contract awarded to Alliance Medical in January 2015.
NHS England has put in place robust governance arrangements to support the national positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET CT) contract, including regular reviews of the national contract, to ensure that services are commenced as planned, securing significant benefits for patients. As the contract was not fully mobilised until December 2015, NHS England plans to review the progress made over the first year in April 2016 and would be happy to make this report available.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, on what grounds a contract to run NHS PET-CT cancer scans was awarded to Alliance Medical.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, on what grounds a contract to run NHS PET-CT cancer scans was awarded to Alliance Medical.
NHS England has moved to increase patient access to vital diagnostic tests in cancer care, with an expansion of positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT) scanning.
The new services will be provided by a network including Alliance Medical Limited, The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, local National Health Service and charitable partners, and a number of leading academic institutions. Key benefits to patients will include:
- Greater value for money, with the cost of scans reducing by almost 18% from current prices;
- £87 million investment over 10 years, at 30 different sites across England to install new scanners and improve the current infrastructure;
- increased patient access to services, including the provision of PET-CT scanning at five new locations (Bath, Bristol, Carlisle, Lincoln and Truro), where there is currently no provision at all;
- faster production of reports, meaning patients receive test results more quickly, thereby reducing the stress of waiting, and allowing treatment to start earlier; and
- a substantial number of PET-CT scans at no additional cost to support the research and clinical trials capability of the national network, not only in cancer, but also in new applications such as dementia, to provide the evidence needed to develop and enhance services for patients.
