National Health Service commissioners determine funding for specific local health services. In September 2021, NHS England published ‘National Bundle of Care for Children and Young People with Asthma: Phase one’ which sets out standards for the care pathway for children and young people with asthma. This includes assessments for patients on environmental impacts such as indoor and outdoor air quality.
