Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many and what proportion of online applications for Healthy Start prepaid cards, submitted by beneficiaries already in receipt of the paper vouchers, have been rejected and, of these, how many rejections have been overturned.
The NHS Business Services Authority does not collect the information requested. Existing Healthy Start beneficiaries who believe they are eligible and have had an unsuccessful online application are encouraged to apply again.
