Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how much public funding has been allocated by his Department for financial year 2022-23 to support the maintenance of the My Planned Care website; and what proportion of that expenditure will be spent on external contractors.
In 2022/23, £150,000 has been budgeted for enhanced functionality to the My Planned Care Patient Platform, based on patient feedback. Expenditure will be incurred within the National Health Service rather than external contractors.
