Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether there will be health area dental recovery plans under plans for dental services to move to integrated care systems.
This question was answered on 3rd June 2021
National Health Service dentistry is currently commissioned by NHS England and NHS Improvement (NHSEI) and regional NHSEI teams have a critical role in planning and delivering recovery of dental services. In the future, developing and delivering plans to meet the health needs of their area will be a key role for integrated commissioning boards, as part of their overall responsibility for population health.
