The below Parliamentary question was asked by Alan Campbell on 2015-10-22.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many patients referred to the About Health Group from practices in the North Tyneside Clinical Commissioning Group under the General Practitioners’ Referral Management System were subsequently refused treatment.

NHS North Tyneside Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) has introduced a formal referral management system across a small number of clinical specialties. This is a local initiative and not part of a wider scheme. The data requested are not collected centrally. This is a matter for the North Tyneside CCG who can advise on data availability.
