§ Mr. Gareth WardellTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish in theOfficial Report a list of those medical conditions which cannot be treated by hospitals within Wales but can be treated by hospitals within England.
§ Mr. GristInformation on every medical condition which cannot be treated by hospitals within Wales but can be treated by hospitals within England is not held centrally. However, there are a number of health services which, to be clinically effective and economically viable, need to be provided to a population greater than that of Wales or any single English region. Those services, known as supra-regional services, which are provided to the population of Wales and England by hospitals in England, are as follows:
- Chorioncarcinoma Services
- Craniofacial Services
- Endoprosthetic Service for Primary Bone Tumours
- Heart Tranplantation
- Liver Transplantation
- Non-Transplant Liver Services
- Neo-natal and Infant Cardiac Surgery
- Psychiatric Services for Deaf People
- Retinoblastoma Services
- Stereotactic Radiosurgery
