Mr. Yeo

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what proportion of patients who have participated in the Heart Choice pilot have chosen an alternative provider; and what proportion of patients have been treated in the independent sector. [166650]

Miss Melanie Johnson

Of those clinically eligible, the proportion of patients who have participated in the heart choice pilot that have chosen an alternative provider is 50 per cent. We do not hold figures on the breakdown of heart choice between the national health service and independent sector.

This data is based on voluntary returns from NHS trusts during the pilot phase.

Mr. Yeo

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many NHS patients have participated in the Heart Choice pilots. [166651]

Miss Melanie Johnson

The total number of patients that were eligible to participate in the heart choice pilots was 9,090. Of these 6,328 were deemed to be clinically eligible. The number of patients who made a choice was 6,010 and of these, 3,034 opted for treatment elsewhere.

This data is based on voluntary returns from national health service trusts during the pilot phase.
