The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how patient feedback is incorporated into the (a) evaluation and (b) refinement of primary care network toolkits.

Answered by Stephen Kinnock

The Primary Care Network (PCN) Estates Toolkit was developed as a practical support tool, to provide PCNs with a flexible framework and to support the process for producing robust primary care investment plans with priorities that align to integrated care systems strategies. The toolkit does not include metrics or patient feedback and therefore we are unable to comment on their effectiveness in this regard.
