Chiropractic
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if his Department will (a) support further integration of chiropractic care into NHS services across Tatton and (b) give chiropractors Allied Healthcare Professional status.
Answered by Karin Smyth
Integrated care boards are able to make independent decisions on which health professionals they employ and may commission a limited amount of chiropractic treatment.
There are no plans by either the Department or NHS England to review the health and care professions that are classified as an allied health profession.
