Chiropractic
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if his Department will consider reviewing the Allied Healthcare Professional status list to include chiropractors as part of the government’s wider review of the NHS.
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.
