The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what estimate he has made of the average cost of testing an adult for HIV.

Answered by Ashley Dalton

Adult HIV testing is commissioned in a range of different circumstances and by different providers, therefore the cost varies depending on these factors. No estimate has been made of the average cost of testing an adult for HIV across all settings.
