The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to support patients with pulmonary fibrosis in Lincolnshire.

Answered by Karin Smyth

It is for the Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board, working closely with National Health Service providers and other stakeholders, to commission services to meet the needs to their population and deliver value for the taxpayer.

I understand that a range of services, across primary and secondary care, are in place in Lincolnshire to support the diagnosis, treatment, and management of patients with pulmonary fibrosis, including at the United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust.
