WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY A. HOWELL OF ST. JOHN, ST. LAWRENCE AND TRINITY
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 24th OCTOBER 2022
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 31st OCTOBER 2022
Question
Given that the implementation of the Jersey Care Model has been paused pending a review, will the Minister explain the need for funding (an anticipated £22 million) between 2023 – 2024 from the Health Insurance Fund and provide details of the proposed expenditure, broken down by subject area with costs, dates for completion and details of how this expenditure will be monitored?
Answer
The Jersey Care Model has been paused pending completion of a review by the Minister for Health and Social Services. The Minister intends to publish the findings of that review shortly. At that point the Minister will advise the Assembly as to whether she is proposing to amend the Government Plan to adjust the total HIF monies invested in health care redesign and digitisation in 2023 and 2024.
As set out in the draft Government Plan 2023 - 2026, £22 million was agreed as part of previous States Assembly decisions for 2023 and 2024, pending the outcome of the Minister’s review and any associated adjustments.
