Microprocessor Knees
EDM number 907 in 2015-16, proposed by Jim Fitzpatrick on 05/01/2016.
Categorised under the topics of Health finance and Health services.
That this House expresses serious concern at the decision of NHS England to delay the clinical commissioning policy (D01X02) on prosthetics (microprocessor knees) for lower limb loss that has been on hold since April 2013; recognises that this policy is needed to ensure that NHS amputee patients can access appropriate treatment to enable them to live their lives to the full; notes that this policy has been accepted in principle, although funding has been denied for these patients; and calls on the Government and NHS England to ensure appropriate funding for this policy so that it can be implemented before June 2016.
This motion has been signed by a total of 23 MPs.
