Orthopaedics
Mr. Andrew Smith:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what progress her Department is making on the tariff for payment by results in orthopaedic hospitals. [138601]
Andy Burnham:
The Department of Health published the Options for the Future of Payment by Results: 2008-09 to 2010-11 consultation document on 15 March 2007. The consultation document puts forward proposals for developing payment by results for specialist services, which includes specialist orthopaedic services. A response to the consultation will be published later this year. Copies of the consultation document have been placed in the Library.
Departmental officials continue to work closely with specialist orthopaedic hospitals and the specialist orthopaedic alliance. The latest meeting with representatives from specialist orthopaedic hospitals was on 22 May 2007 and with the specialist orthopaedic alliance on 2 May 2007. The Secretary of State for Health and the Minister of State with responsibility for delivery and reform also met with representatives from all specialist hospitals on 22 February 2007.

Palliative Care: Young People
Mr. MacDougall:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what plans her Department has for the funding of the provision of palliative care for (a) children and (b) young people; and if she will make a statement. [139773]
Caroline Flint:
The Government will consider the recommendations of the independent review of childrens palliative care and their implications for life-limited children and young people in England in the context of the comprehensive spending review. This will be considered in the context of the wider recommendations from the HM Treasury/Department for Education and Skills Disabled Childrens Review. The Department is also providing £27 million of extra funding to childrens hospice services in England over three years from 2006. The first years payments were made to 36 providers in October 2006.
Patientline
Mr. MacShane:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what recent meetings her Department has had with Patientline; what the outcomes were of those meetings; and if she will make a statement. [138060]
Andy Burnham:
Since the publication of the bedside televisions and telephones (Patient Power) review group report on 23 February 2007, the Department has met once with Patientline to discuss what further work can be done to reduce the cost of incoming calls. This meeting was commercial and in confidence. Work is on-going to find a solution to the issue of the bedside telephone charges.
