Mr. Stephen O'Brien:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health how much money has been claimed from the NHS by each other EU member state through the European Health Insurance Card and its predecessors in each of the last 11 years. [249786]
Dawn Primarolo:
The following table shows the amounts claimed by other European Economic Area (EEA) member states for each of the last seven calendar claim years. Comparable information prior to 2002 is not available. The amounts are combined claims for temporary visitors (via European Health Insurance Cards), posted workers (via E106 forms) and referrals for treatment in other EEA countries (via E112 forms) as, due to the nature of the claims system between member states, it is not possible to disaggregate this data. The figures in the table reflect the fact that EEA medical costs are typically submitted by EEA member states (including the United Kingdom) one to three, and sometimes more, years in arrears.
Claims submitted under Article 93 of European Union Regulation (EEC) No 574/72 initial claim values (£ equivalent) by calendar claim year

Health Services: Stroud
Mr. Drew:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what progress is being made in the provision of a new health facility in the Cam and Dunley area in Stroud constituency; and whether he plans to re-use the Berkeley Hospital site. [247935]

We have been advised by the South West strategic health authority that the Gloucestershire primary care trust is continuing to work with the local community to develop new ways of delivering health and social care services to provide care closer to home. This includes looking at health needs, patient and carer benefits and service developments that are effective and make maximum use of new technology and staff skills.

Note s :
1. A finished consultant episode (FCE) is defined as a continuous period of admitted patient care under one consultant within one healthcare provider. FCEs are counted against the year in which they end.
2. The figures do not represent the number of different patients, as a person may have more than one episode of care within the same stay in hospital or in different stays in the same year.
