Question Asked
Asked by:
Dr Caroline Johnson (Conservative)
Answer
170 community diagnostic centre (CDCs) sites are operational across England. 110 of these CDCs are described as ‘fully operational’. Of the remaining 60 CDCs, 39 are live and delivering activity on their permanent site but are still operating some services via temporary facilities, and 21 are delivering activity from a nearby temporary location whilst the permanent site is completing construction.
£1.65 billion of capital funding has been made available in 2025/26 for secondary and emergency care, which includes £0.6 billion for investment in diagnostics. This includes funding to enable the completion of 2024/25 schemes. Funding will also support the National Health Service to expand existing CDCs and build up to five new CDCs as part of our Elective Reform Plan.
