I have been able to find the number of claims of exempt patients but not the actual number of patients that have had exemptions. Date range: 01/01/2018 – 02/09/2023 ##Response I am writing to advise you that following a search of our paper and electronic records, I have established that the information you requested is not held by the NHS Business Services Authority. We do not know who would hold this information requested. There are so many different types of exemptions and we do not hold information on these.
