Hemel Hempstead is covered by West Hertfordshire primary care trust (PCT). PCTs fund primary care and hospital care services from their revenue allocations. The following table provides the funding allocated to West Hertfordshire PCT for 2009-10 and 2010-11.

Revenue allocations post 2010-11 have not yet been determined.
