Named GP
From 1st April, all practices are required under the 2015-2016 General Medical Services contract to allocate a named accountable GP to all practice patients, including children.
The named accountable GP will take lead responsibility for the co-ordination of all services required under the contract and ensure, based on clinical judgement, they are delivered to the patients where required.
A member of the Practice team will be able to confirm the name of your countable GP. This does not prevent you seeing any Doctor of your choice.
If a patient expresses a preference as to which GP they are assigned to, the Practice will make reasonable efforts to accommodate their request.
