GP practices closing, redundancies, unemployed GPs & cuts in patient access

This is not a time to release information in the ‘usual way’.
That’s the reason GPs are where they are, 20% cuts in £/patient funding & uncertainty over the future won’t help.

Imagine what they could provide without cuts in funding
£165 per patient per year for everything (Ave 7 appts plus all admin,staff, buildings)
This has been cut £35 real terms in the past 8 yrs
Average number of appts 7
No more payments for more access
GPs have subsidised the 20% increase in workload/appts over the same period
We need to negotiate that contract- or prep mass resignations
Yes, I used the words “service user” (shudder)
