Barbara Hakin letter to PCT/SHA – GP contracts

Click here to view a letter from the DH confirming the governments proposed changes to our contracts.In a nutshell, in return for a 1.5% increase in gross funding, which will clearly be nowhere near enough to cover increasing practice expenses, enormous increases in workload will be required in order to maintain current practice income.Note to the proposed “equitable core funding proposals” which will be of particular interest to PMS practices. These changes will be imposed on the profession if the GPC does not accept them.

Further information to all practices from the GPC on the implications of allthisis expected imminently.
