Chris Seeks Cost To NHS England Of GP Reimbursement
Christopher Chope Conservative, Christchurch
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the cost to NHS England has been of reimbursing GP practices for providing services to (a) non-UK and (b) non-registered UK citizens in each of the last three years for which information is available.
Andrea Leadsom The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health and Social Care
General practices (GPs) are paid for providing essential services to all their patients via global sum payments, which are weighted to take patient needs into account. Therefore, there are no dedicated GP payments for providing services to non-United Kingdom or non-registered UK citizens, and the Department does not hold data on GP patient lists by nationality.
