Notes

The NHS provides most health care free of charge but as GPs are generally independent contractors and not employed directly by the government they charge for certain services not covered by their NHS contract. These fees help cover staff costs and the costs of maintaining the building.

Examples of non-NHS services for which GPs can charge their own registered patients include:

· Insurance reports for accident or sickness,

· fitness to fly or take part in activities,

· pre-employment medicals, HGV medicals,

· private prescriptions eg for malaria

Examples of non-NHS services for which GPs can charge other institutions:

· Life assurance or income protection reports,

· some reports for the department of work and pensions,and DVLA,

· reports for local authorities eg fostering or adoption.

It may seem that GPs are charging just for their signature but it is a condition of staying on the Medical Register that they sign only what they know to be true, which may involve studying the patient’s whole medical record.

If you have any questions about this please contact our practice manager on 0118 9697303

Acupuncture - 5 Element and Traditional Chinese Medicine

Acupuncture is now being held at our surgery all day Thursdays from 9.15 am

this is a non-NHS service

Acupuncture is a branch of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is one of the oldest medical systems, still practiced today. This speaks much for the efficiency of treatment and for the laws and principles on which it is based.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine everyone has their own optimum state of health. It is said to be balanced in body, mind and spirit. All important factors, if life is to be enjoyed to the full.

By going for acupuncture you will experience how ancient wisdom can support rigors of modern life.

fee: £30 per session to Woodley Centre Surgery patients
