To ensure patients can continue to access primary care, practices are being asked to opt into the autumn booster vaccine delivery scheme only if they and local commissioners, are satisfied that practices can deliver business as usual services at the same time. Primary Care Networks (PCNs) are encouraged to make use of the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme, representing funding for an average of 12-13 additional full time equivalent members of staff in post for each PCN. To further support PCNs, the recent GP contract package provides £43 million leadership and management funding for the remainder of this year.</p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill question first answered 14/09/2021 15:22:31 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill
