Data is not included prior to 2015. GP locums are excluded as improvements have been made to GP locum recording methodology and figures are not comparable prior to December 2017.</p><p> </p><p>The recently published NHS Long Term Plan made a clear commitment to the future of general practice, with primary and community care set to receive at least £4.5 billion more in real terms a year by 2023/24, meaning spending on these services will grow faster than the rising NHS budget. Since the launch of the Long Term Plan, NHS England and the British Medical Association’s General Practitioners Committee have agreed a five-year GP (General Medical Services) contract framework from 2019/20. The new contract framework will be essential to deliver the ambitions set out in the NHS Long Term Plan through strong general practice services.</p> answering member constituency South Ribble answering member printed Seema Kennedy question first answered 14/05/2019 15:19:18 answering member 4455 label Biography information for Seema Kennedy attachment 1 file name PQ252606 Annex 1 GPs per 100000 patients table formatted.docx title Regular GP Table
