answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2017 answer text <p>General practitioners (GPs) are independent contractors who hold contracts with NHS England to provide primary medical services for the National Health Service. Under the terms of their contract, GPs are required to provide certain medical reports or complete certain forms free of charge to their registered patients. These certificates are those for which a medical report is required by other legislation for example, the Social Security Administration Act, and which are required for the purposes of ensuring public funds are allocated correctly.</p><p> </p><p>The requirement to provide these reports free of charge to patients remains, regardless of the way the practice is managed.</p><p> </p><p>Outside of contractual requirements, GPs also provide a variety of other services which successive governments have regarded as private matters between the patient and the GP providing these services. In such cases, decisions on whether to charge a fee and the level of the fee charged are at the GP’s discretion.</p><p> </p><p>The British Medical Association produces guidance on appropriate fee levels depending on workload. However, it is for individual GPs to decide whether to charge their patients and, if so, the level of any fee.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine grouped question UIN 8673 question first answered 11/09/2017 14:22:40 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
