The contract (and amendments) include a requirement for all patients to be assigned a named accountable GP who has overall responsibility for that patient’s care.

The 2015/16 GMS Contract Guidance (published in March 2015) provides further information on named accountable GPs for all patients. A copy is attached. The guidance states: ‘Where the patient expresses a preference as to which GP they have been assigned, the practice must make reasonable efforts to accommodate this request’. This document provides guidance for commissioners, local medical committees and GP practices.
