answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/11/2020 answer text <p>When we introduce a new digital service, we ensure that access to general practitioner (GP) appointments via other channels is still available. Patients are still able to book appointments via the telephone and through NHS 111, and the service has the same features as available online. In addition, we have developed alternative ways for people to access digital services, such as booking appointments by proxy, where a family member or carer has access to the internet.</p><p>To support people living in care homes to take up digital GP appointments, NHSX and NHS Digital have negotiated a range of internet connectivity deals for care homes, along with guidance to help care homes choose a suitable internet connection. NHSX will also be distributing tablet devices to care homes so that residents can access digital health appointments and stay connected to loved ones. A 12-month SIM data package will be included for care homes with poor or no WiFi connections.</p> answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries question first answered 25/11/2020 16:46:42 answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries
