<p>The Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme aims to grow and diversify the general
practice workforce. The scheme provides funding for 26,000 additional roles in primary
care networks, to help create bespoke multi-disciplinary teams. General practitioners
are not currently included in the scheme as they are a core role within general practice,
and the recruitment of general practitioners is currently funded through global sum.
We remain committed to growing the general practice workforce as well as number of
doctors in general practice. There were 2,799 more full time equivalent doctors working
in general practice in December 2023, compared to December 2019.</p>
