GP surgery business rate refunds to be sent to NHS England
NHS England wrote to all practice in March following appeals that were lodged with the Valuation Office Agency regarding business rate refunds.
Local Authorities are in the process of issuing business rate refunds together with supporting paperwork to practices. Where the GP Practice is the named ratepayer, these refunds will be sent directly to the practice not to NHS England.
As business rates are reimbursed in full by NHS England any refunds received from Local Authorities will need to be returned to NHS England.
NHS England is working with GL Hearn to collate and verify all business rate refunds.
Some GP Practices have already paid rate refunds to NHS England and provided them with supporting paperwork.
For those practices who have received a refund of rates and are awaiting further guidance, please can you now transfer the refund to the following bank account:
Account Name: NHS England Client Account
Account Number: 33118525
Sort Code: 20-37-75
Bank: Barclays Bank plc
Reference: (Please use your Practice Code)
Please send copies of all supporting paperwork to GL Hearn’s dedicated email address: NHSEngland.rates@glhearn.com.
