NHS England (London) wrote to affected practices at the end of September giving notice of this change.  If you are not one of the practices that received a letter, but you have claimed in the past, please note that claims in future will not be accepted.

If you have any questions with regards this letter, please email nhscb.lon-sth-pcc@nhs.net.
