Extended access data collection now open
As NHS England will have informed you recently, the third bi-annual extended access collection is now open for submission until the end of Friday 29 September 2017. As set out in the 2016 regulations, all GP practices in England are required to submit an online return twice a year through the Primary Care Web Tool. This will set out what access to appointments the practice offers to patients either itself or through other arrangements, over evenings and weekends.
If you are a new practice manager or senior partner and require access, please ensure you have registered to use the primary care website here: https://www.primarycare.nhs.uk/register.aspx and contact your NHS England regional team to request relevant access.
Further guidance is available here: https://www.england.nhs.uk/commissioning/gp-contract/ or you can contact england.biannual@nhs.net.
