EHH sessional open meeting, Tuesday 31 January 2017

Engage and Connect – Catch up with what all Sessional GPs MUST know

Are you salaried?

Who could be employing you if MCPs potentially take over GMS and PMS?
What is an MCP? Would you even have a choice in working for one?
Would they offer an NHS pension? What about CPD, sick/parental leave?
How can you guarantee indemnity reimbursement will get passed to you?

Do you locum?

How would you feel about having no choice but being employed by an MCP?
Could a GP be forced into 8-8 working if they don’t want it?
What power will new MCPs have to change your freelance working?

Come and find out the answers.

Find out how your LMC is working to support you.

Tell the LMC what problems you’re facing.
