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.
