DAUK\u2019s GP co-lead Dr Steve Taylor has spoken in the media about some of the funding issues facing general practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr Taylor contributed to a new investigation by Pulse into the \u2018lottery\u2019 of local enhanced services funding experienced by GPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said: \u201cYou could be on the other side of the street from another GP surgery and not be able to offer a service, just because you\u2019re in a different ICB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a lottery, depending on which part of the country you\u2019re in \u2013 you really don\u2019t know what you can get and what you can\u2019t get.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Read the Pulse investigation.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dr Taylor has also spoken to GP Online for its report on how some additional roles reimbursement scheme (ARRS) GPs are facing redundancy or reduced hours due to budgetary issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He said: \u201cIt reflects the complexity of funding streams in general practice … GP practices, the BMA, RCGP have all been asking for money to be moved to the core contract [to help practices hire GPs] rather than it being manipulated via ARRS.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Read the GP Online report in full<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n DAUK is run by frontline doctors for frontline doctors.
