A new primary care service framework to support improvements in the accessiblility and responsiveness of GP services has been developed. This forms part of a suite of documents to support PCTs and practices that will be published over the coming months to support improvements in access and responsiveness.
PCTs can use this framework to negotiate local incentive schemes, capital grants and local enhanced services using the £50m (within their baselines) that was agreed as part of the 08/09 GMS contract negotiations for local investment in improving access and responsiveness.
