It is important to understand that the completion by doctors of forms/reports is not core NHS work. It is private work undertaken by your GPs in their own time and not their usual surgery NHS time.
Please contact reception for information on the chargeable services we provide.
Please try to be patient – NHS work does and must always take priority over private work.
The fees charged are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales and our reception staff will be happy to advise you about them along with appointment availability for any medical examinations required.
- 1. Forms or reports such as private medical insurance claims, holiday cancellations, sickness or accident reports should be brought or sent to the surgery. It will then be given to your doctor for completion. There will be a charge for this, payable before completion of the form.
- 2. Insurance forms are reports compiled from your medical records for purposes such as life assurance, mortgages etc. These forms may appear to take some time to complete, as it is not uncommon for it to take up to one month between you signing the consent form/request for information and the surgery receiving the documentation. Further delays can occur if a doctor is on holiday. Please be patient.
