General Practitioners: Garston and Halewood

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he will enable Liverpool CCG to award General Medical Contracts rather than continue with Alternative Provider Medical Services Contracts to ensure the continuation of GP services currently being provided by Primary Care Connect in the Garston and Halewood Constituency.

Answer

The current Alternative Provider Medical Services provider has given notice to terminate their contracts. NHS Liverpool Clinical Commissioning Group is now working with primary care providers in Liverpool to identify an alternate provider or group of providers, that may include an existing General Medical Services contract holder, to run the affected services to ensure continuity for patients.
