Thank you @BJGPjournal for publishing our study about continuity of care in general practice, and for disseminating it to the press. The results seem to have made parliamentary impact.

[Sir Jeremy Hunt MP @Jeremy_Hunt]

5/ Move back to the system where everyone has their own GP rather than just being attached to a surgery. A study showed a 25% cut in mortality & 30% drop in hospital visits for people who saw the same GP (keeping our promise to recruit 6000 more GPs will help achieve this).

[Sir Jeremy Hunt MP @Jeremy_Hunt]

We know seeing the same doctor over a long period of time saves lives, so will @SteveBarclay restore continuity of care?

[Sir Jeremy Hunt MP @Jeremy_Hunt]

The evidence is stark: continuity of care by GPs saves lives. So when will the government act? My question to @sajidjavid

[Sir Jeremy Hunt MP @Jeremy_Hunt]

The academic evidence for continuity of care is startling: a 25% reduction in mortality rates and 30% reduction in emergency hospital admissions

Very honoured by this recognition!

Trenger du fastlegen din? RT denne posten!

Måned for måned blir det færre og færre som fastleger i Norge. 134 000 nordmenn er nå uten fastlege. En økning på 10 000 på bare en måned.

Continuity of care matters! https://t.co/cKcQ45DBMb via @YouTube

Length of personal continuity with a GP is strongly associated with lower acute hospital admissions and mortality. OOH = out-of-hours. OR = odds ratio. https://t.co/QwutXteFga
