@DailyMail @DrSteveTaylor My husband was "diagnosed" with COPD by an A&E Physician's Associate. And then we had to wait nearly a year for further tests to show that "diagnosis" was wrong. But with no feedback loop to A&E that PA continues to think themselves more competent than they are. Terrifying.

My appointment has come through for a gynae appt…. Only 2yrs to go!

Isn’t it funny how even 2yrs from now I know I won’t be able to make this as it’s my daughter’s 18th birthday that day! 🤣

Waiting lists coming down are going really well🤦🏼‍♀️

[GP partner @GPDrYvetteDoc]

Is is true @wesstreeting that GPs are getting fined for going "too" digital?
I've heard of a £4k fine for a surgery sending "too many texts" to their patients
Tell me this isn't true?

@miken231 @NHSEngland This was what my old practice found when it came to needing a new premises.
The bit of government that makes the rules how much space you get for size of patient list, has not joined up with the one that's been paying for PCNs to hire ARRS staff for years. Nowhere near big enough

[Parody RCGP @Parody_RCGP]

Palantir claims that for every £1 that is spent £5 is returned.

Did you know that for every £1 spent on GPs, £14 is returned back!

Yet we have the lowest funding in a decade - they are taking money from us to pay Palantir!

This is not parody.

[Stuart Berry @stuartberry1]

@Heccles94 @Parody_RCGP No official public list of the individual GP surgeries or addresses in that portfolio

No central #NHS or government database that says “these specific surgeries are owned by BlackRock.”

The properties are typically held through:
funds,
joint ventures
or property vehicles

MAHA going well I see

@ankitkant There seems to be a cultural problem with some secondary care staff who seem content to do only what they see as the “job they are paid to do” and no more.Very quick to say - that’s not my area - refer to x , or we can’t assess this until that other condition has been assessed.

[Seb @SebPillon]

@jinnieshinnie Ask yourself why your thoughts aren't

"Why can't a CQC registered specialist provide me with a prescription for a treatment that I need? Why does a GP have to be involved?"

The argument for involving a GP isn't that great in a world where records are shared.

[Ankit Kant @ankitkant]

So many of us are itching to fix system problems. There are so many quick wins. So many. We understand the system like no one else.

Let’s fix one problem a week. Make us accountable. If it doesn’t show improvements in outcomes fire us.

[Margaret McCartney @mgtmccartney]

Delighted to announce opening of my new practice !

Appointments opening soon - join the wait list!

For too long we have demanded evidence from trials before we act - this is just causing needless delays in ACTIONABLE INSIGHT GENERATION.

Instead we will offer:/

@Frank9478968518 @doctor_katie Over COVID the vaccine centres cost 3 x more than the GP to deliver the vaccine.

THey were celebrated with awards and acolades.
Many GP surgeries found that they actually were personally paying to deliver vaccines to their patients. Actually losing money for each one given.

@Parody_RCGP How many sausages ? Is there a third or fourth in the trench ?

[Nat Martin @The_HiggsBoson]

NHS dentistry didn’t fragment overnight.

When funding fails to keep pace, workload and risk rise, and hospital work shifts into primary care, pressure builds.

Contract reform that effectively reduces funding while increasing obligation makes a split model more likely.

[Dr Shivam Sharma @DocShivSharma]

MPs saying there is no money but giving themselves a bigger rise than NHS workers is wild.

[Margaret McCartney @mgtmccartney]

NHS GP reaches the people at greatest need.
NHS GP is massively under resourced.
Many GPs can’t get NHS work.
My prediction: steady increase in people with enough $ go private and poorest left with a patchwork of discontinuous protocol based care with massive gaps.

[Joe Robertson MP @JoePJRobertson]

Clinical and administrative work keeps spilling from hospitals into general practice.

GPs are expected to provide same-day urgent care on demand, while losing a third of their time to admin and follow-up tasks. All with no meaningful funding increase.

You can’t increase access without increasing capacity.

[Ankit Kant @ankitkant]

I came up with a partial solution to the NHS paperwork burden. It's saved the NHS over £2.5 million pounds and saved thousands of admin hours nationally.

I met with NHS England to see if it could be funded. They said there's "no money". Everyday I see what they do choose to spend money on.

I simply pay for it myself.
