BMA teams collate monthly appointment and workforce data onto their website, which is a great resource for signposting PPGs, local press and MPs. November 2023’s data shows that the NHS in England has 1,881 fewer fully qualified FTE GPs than in September 2015.
The government has confirmed that the death certification reforms will be enacted from April 2024, including the role of the medical examiner (ME) becoming statutory.
Once the new death certification process comes into force, all deaths in England and Wales will be independently reviewed by a medical examiner or a coroner.
Health and social care providers can contact The LMC Buying Group to find out how much money they could be saving by using their approved suppliers.
We know how busy you all are - but The BMA need your help, and they need to hear your voice...
The BMA continue to encourage practices to focus on their own team’s wellbeing and take time to reflect on what can be done to protect it (this will also meet the requirements of QOF quality improvement project on staff wellbeing).
