The 2015-2016 GP contract in England extends the requirement to provide a named accountable GP to all patients, rather than just those over 75. The contract remains ‘practice based’, so overall responsibility for patient care has not changed.The role of the named GP is to take responsibility for the co-ordination of all appropriate services and ensure they are delivered where required (based on the named GP’s clinical judgement) to each of their patients.Having a named doctor means that your named doctor will:• Take the lead in ensuring that we offer you all the appropriate services that we can.• Work with relevant associated health and social care professionals where necessary for your care.• Help to ensure that we recognise and respond to your physical and psychological needs.• Ensure that you have access to a health check if you request one.
