2015 Improving Peoples’ Health Through Advice Allyson Whisker, Citizens Advice

GP Non- health Demand: A Very General Practise  GPs spend 18.7% of their time on non-health matters  Four in five GPs (80%) report that dealing with non-health queries leaves them with decreased time available to treat other patients’ health issues  15% of GPs refer patients to an advice expert based in the surgery  Three quarters (73%) of GPs report that the proportion of time which they have spent dealing with non-health issues as part of consultations has increased over the past year Director of Policy, National Voices “The doctor of the future will give no medicine”

GP Non- health Demand: A Very General Practise Most non-health demand results from personal relationship problems, housing, welfare benefits, unemployment / work-related issues (unrelated to health), debt / financial difficulties and social isolation Most GPs (84%) rely on advice provision in the community to support patients With GPs in England spending almost one fifth of their consultation time on patients’ non- health issues, this translates to an implied cost of nearly £400 million to the health service. Legal Action Group and the Law Society “…a majority of doctors believe that the number of their patients who would have benefited from legal or specialist advice has increased in the past year”

“The main determinants of health are socio-economic. If we want to promote good health, prevent ill health and reduce inequalities in health, we must act on the social determinants that are likely to impair people's health (Marmot 2010). Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) provide advice, help and support to people on a wide range of issues that comprise many of the social determinants of health.” [Derbyshire County Council making the case for GPs advice service]
