Primary care in 2015 Primary care provides 90% of NHS contacts with only 9% of the budget Consultations in general practice increased by 75% between 1995 and 2009 There has been an increased clinical workload in general practice of over 40% since with evidence of; – Increasing disease prevalence and diagnosis – Patients living longer with disease Increasing patient expectations Increasing demand for GP appointments Increasing workforce pressures, such as ageing workforce, insufficient trainees to meet future need and demands on GP time
NHS England View of General Practice: 1.Proactive co-ordination of care, particularly for people with long term conditions and more complex health and care problems. 2.Holistic care: addressing people’s physical health needs, mental health needs and social care needs in the round. 3.Ensuring fast, responsive access to care and preventing avoidable emergency admissions and A&E attendances. 4.Promoting health and wellbeing, reducing inequalities and preventing ill- health and illness progression at individual and community level. 5.Personalising care by involving and supporting patients and carers more fully in managing their own health and care. 6.Ensuring consistently high quality and value of care: effectiveness, safety and patient experience.
