GHA Ask Public to Cancel GP Appointments Which are no Longer Required
The GHA recently launched a complete overhaul of the Primary Care Centre appointment system as part of its Reset, Restart and Recover programme. This saw, amongst other things, an additional 490 GP appointments made available per week, resulting in a total of 11,600 available appointments per month i.e. 2,700 appointments per week and new call flow system measures introduced to prioritise urgent appointments providing clinical advice when on the day appointments were exhausted. The GHA also introduced an arrangement whereby patients could book in advance for non-urgent matters and follow ups. Further reforms such as the introduction of a new mobile health unit will be introduced very soon.
