Some services provided are not covered under our contract with the NHS and therefore attract charges.
Examples include the following:
- To Whom it May Concern
- Medicals for pre-employment, sports and driving requirements (HGV, PSV etc.)
- Insurance claim forms
- Prescriptions for taking medication abroad
- Private sick notes
- Vaccination certificates
The fees charged are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales. As they are not covered under our contract and are done outside of NHS hours, they can take a minimum of 8 weeks.
Some reports will have their own forms supplied by the organisation, which must be completed at the practice. In these cases, please leave the form with the reception with your request.
Otherwise, if you require the practice to prepare a letter of support or another type of report, please come to the surgery to complete an Non-NHS request form. Your request will not be carried out before payment is made. Payments to be made in cash.
