NHS primary care panel – the GP Contract and Operational Planning Guidance

Pharma Market Access Insights - from Mtech Access

What can we expect to see in primary care in the NHS given recent policy announcements and ongoing uncertainty? What does the new GP Contract tell us about the future of primary care? What are the biggest challenges facing primary care in 2024–25?
In this webinar, Karen Cooper (Senior Consultant – NHS Insight & Interaction, Mtech Access) spoke to a panel of NHS Associates about the current state and future of primary care and what this means for industry. Our panellists were:
- Jack Wagstaff (Place Leader, Surrey Heartlands Health and Care Partnership, Chief Officer for North West Surrey Health and Care Alliance)
- Zafran Azam (Head of Medicines Optimisation and Delivery, Derby City Place)
- Dr Neil Forster (GP and PCN Clinical Director, Northumberland Medical Alliance)
We explore:
- Where NHS primary care is heading and what this means for your strategy and business planning
- Prescribing and decision-making in primary care
- The implications of the GP Contract for PCNs, GPs, patients, and industry
- What this means for integration and the integrated care model
- Policy priorities in practice and what to expect in an election year
- How Pharma, Medtech, and Diagnostics companies can best engage with primary care leaders
