PCT Support

Promotional campaigns and Department of Health Targets - As well as practices having to meet deadlines and targets PCTs too face similar pressure from the Strategic Health Authorities, Health Care Commission and The Department of Health. It is therefore vital for PCTs that practices under their patch are conforming to the required standards. We provide PCTs with security that should a practice be struggling they have someone to call upon to give that little required push.

Care taking of practices – as more and more practices are being put out to tender, with APMS (Alternative Provider Medical Services) bidding to secure these contracts on occasions PCTs are left in a situation where a practice may require short time care taking. We provide a robust care taking and hand over service enabling a smooth transition with minimal distress to patients.

Financial Services

The financial situation of any organisation is always a good indication to how well the organisation is performing (albeit this is not always the case). However with raising costs of supplies and staffing and in addition cutbacks across the health sector this is not always something that is easily achievable. With the numerous and varied streams of income (QOF, MPIG, GLOBAL SUM, Enhanced Service Payments, PPA reimbursements etc ) GP finances can be even for the astute financial mind difficult to grasp. Therefore you can rest assured that with almost 30 years combined experience running GP practices we can provide you with practical tips on ensuring your profitability is at its maximum.

We also offer Payroll services (wage slips, P45 etc), and throughout the years have established good relationships with a whole host of suppliers to ensure you get the best possible deal on all your purchases.

Even if its just general advice on any matter related to finance we are sure you will find our services of immense benefit.
