Annual health checks for people with a learning disability

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Bournemouth and Poole Teaching Primary Care Trust (PCT) should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Bournemouth and Poole Teaching Primary Care Trust (PCT),

In light of your trusts responsibility for commissioning the existing direct enhanced services payment scheme, I would be grateful if could you provide the following information:

1) The overall total of GP surgeries in your trusts area
2) The overall total of GP surgeries in your trusts area who are currently in receipt of direct enhanced services and are therefore expected to offer annual health checks for people with a learning disability.
3) This number as a percentage of the total number of GP surgeries within your trusts area.
4) The names of those GP surgeries in your trusts area currently in receipt of direct enhanced services and therefore offering annual health checks .
5) Any postcode districts within your trusts region that have no GP surgeries in receipt of direct enhanced services and therefore no GP surgeries offering annual health checks.

I look forward to your response.

With thanks,
Clare Lucas

Dear Dianne,

Thank you for your response. There seems to have been one surgery/practice left off the list of surgeries in Dorset as only 51 are listed.

Yours sincerely,

Clare
