Londonwide LMCs

Londonwide LMCs The professional voice of London General Practice.

Londonwide Local Medical Committees (LMCs) is here to support and represent the 6000+ GPs and their practices in the capital. We are the professional voice of general practice in London and we strive to help all members of the practice team. Londonwide LMCs provides advice and guidance on a range of issues from contractual disputes to new policies and what they really mean for General Practice. We

are focussed on ensuring that London’s GPs and their practices have access to the information and support they need to help them provide the best possible service to their patients. We frequently negotiate pan-London agreements that will save both practices and Primary Care Organisations (PCOs) time and confusion when it comes to implementation. From practice issues to individual concerns, your local LMC, made up of locally elected GPs and practice staff, and the Londonwide LMCs office staff are available for free, confidential advice.

Our CEO, Dr Lisa Harrod-Rothwell, along with LMC members Dr Paul O'Reilly and Lucie Lehane have been spelling out the impact of NHS England's new, over-zealous list cleansing process. The changes mean vulnerable patients losing GP access and practices being financially destabilised.

We know many practices are concerned about large numbers of erroneous patient de-registrations as part of NHS England's new list cleanse regime. Our guidance has helpful resources to communicate to patients. We have also been raising this issue with MPs, charities, national media, NHS leaders and local government, to name but a few.

Changes implemented in October mean patients with an FP69 flag applied are removed from practices after three months rather than six London’s diverse, highly mobile population makes it particularly vulnerable to erroneous de-registrations.
