The NASGP first came up with the concept of the Sessional GP
Support Team (SGPST) in 2002 as a means of enabling isolated Freelance GPs (FGPs)
to team up with local colleagues to share resources and be more involved in
local NHS structures and processes.
The aFGP Scheme is the concept of a formal relationship between an individual
Freelance GP and a GP practice that allows both parties to benefit from each
other.
In its simplest form, our idea was for there to be in place a 'facilitator' to
support those GPs in their day-to-day management of work (bookings, audit,
payments, billing, superannuation, appraisal, information cascades, meetings,
prescribing etc) together with some form of clinical 'leadership'.
This concept is all very well if a SGPST is already in existence in the GP's
local area, or if one can afford to invest in setting up a SGPST privately with
other like-minded colleagues. But for those FGPs not able to access such a group
or who are not keen to work in a team-based environment, there are few other
options left to them to easily access various means of support enjoyed by
practice/team-based GPs.
To this end, we are exploring ways in which an individual FGP can become
affiliated to a practice and are proposing the new concept of an Affiliate FGP
(aFGP).
