FAQ: How do I add my UPR to my Locum Form B?
LocumDeck user? LocumDeck handles this all entirely automatically. You can leave this page and go and make yourself a nice cup of tea.
One of LocumDeck’s most popular features is that it does all this for you, stamping all associated Locum B forms with the same unique UPR.
On 1 October 2022 the NHS pension employee contribution rate tiers changed in England and Wales. The new tiers apply to work that is carried out from 1 October 2022. We have therefore made changes to LocumDeck to help you separate sessions worked before and after 1 October so you can pay the correct pension contributions.
What will change on LocumDeck from 1 October 2022?
LocumDeck will make sure that work done before and after 1 October 2022 gets added to the correct Locum Form A and B. This will allow you to calculate and pay the correct employee contribution rate.
UPR has become irrelevant on Form A and is being removed. It was clarified that UPR is no longer needed to link Form B to the included Form As because this connection is made when the PCSE administrator inputs the Form A data into the PCSE record system.
"Prior to signing up for LocumDeck, I would have to rely on locum agencies or mutual recommendations, then do a lot of paperwork for each surgery myself. Once I signed up for LocumDeck, I just uploaded all my documents, added my availability and started getting automatic bookings. There is no need to worry about invoices any more as everything is available on LocumDeck. Ali, NASGP's Membership Support Manager, was really helpful too!"
