The employers’ superannuation funding for GP locums will be covered for PMS practices in the same way as for GMS after a year of uncertainty, the GPC has revealed.
The GPC said it understands NHS England told area teams on Monday that following the review of PMS contracts, due to report within weeks, they should hand PMS practices extra funding in line with the amount GMS practices receive to cover employers superannuation funding for locums. The funding will be backdated to April 2013.
