Social Prescriber Services available as SELF-REFERRAL SERVICE

Great news as the Social Prescribing self-referral is open to all PCN2 Practices and now allows patients registered at East Finchley Medical Practice to self-refer on to the service.

Please note that only the following referral reasons are available to select: Addiction Support, Bereavement Support, Carers Support, Digital Inclusion, Emotional Wellbeing, Employment support, Financial Advice, Loneliness / Isolation. Anyone outside of these reasons of referral, or perhaps more complex in need, would have to be referred via the Practice.

Why do GPs sometimes charge fees?
Your questions answered

Isn't the NHS supposed to be free?

The National Health Service provides most health care to most people free of charge, but there are exceptions: prescription charges have existed since 1951, and there are a number of other services for which fees are charged. Sometimes the charge is made to cover some of the cost of treatment, for example, dental fees; in other cases, it is because the service is not covered by the NHS, for example, medical reports for insurance companies.
