NHS: I will make it easier to see a GP, promises health secretary
The government is promising to improve access to GPs, including same-day appointments for those that need them, as part of a new plan in England.
Ms Coffey is due to announce the plan, which will also cover hospital services, in the House of Commons, on Thursday. Until now, much of the extra money available to general practice for new staff has had to be spent on non-nurse staff such as physiotherapists and pharmacists. Our Plan for Patients will also detail the support the hospital system will receive for ambulances and A&E as well as to tackle the backlog in routine treatments.
