Sep 3, 2026 56 min

Contact us and share your opinion **eGPlearning Update: RCGP Open Letter, Tech Registries, and System Reform** In this episode, we break down the latest macro shifts hitting primary care—from national policy posturing and contract negotiations to digital health transparency and supply chain disruptions. **Key Topics Covered** * **The RCGP Open Letter:** Analyzing the College’s 5 commitments, the urgent call to protect relational continuity, and whether the letter actually goes far enough to safeguard the partnership model and GP professional integrity. * **Funding and Structural Reform:** Why matching ambition with investment requires overhauling outdated mechanisms like the Carr-Hill formula, contrasting policy rhetoric with front-line clinical leadership perspectives, and asking whether NHS decision-making can ever genuinely be depoliticized. * **Neighbourhood Care & Clinical Leadership:** Placing properly resourced general practice at the heart of integrated neighbourhood teams without letting top-down restructuring dilute autonomy. * **The 6B NHS Tech Registry:** A look at the crowd-sourced/FOI-driven health tech registry—why independent transparency exists, why central NHS systems fail to provide it, and how social validation shapes clinical procurement. * **Drug Shortages:** The ongoing operational reality and clinical risk of supply chain instability in day-to-day practice. --- **Links & Resources Mentioned** * **RCGP Open Letter for a Stronger NHS:** [https://www.rcgp.org.uk/getmedia/39a9c5ae-c41b-4c89-84f0-1f8c7fe6a6f4/Open-Letter-for-a-Stronger-NHS-formatted.pdf](https://www.rcgp.org.uk/getmedia/39a9c5ae-c41b-4c89-84f0-1f8c7fe6a6f4/Open-Letter-for-a-Stronger-NHS-formatted.pdf) * **6B NHS Tech Registry:** [https://nhs-tech.6b.health/](https://nhs-tech.6b.health/) * **GP5T12 Conference Registration:** [https://events.ringcentral.com/events/gp5t12/registration](https://events.ringcentral.com/events/gp5t12/registration) Join Dr Mike as he shares how to g...

Some 40,000 people were signed off with fit notes each working day last year Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) estimated 11 million fit notes were issued in 2025 – the majority by GPs. The CSJ recommended fit note responsibility be moved away from ‘overstretched’ GPs and into a new Work and Health Service and ‘embed employment and occupational health support at the point of sign-off’. See box They also said the total includes fit notes signed off as ‘may be fit for work’ as well as ‘not fit for work’. This is despite the Government introducing legislation in 2022 which expanded fit note certification to other professionals such as nurses, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists. Last year, Government-commissioned research found limited take up of healthcare professionals other than GPs writing fit notes since the 2022 reforms. Thoughts Difficult to treat, maintain relationship, trust whilst enforcing a need to return to work? Move to online consultations removing direct engagement with patients and losing opportunities to support back to work - something thats good for patients Talk of removing this responsibility from GP s for some time Used to be that 3-6m si...
