The latest BMA GP Opinion Survey has opened, and we need to hear from all GPs across the country.
This annual survey gathers GPs’ views on current issues and opportunities facing General Practice, helping to influence and inform this year’s contract negotiations in addition to our longer-term strategy of promoting and protecting the future of General Practice.
The survey is open to all GPs in England, including partners, salarieds, locums, and GP registrars at ST3 and above. It is open to GPs working in all settings and practices, wider primary care roles, trusts, urgent care, and secure or out-of-hours settings.
Participants do not need to be a member of the BMA to participate but we will need a GMC number to ensure that responses are coming from eligible GPs based in England. All responses will be anonymised.
The survey will close on Monday, 11 November at 9am. We urge you to complete the survey as soon as possible, to ensure GPC England’s negotiating position is made as strong as possible.
