In this episode we discuss the recent visit by BMA GPC Chair Katie Bramal-Stainer to a Derbyshire-Lincolnshire-Nottinghamshire LMC event. 

What were some of the questions in the room and what did we learn about contract timelines, content and the future of collective action for General Practice? 

We also discuss news stories covering some sudden and disruptive changes to GP Trainee assessment software, the shortage of yet another common drug (Aspirin!), and additional funding for cancer screening in areas of high deprivation.

And… opportunities to join Gandhi and Andy at two upcoming eGPlearning events…

Calls to end GP-issued fit notes after 40,000 per day issued in 2025
https://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/news/cli...

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 sickness DWP service assessed - this was
