Please note: In this episode, we mention that the RCGP allows four attempts at GP exams - but in fact the college allows five in exceptional cases.

The GPonline team looks at how much GPs are earning after figures for 2022/23 were published, as well as the uplift to this year’s GP contract and what that could mean for GP partner pay.

They also discuss a report from the Tony Blair Institute - a think tank set up by the former prime minister - about AI and the NHS and what that had to say about general practice.

And they talk about a legal ruling last week that could lead to a change in the rules for RCGP exam resists for GP registrars who are disabled.

Our good news story this week is about a group of practices who are downsizing their PCN.

This episode was presented by GPonline editor Emma Bower, deputy editor Nick Bostock and senior news reporter Kimberley Hackett. It was produced by Czarina Deen.
