Sollershott Surgery, Letchworth Garden City

Uncategorized

We are pleased to announce that 12PointCare have been successful in the tender process to take over the APMS contract to provide GP Services at Sollershott Surgery in Letchworth with effect from 1st July 2018. The awarded contract is for three years, with an option for NHSE and the CCG to extend for an additional two years thereafter.

We are delighted to have been awarded this contract. We look forward to working with our member practices alongside the existing practice team to support the provision of high quality services to the patients registered at Sollershott Surgery.

In addition, we strongly believe that the holding of this contract will greatly improve the ability of 12PointCare to support all of its practices and patients, by increasing the viability of additional locality wide schemes such as the employment of practice-based pharmacists or the provision of extended GP access.
