Andy flies solo to dive into what is arguably the most critical and headline-grabbing issue in general practice right now. Following the imposed contract in April, collective action is already underway—but the conversation has rapidly shifted. We are now seeing serious high-level discussions, BMA ballots, and even parliamentary motions exploring a "Plan B": a move toward a means-tested, subscription-based private GP model reminiscent of NHS dentistry.
Andy breaks down how we got here, the shifting appetite for private work among GPs, and what this means for the future of the profession and patient access.
00:00 – Welcome & Intro: Andy solo update.01:15 – The Backstory: The imposed April contract and why the profession rejected it.03:00 – Collective Action So Far: Data Sharing Agreements (DSAs) and medicine optimisation software.04:45 – The Rise of "Plan B": The LMC Conference vote and the GPDF funding resolutions.07:20 – The Upcoming BMA Plan B Ballot: What a "subscription-based" GP service could look like.09:40 – Parliamentary Traction: The Early Day Motion (EDM) and the DHSC's response.11:15 – Data Check: Just how many GPs are looking to scale up private work? (The Wesleyan Poll).13:30 – Andy’s Reflections: How the BMA using private care as a bargaining chip marks a massive generational shift.

Immediately after our interview with BMS GPC Chair Dr Katie Bramall-Stainer about the GP Contract for 26-27, we recorded our thoughts about the chat. We cover what we learned about the contract, what collective active for GPs could look like this time around, and what the “end game” might be for General Practice and DoH.

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…
