Unpacking the GP Patient Survey 2026

It's published on about the 9th and 10th of July.

Oh, here's one of those stories from the mirror, just as an example.

It's published on about the 9th or 10th of July.

I think the story was on the 10th.

I think the data comes out on the 9th.

So look out for them every year and you'll notice the practice and you'll know to go and look at your practice data.

I believe we're still obliged to review the GP survey as a practice in a practice meeting in some description.

That's always been the case in the past.

So I'm not aware that that's changed.

So we're obliged to kind of look at and respond an action plan to this data.

So it's something to do in the practice over the next few weeks and months.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And worth being aware of, because potentially the organization like CQC may look at this when they come in and look at your practice and stuff.

And it can be used as useful data in some aspects, depending on how you look at the data, which I know is one of the things we're going to talk about as well, isn't it?

Yeah, I think what we'll do is we'll have a look at the – we'll have a little bit of a talk about the data itself, how the survey's conducted.

It's actually really quite transparent in terms of its methodology, so it's worth looking at that.

We'll show you how to get information about how it's conducted, and then we'll have a look at some of the data.

I think we just agreed to do like a head-to-head comparison between Parkside Medical Practice, Team Parkside, and Team Wellspring over here.

So, which we haven't done before recording the episode.

So that's going to be really, really interesting.

And

just to point out, me and Andy have not looked at each other's practices data either.

So we don't know where we rank in comparison to each other.

So this is actually going to be really interesting because I've just realized I agreed to do that without checking that
