NHS England has published the Protocol in respect of locum cover or GP performer payments for parental and sickness leave (‘The Protocol’) April 2017.
London Region has supplemented ‘The Protocol’ with the London Region FAQ: Arrangements for Locum cover payments for absent GP Performers and an updated claim form that should be used by practices, as necessary.
NB: arrangements for phased return payments for sickness leave are currently being agreed between the BMA and NHS Employers. Once this has been finalised NHS England London Region will update the FAQ document.
