Many GPs are dissatisfied with changes to how income from treating patients with medical and GP visit cards will be taxed this year. Revenue guidance proposed that GMS income would be treated as individual income, leading to concerns among clinics. Amendments to the Finance Act were introduced in December, but a survey found that 44.1% of GPs believe this does not rectify the situation for them or their practice. Concerns were raised about extra costs, stress, and the risk of doctors resigning from GMS lists. Some GPs may resign or consider leaving general practice due to the changes. The changes are expected to most affect smaller practices and will make things more difficult for GPs.
