The NHS is carrying out work in Devon, Cornwall and
the Isles of Scilly to make sure the patient details
on GP lists are accurate. Letters are being sent to
some patients but not all.
if you do receive a letter, please either confirm your
details or submit any changes. Changes can be made by
returning the form in the prepaid envelope. If your
details are correct you can confirm by freepost,
freephone, via text message or online.
It is important you respond to this letter, as GP
lists do get out of date over time. If we do not have
accurate and up to date information on you then we may
not be able to contact you with, for example, test
results, invitations to national programmes
(vaccinations, health programmes) or to let you know
of any changes to appointments or treatments we may
currently be offering you.
Please respond to this letter within four weeks so
that the NHS can be certain about your details.
Otherwise, the NHS will assume that you have moved
away and begin the process to remove you from our
practice list.
