Improving Access to primary care for the registered population is seen as a key enabler to deliver the sustainability and transformation of primary medical services.

They meet regularly and are led by GPs working in close collaboration with the GP membership provider organisation. PCNs have engaged appropriate skill mix within their delivery models. The Mid Nottinghamshire CCGs wish to commission extended GP access services that form part of a fully integrated primary care service.
