In addition to providing routine GP appointments, the SAS service also includes call handling arrangements to enable patients to make an appointment, and the provision of security escorts to attend the appointment. SAS services are required to work towards repatriating patients back to mainstream GP services wherever possible. Current approximate annual contract values are as follows:
