Out of Area Registration

As from 5th January 2015 practices in England can consider registering patients that live outside of the practice area where it is practical and clinically appropriate to do so.  Patients registered in this way would not be entitled to home visits from the practice.

The partners have decided not to take this option up at the present time until we have received assurances that home visits, and other care, has been appropriately set up.
