PCSE
PCSE have sent a number of updates with regard to their services and developments going forward all of which are listed with links below:

• Stakeholder Bulletin
• Supplies Update 10 May
• Records & Supplies Update 10 May

The GPC have written to NHS England with regard to the problems practices are experiencing and we await a response. If you are still continuing to struggle to get supplies or records please forward the details to janice.foster@nhs.net and we will endeavour to assist – or at the very least use evidence to push for NHS England for a response. Supplies can be ordered through the LMC Buying Group if you are unable to obtain them elsewhere. MidMeds (the LMC Buying Group approved supplier for medical consumables) and have said they can get these items to practices who are in urgent need in the short term whilst Capita attempt to resolve the issues they’ve been having. MidMeds’ contact details are: 0845 0034 212 or email sales@midmeds.co.uk. Practices  can then invoice NHS England for sterile products (needles, syringes & Vacutainers) up until 31 May now by sending the details to: Paul.anderson12@nhs.net or X24PANDERSON, NHS England, X24 Payables K005, Phoenix House, Topcliffe Lane, Wakefield, WF3 1WE.
