Over the summer, we carried out a review of GP fees.
We were prompted to do this as many of you had got in touch about a sudden increase in costs for seeing a doctor – more than £10 in some instances – just before the Government announced their £20 subsidy for standard appointments and free appointments for children.
We published our findings in a newsletter, which was distributed to all homes in Jersey. You can see the results below:
