Hi, thanks for your reply, its a practice with several doctors which is part of a bigger group with 6 practices and a care home. After 3 and a half months of arguing between the senior partner, the hospital and the CCG, me being told “its the hospitals responsibility”, amongst other excuses I contacted NHS England and then still having heard nothing by January I contacted the CQC. The following day I received a phonecall from the practice saying “they had now been given the go-ahead to do the vaccines”. Amazing what happens when you speak to the right people.
I have since had a reply to a letter I sent to my GP in November explaining their “reasons” for not doing them earlier but all that it actually does is confirm my original suspicion that it was all about who is paying for them and he still doesn’t know if he will be paid for them. Should I care?
At least I have been able to start revaccination at last but unfortunately I now face another delay due to being hospitalised with a lung infection.
I’d actually read all the info from Myeloma UK and understood it to be standard practice that your specialist refers you back to your GP. Hope no-one else has this problem but if they do then I suggest contacting the CQC as soon as you can to save a lot of time.
