Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to improve access to GP services in (a) Coventry North East constituency and (b) Coventry.

Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care Board has undertaken a communications campaign for patients to advertise how to access general practitioner (GP) services in the area and the range of services available from healthcare professionals in local practices. This has included radio advertisements, printed materials available in GP practices and a leaflet sent to homes in Coventry and Warwickshire. There are a variety of appointments available, including face-to-face, telephone and e-consultations to offer patients flexibility and convenience.
