My feeling is the same as yours
My way forward on this is along the lines that if they offer and are allowed to offer a a discriminatory service their funding formula should be appropriately adjusted We not only have to offer a non-discriminatory service to anyone who comes through our door but must go out of our way to demonstrate we are doing all we can to reach out to those who are vulnerable From: CHUNG, Chi (MAPESBURY MEDICAL GROUP) <[email protected]> Sent: 26 January 2022 21:01 To: DE KARE-SILVER, Nigel (GLADSTONE MEDICAL CENTRE) <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [Nwl_cd] Re: (no subject) Hi Nigel This company is called Livi, a private GP video consultation company: https://www.livi.co.uk/ It appears they have gained a large following and have a very similar model to Babylon and I completely agree with you about the types of patients they will attract. This will result in declining GP list sizes and will certainly destabilise local GP practices. This is exactly what happened when Babylon started registering NHS patients in the Fulham area a few years ago… Kind Regards, Chi Dr Chi Chung GP Partner- Mapesbury Medical Group Clinical Director- Kilburn Primary Care Network This e-mail and any files transmitted are confidential and may be legally privileged.

We have been told there is a new one out called Livia (?) Does anyone have any thoughts about the equity of contracts these practices may have? Concerns raised are along the lines that these practice by their nature discriminate against IT illiterate, poor English language, those in need of eg physical examination, smears, vaccines, dressings etc Concerns raised include that the nature of the population who sign up are often those with transient mild illness needing a fix which destabilises the rest of general practice looking after and caring for remaining and often high complex groups without any commensurate funding to take this into account?
