📢 IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR OUR PATIENTS 📢
PLEASE READ
Have you received a letter from NHS England asking you to confirm your home address? Please don't ignore it!
Some patients are receiving letters asking them to confirm their address with the NHS as part of a national programme to ensure GP patient lists and contact details are accurate.
These letters are sent directly by NHS England, not by Barnby Gate Surgery.
⚠️ What happens if you don't respond?
If you do not reply by the deadline stated in your letter, NHS England may begin the process of removing you from your GP practice list. This could mean you are no longer registered with us when you next need medical care.
âś… What should you do?
• Follow the instructions in your letter to confirm your address, usually online.
• If you cannot respond online, follow the telephone instructions provided in the letter.
• Please respond by the deadline, even if your address has not changed.
• If you have moved house, please contact the practice via our website so we can update your details.
• If you are unsure what to do or need help, please get in touch with us.
📞 Please also remember to keep us updated if your telephone number, email address or home address changes – this can also be done via our website.
đź’™ You DO NOT need to book an appointment simply to remain registered with the practice. However, if you receive one of these letters, it is IMPORTANT that you respond.
Please share this post with family and friends who may also receive one of these letters.
