🏥 Why is my Notional Rent reimbursement abated?
Your Notional Rent may be reduced (“abated”) for a few common reasons, such as:
💷 Improvement grants — if NHS funding has contributed to refurbishments or extensions, an abatement is applied for a set period.
🤝 Third-party use — if you rent space to other providers, reimbursement may be adjusted unless approved.
📏 Under-utilised space — if parts of the building aren’t needed for core NHS services, the valuer can reduce the reimbursed area.
In short: abatements usually reflect grant-funded improvements, non-practice use, or surplus space. ✅

There are several reasons why your notional rent could be abated, including the practice receiving an improvement grant, the GP surgery renting out space to alternative healthcare providers or the practice under-utilising their space.
