A
Conservative MP has set up a website for people to
report problems obtaining appointments with their GPs
within the 48-hour national target. Mr Grant Shapps,
MP for Welwyn Hatfield, believes that the target is
not complied with as widely as the government suggest.
The MP has
devised a website to record information from patients
confirming whether they are having problems in
obtaining an appointment within the 2 day period
allowed.
The delays
can be extremely troublesome for many patients and
this may lead to
complaints
for medical negligence against the GPs concerned.
