A fairer GP funding system is essential to tackling health inequalities.

We welcome the government's review of the Carr-Hill formula — a long-overdue chance to make funding fairer and improve access for those who need it most. buff.ly/Wd7ROzh #HealthInequalities #NHS
Patients from deprived and coastal communities have been left behind by an outdated and unfair GP funding distribution system; this review of the Carr-Hill formula is a long-overdue chance to put that right.
