NHS services provided by GP surgeries are free at the point of care, but certain tasks fall outside the scope of NHS funding. This “private work” may include writing medical reports, completing insurance forms, preparing letters for travel, and other non-NHS documentation. Because the NHS does not cover these services, GPs must carry them out in their own time, often requiring careful review of medical records and professional judgement. The fees charged reflect the time, expertise, and administrative resources involved in ensuring the information provided is accurate, thorough, and completed to the required standards.
