Non-NHS work and fees
Some work GPs do is not covered by the NHS. We may charge a fee for private letters, reports, medical forms and other non-NHS work.
Fees
All non-NHS work is considered private and will incur a charge, unless an exemption applies.

| GP letter | £50 |
| GP report with no face-to-face appointment, such as forms requiring GP opinion | £100 |
| GP report with face-to-face appointment, such as fostering, taxi or HGV medical | £200 |
| Bus or travel pass | £50 |
| Fit to travel letter | £50 |
| Holiday cancellation form | £100 |
