General Practitioners: Debts

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many GP surgeries are in deficit.

Answer

NHS England does not routinely collect this information, as general practitioner practices are independently run private businesses - which are mostly partnerships in nature - and are therefore not required to publish their accounts in the same way that limited companies are required to file theirs with Companies House.
