Overview

• Summary of dataset and variables:

  The information presented here shows the number of local health board managed practices and staff employed in them (full-time equivalent) by local health board at every quarterly snapshot date since 31 December 2021. A managed practice is a practice where, in the absence of a contract between the health board and a GP partner, the local health board manages the general practice with staff that may include salaried GPs and GP locums.

• Data collection or calculation:

  Managed practices are identified each quarter from practice information provided by NHS Shared Services Partnership. All statistics in this StatsWales cube are based on only these practices.

• Statistical quality:

  Nearly all practices will record their locum GP sessions through Locum Hub Wales (LHW) as this is a requirement for that work to be covered by The Scheme for General Medical Practice Indemnity (GMPI). The only practices which may not do this are local health board managed practices, which directly employ staff through health board contracts, rather than through independent primary care contracts. Locum work in health board managed practices is covered by the health board’s indemnity rather than GMPI. GP locums may also use LHW as a scheduling tool, so they may record sessions through LHW, even when working in a local health board managed practice.

  From 31 March 2024, data are included for locum work in local health board managed practices that were not recorded through LHW.
