Private Winchester GP

+ Full Terms & Conditions for Subscription Plans

Subscription plans are intended to lessen and spread the cost of our private GP consultations over a 12 month period. They should not be construed as a guarantee of appointment availability, or availablity of a particular type of appointment, or of a particular practitioner. That said, we will make every reasonable endeavour to fit around your requirements.

Appointment allowances must be used within the 12 months of the plan and cannot be rolled over in to a subsequent plan year.

You may spend your appointment allowance in any combination of in person and remote (video/telephone) consultations. You may use any combination of single and double appointments. You may use your allowance for our specialist menopause and lifestyle medicine consultations, as well as for standard GP appointments. Higher value specialist consultations will require more appointment credits than standard GP appointments. There is no obligation to spread your consultations evenly between plan members. Winchester GP cannot engage in or be held responsible for any disagreement that emerges betweeen plan members in regards to how appointments have been allocated between plan members or any other disagreement that arises between plan members.

Redeeming unused appointments

In the first 10 months of your plan year, your appointment allowance can be used towards consultations only, and not towards any of our other services such as pathology. In the final 2 months of your plan year you may choose to 'cash in' some of your remaining appointment credits at the following rates:

Solo subscription - 1 remaining consultation

Nest subscription - 2 remaining consultations

Nest Plus subscription - 3 remaining consultations

Remaining appointments have a cash in value of £75 each and can be used for blood tests or ECGs. Alternatively, you can trade in your unused appointments for monthly money off your next year's subscription. Each unused appointment counts as £5/month off the following year. The same trade in limits apply- Solo- 1 appointment, Nest- 2 appointments, Nest Plus- 3 appointments.

In order to respect each individual plan member's confidentiality, you consent that any named plan member may book an appointment using your appointment allowance without explicit permission from you. You recognise that paying for someone's subscription does not compromise their right to confidentiality as per our standard confidentiality policy.

If you wish to cancel your subscription plan before the end of the plan year, you may do so with one month's written notice. In the event of an early cancellation, we will calculate the Pay As You Go value of the services received by you and your fellow plan members, and if this is more than the sum of the monthly payments made to date, you agree to pay the difference. No refund will be offered if the plan has been under utilised in that time.

If, in cancelling your subscription plan early, you wish to change to a new plan, this will be treated as an early cancellation of the first policy (per the protocol above). If you are ending your policy early because you have already fully utilised your appointment allowance and need a new allowance, you will need to pay off the first subscription in full before we will start a new subscription plan.

Upon written instruction from you, we will remove members from the plan but any appointment allowance they have used will still count towards your cumulative total for the year. Members removed from your plan may still access our services either on a pay as you go basis, or via their own subscription, if they so wish. If there is capacity in your plan, you may add subscribers through the course of the year. However, switching in and out of plan members to maximise it's benefit is not permitted.

Our strict cancellation policy of 24 hours applies to all bookings - appointment credits will not be refunded if cancellation is made with less than 24 hours notice.

If at any point Winchester GP feels that the doctor/patient relationship has broken down, for example but not limited to, if you or a plan member are rude or abusive to any member of staff, we reserve the right to terminate the agreement without notice. The Pay as you go value of all services rendered will be due if this exceeds the value of subscription payments made.
