General practice update – February 2024

9 April 2024

General practices offered more than 933,000 appointments to patients across Kent and Medway in February. 

This is 68,000 more appointments offered than last February and 139,000 more appointments than in February 2022.

Around 66 per cent of appointments these appointments were face-to-face or home visits. 

The data also shows more than 38,000 people did not attend their appointments. 

Most people who are unable to attend their appointment cancel them to allow other people in need to use them. We would urge anyone who can no longer attend any appointment to please let their practice know.
