AJ-PRAC – Partnership Reallocation Job
This job will enable you to:
· reallocate all or part of a GP's patient list to one GP or more within the same
Partnership, without the Partnership being terminated;
· request pre-printed labels; and
· request letters to patients to be printed.
A partnership reallocation allows part or all of a GP's patient list to be moved to
another GP, or to other GPs in the same practice. The patients can only be transferred
in this way at the request of the practice.
NOTE Ø
All receiving GPs entered on the AJ-PRAC screen must be in the same
practice – on the PC screen – as the "donating" GP.
The purpose of this job is to enable the balancing of patient numbers among the GPs
of a practice. This partnership reallocation job is not appropriate for transferring
patients when a GP dies, or when a GP is removed from the Medical List for any other
reason. Where there is a change in the members of a partnership, the Bulk Transfer
application is used (see Section 9).
Before a Partnership Reallocation is performed, the Health Authority and Practice
must agree who will take responsibility for informing the patients concerned, and who
will bear the cost.
In order to keep the Health Authority and Practice databases in line,
Health Authorities must ensure that all outstanding transactions
involving the donating GP (if linked), are cleared before initiating a
Partnership Reallocation.
It is also advisable to telephone the practice 48 hours in advance of the
Practice Reallocation Job being run. This is to prevent any new
transactions involving the donating GP for the practice being sent via the
link prior to the practice Reallocation.
