πŸ” How do I check my Catchment Area?

You can check your Catchment Area by going into your βš™οΈ Settings page:

‼️ NHSE have updated their catchment area mapping tools and you can update this at any point here - https://gp-catchment-welcome-nhsgisscw.hub.arcgis.com/.

Your practice manager or someone at your practice who does the 'EDEC submission' should be familiar with this and have a login.

Out of Area registrations:

If you'd like to accept out of area patients you'll need to ask the NHS E national service desk to add a tag to your surgery on the 'Find a GP' page. The national service desk can be reached at [email protected].
