The data held within the GP medical records of patients is used by NHS England to support health and care planning and research in England, helping to find better treatments and improve patient outcomes for everyone.
NHS Digital has developed a new way to collect this data, called the General Practice Data for Planning and Research (GPDPR) data collection.
The Government announced on the 8th June 2021 that the planned data collection which was due to start at the beginning of July 2021 has now been delayed to September 2021.
What Will the Data Be Used For?
Patient data collected from general practice is needed to support a wide variety of research and analysis to help run and improve health and care services.
The General Practice Data for Planning and Research service will also help to support the planning and commissioning of health and care services, the development of health and care policy, public health monitoring and interventions and enable many different areas of research.
Opting out
