Summary
The aim of the publication is to inform users about activity and usage of GP appointments historically and how primary care is impacted by seasonal pressures, such as winter.
NHS Digital publishes this information to support winter preparedness and provide information about some activity within primary care. The publication covers historic appointments, marked as attended or did not attend, from national to CCG coverage. The aim is to inform users, who range from a healthcare professional to an inquiring citizen, about appointments within primary care.
The publication includes data from participating practices using EMIS, TPP, MICROTEST and VISION GP systems.

This limits the activity reported on and does not represent all work happening within a primary care setting or assess the complexity of activity.
