Broadly, this means that if, in the opinion of the GP, your condition requires emergency treatment you will not be charged for a consultation with the GP.

If you require treatment or medication for a pre-existing condition you will be charged a fee, which then should be claimed back via your insurance company.

Please note that these conditions also apply to British nationals living abroad. 

If you are in the area for less than 24 hours and have an accident you can receive emergency treatment at the Minor Injuries Unit at West Mendip Hospital .

Should you be registered with another practice locally you are required to attend your own practice where your medical notes are available.
