GP Practices have analysed patient demand in the run up to Christmas and New Year in 2020 and 2021. This data shows there is a greater demand for appointments in the days prior to bank holidays and lower demand on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, particularly in the afternoons. GP practices are therefore working together to ensure more capacity and appointments are available at the beginning of the weeks leading up to Christmas and New Year.
