GPs? income dropped yet again in 2011/12, with GMS GPs seeing an average 0.7% decrease and PMS GPs a 1.6% fall, official statistics published today by the Health and Social Care Information Centre reveal.

The total gross earnings of all GPs increased by 0.5% to ?267,900, but expenses rose faster - increasing by 1.6% to ?164,900. This drove the all-important earnings-to-expenses ratio - the proportion of gross expenses taken up by earnings - up 0.7 percentage points to 61.6%, a new record since the introduction of the nGMS contract in 2004.
