The General Practice Forward View (GPFV) outlined the challenge that GPs are facing on rising indemnity costs, and stated that GPs should not be negatively affected by the cost of clinical negligence cover above that of their secondary care counterpart doctors. This policy is designed to help NHS England meet that aim.
