About Us
Wolverhampton Local Medical Committee represents the GPs of Wolverhampton.
Local Medical Committees are recognised by statute (NHS Act 2006, as amended by the Health and Social Care Act 2012) as the bodies representing all NHS GPs practising in a stated geographical area. An LMC represents all NHS GPs in its area, regardless of contractual status. It represents the views of its GPs to other local agencies, bodies, and health providers in its locality.
We represent, in total, around 57 Practices and over 300 GPs, whether Partners, Salaried GPs, or freelance locums. We exist solely to represent, advise, and support GPs and their Practices.
The Local Medical Committee is elected by the GP constituents it covers and is entirely independent. The LMC has formed a Board comprising the elected Chairman and Vice-Chairman, secretary and treasurer.
All LMCS are funded by a statutory levy which is collected from Practices, and is based on the number of patients registered at that Practice. The amount is set by the Board and reviewed annually. It funds the office and Officers of the LMC, as well as the individual Committees.
