If you need an NHS Covid pass medical exemption form please don’t call the surgery please follow these instructions:
Please call 119, and these steps outlined below will be followed.
- Request an NHS COVID Pass medical exemptions application form.
- 119 will then send an application form to those deemed eligible.
- 119 should inform and explain to any caller if they do not meet the pre-screening assessment criteria.
- 119 will send a largely pre-populated application form to those meeting the criteria. The applicants can complete it before sending it to the clinician identified during the 119 pre-assessment. This may be the GP, but could also be a specialist clinician familiar with the patient’s care and reasons for seeking medical exemption.
- The applicant will consequently receive an automated letter confirming the decision. This is not the responsibility of the practice and there is no right of appeal for the applicant.
