General Practice and Primary Care Network Profiles

The Office for Health Improvement & Disparities’ Fingertips present information at practice level and at Primary Care Network (PCN) level (combinations of practices working together) within their GP Profiles for Patients and their National General Practice Profiles. As at March 2025, these profiles appear to be accurate in relation to the current configuration of GP practices and PCNs within Hull, but this is not always the case as there have been a number of GP practices merging in Hull and changes to the PCNs in Hull in the last few years.

Number of Patients Registered With Hull GPs

Information relating to the number of patients registered with Hull’s 28 General Practices is given in Population Estimates under Population.

There are considerable differences between the number of patients registered with GPs in Hull and the resident population as around 8% of patients registered with Hull GPs live in neighbouring East Riding of Yorkshire. Furthermore, the number of people living within Hull based on GP registration data differs considerably from official estimates of the resident population produced by the Office for National Statistics. The differences are examined further within Population Estimates under Population.

Sub Integrated Care Board Areas

In July 2022, Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) ceased to exist and were replaced by the Integrated Care System. The sub Integrated Care Board areas which include Hull are within the Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board. In Fingertips, the sub-ICB area referenced by 03F relates to Hull which is the code applied to NHS Hull CCG. With the following file, it is possible to decipher the area names given to the sub-ICB areas with meaningful place names.

Primary Care Networks

Primary Care Networks form a key building block of the NHS Long-Term Plan. They bring general practices together to work at scale. This has been a policy priority for some years for a range of reasons including improving the ability of practices to recruit and retain staff, to manage financial and estate pressures, to provide a wider range of services to patients and to more easily integrate with the wider health and care system.

On the 1 October 2022, Delta Healthcare (which was in HASP PCN) was no longer allocated to a PCN, with services provided by Marmot PCN.

The latest PCNs in Hull are:

• Acclaim;
• HASP (Hull Association of Similar Practices);
• Haxby;
• Marmot;
• Hull Family Practice (sometimes reference under its old name of Medicas);
• Modality (sometimes prefixed by Hull);
• Symphonie (sometimes prefixed by Hull); and
• Venn.

The number of GP practices has reduced considerably over time with practices merged together forming larger practices. At its peak in 2010, there were 60 GP practices in Hull, but this had gradually reduced to 55 by early 2016. There were more changes during 2016 with the number of practices falling to 47 by January 2017, to 40 by September 2017 and to 39 by July 2018. By May 2019, the number of practices had fallen to 35, and by June 2019 the number of practices had fallen to 33. Between July 2020 and April 2023, the number of practices remained at 32 in Hull, but has reduced to 29 practices following three recent mergers in spring 2023, and further reduced to 28 practices with a merger in December 2023.

All practices except Delta Healthcare are within one of eight local Primary Care Network (between May 2022 and March 2023, there were seven PCNs in Hull and prior to May 2022 there were five PCNs in Hull). Delta Healthcare continues to be unallocated to a PCN with services provided by Marmot PCN.

In some cases, the location or sites of the (closed) practice remained open so that whilst number of the ‘official’ GP practices reduced when mergers occurred, the number of sites where GP practices operated did not reduce as rapidly as there are a number of ‘branch’ surgeries. It does mean that it is not always obvious when practices have merged in Hull.

General Practice Profiles

General Practice Profiles for Patients are available on The Office for Health Improvement & Disparities’ Fingertips as well as National General Practice Profiles. These profiles do not always reflect the current primary care structure within Hull due to recent mergers of practices or changes to Primary Care Networks. However, as at March 2025, the number of practices in Hull is correct with information presented on the current 28 practices in Hull, although it is possible if information is presented on Fingertips from an earlier period of time, then the number of practices or make up of the PCNs may differ to the current configuration.

Within the GP Profiles for Patients on Fingertips, information is presented at practice level on the following:

• Key indicators – workforce, average number of appointments per registered patient, the percentage reporting a positive experience at their GP practice and the total funding per patient; and
• More details – percentage of patients enabled to book and cancel appointments online and order repeat prescriptions online and view detailed coded records online, percentage of electronic prescription items out of all items prescribed and percentage of patients who did not attend appointments (DNAs).

Within the National General Practice Profiles on Fingertips, information is presented at practice level on the following:

• Summary – age profile of population, deprivation and some information from the GP Patient Survey;
• Cancer – diagnosed prevalence, screening for cancer and hospital activity;
• Cancer two week wait – referral rates, types of suspected cancer and detection rates;
• Coronary heart disease – diagnosed prevalence, treatment and blood pressure;
• Stroke and transient ischaemic attack (mini stroke) – diagnosed prevalence, treatment and blood pressure;
• Heart failure and atrial fibrillation – diagnosed prevalence and treatment;
• Risk factors for cardiovascular disease – hypertension (high blood pressure), smoking and excess weight;
• Diabetes – diagnosed prevalence, non-diabetic hyperglycaemia, treatment, review and outcomes;
• Maternal and child health – age profile of population, deprivation, vaccination uptake rates and hospital activity;
• Mental health – diagnosed prevalence of depression and dementia, percentage reporting other mental health disorders, review and treatment;
• Musculoskeletal conditions – diagnosed prevalence of osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis, and percentages reporting long-term musculoskeletal problem or joint problem;
• Respiratory disease – diagnosed prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma, review, treatment and smoking;
• Antimicrobial resistance – rate of antibiotic items prescribed; and
• Other conditions – diagnosed prevalence of chronic kidney disease, epilepsy, and learning disabilities, percentages requiring palliative care, percentages reporting ‘long COVID’, blindness or partial blindness, deafness or hearing loss, and uptake of shingles vaccination.

GP Patient Survey

The GP Patient Survey is an annual survey where patients are randomly selected from practice registers and asked to participate in the survey. Patients are asked about their health as well as the ease of contacting their GP practice and their satisfaction with their GP practice.

The results are available at Primary Care Network level for 2024 on NHS GP Patient Survey Primary Care Network Dashboard, however, it is not possible to provide a unique website link to individual Primary Care Networks and it is necessary to search for Hull’s PCNs individually.

The dashboard includes summary information on the topics given within the questionnaire and each topic can be selected at the bottom of the screen in the tabs, and then within each tab there is the opportunity to show the data for different questions.

• Acclaim (reference U76349);
• HASP (reference U76753);
• Haxby (reference U37411);
• Marmot (reference U79397);
• Hull Family Practice (given under previous PCN name of Medicas – reference U82095);
• Modality (reference U62384);
• Symphonie (reference U88890); and
• Venn (reference U03824).

Based on the information within their dashboard, 2,980 patients in total participated out of 11,714 invited to take part which gives a response rate of 25% for Hull PCNs.

Primary Care Network Profiles

The GP Profiles for Patients and the National General Practice Profiles are also available on Fingertips at Primary Care Network level.

The name of the Hull Family Practice PCN is recorded as the older name of Hull Medicas on Fingertips. Additionally, HASP is listed as Hull Association of Similar Practices, and both Modality and Symphonie are prefixed by Hull.

Within the GP Profiles for Patients on Fingertips, information is presented at practice level on the following:

• Key indicators – workforce, average number of appointments per registered patient, the percentage reporting a positive experience at their GP practice and the total funding per patient; and
• More details – percentage of patients enabled to book and cancel appointments online and order repeat prescriptions online and view detailed coded records online, percentage of electronic prescription items out of all items prescribed and percentage of patients who did not attend appointments (DNAs).

The following profiles are available at PCN level on Fingertips:

• Summary – age profile of population, deprivation and some information from the GP Patient Survey;
• Cancer – diagnosed prevalence, screening for cancer and hospital activity;
• Cancer two-week wait – referral rates, types of suspected cancer and detection rates;
• Coronary heart disease – diagnosed prevalence, treatment and blood pressure;
• Stroke and transient ischaemic attack (mini stroke) – diagnosed prevalence, treatment and blood pressure;

• Antimicrobial resistance – rate of antibiotic items prescribed; and
• Other conditions – diagnosed prevalence of chronic kidney disease, epilepsy, and learning disabilities, percentages requiring palliative care, percentages reporting ‘long COVID’, blindness or partial blindness, deafness or hearing loss, and uptake of shingles vaccination.

Primary Care Disease Prevalence from Quality and Outcomes Framework

The diagnosed prevalence of various diseases and medical conditions is available at practice level and Primary Care Network level from the Quality and Outcomes Framework (further information within the Glossary).

Further details are included within a Local Analysis of the Quality and Outcomes Framework Data which is available under Tools and Resources, and the diagnosed prevalence (and any statistically significant association between the prevalence and average age of patients or average deprivation score of patients) is given within the relevant disease and medical condition under Health Factors within Adults or in the case of learning disabilities and mental ill health under Vulnerable Groups.

In the local analysis, practices have been divided into five approximately equal-sized groups (based on total list size) based on the average deprivation score of their patients (Index of Multiple Deprivation 2019) and five approximately equal-sized groups (based on total list size) based on the average age of their patients. The prevalence of diagnosed disease have been presented for each GP practice in Hull, for each Primary Care Network, and for these locally derived deprivation and age groups. The prevalence has also been presented for the six sub Integrated Care Board areas within the local Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board, England and 10 comparator sub-Integrated Care Board areas for comparison reasons.

Ward Profiles

Ward Profiles are also available for each of Hull’s 21 electoral wards as well as for Hull overall and for each local deprivation fifth.
