Type of Data Collection
Data Collection Methods
GP Patient Survey is conducted annually by Ipsos on behalf of NHS England. Patients are randomly selected from all GP practices in England, using the Personal Demographics Service. Patients were eligible for inclusion in the survey if they had a valid NHS number, had been registered with a GP practice continuously for at least six months at the point of selection, and were 16 years of age or over. The survey uses a quantitative postal methodology, including an option for online completion. In January 2023, questionnaires were sent to around 2.65 million patients aged 16 or over followed by an SMS reminder one week after the initial mailing, to all those with a valid mobile phone number. Two full reminder mailings (letters and questionnaires) were then sent to non-responders in February and March, both followed by an SMS reminder one week later.
