what does your doctor charge for ofsted forms

[abba1772]

i went to hand in my ofsted health declaration for ofsted as i am having to re-register all over again as we moved from scotland down to norfolk and was told it will be £50 for the doc to fill the form even though it costs £15 in scotland. why is it so high??????

[berkschick]

Mine was £80

From what I gather the fees varies from all over the country and depending on what Doctors surgery you have.

I guess that they know that if you want it enough you will pay for it.......unfair I know

[fionamal]

I didnt pay anything for mine when I got it done.

[son77]

I had to pay £60 but other local childminders paid as low as £15.

Its upto the individual practice to charge what they like.

[tulip0803]

It's purely down to what each doctor's surgery charges.

I am also having to re-register after moving from England to Wales and as far as I know I am not being charged, haven't had a bill yet anyway.

I paid £25, when I asked my development officer at the time she said that its an independent request and the doctor can charge as much or as little as they like!!

so im glad mine was cheap compared to some, my doctor is lovely !! xx

[button68]

Mine was £20 - hey! but on balance CM fees are cheaper around here too so I guess everything is relative

[sarah707]

My friend paid £50 the other day! She was horrified especially as the start-up grant has just gone down too!

[berkschick]

What start up grant? We get sweet nothing here!

Oh I tell a lie, I got the NCMA toolkit free, after fighting for 3 weeks to get it.

My hubby took his in yesterday and he was charged £32. We thought that was quite a lot, but having seen some of these posts it's not too bad. I still can't believe they charge so much for looking over a form we have already half filled in ourselves!!!

[bubbly]

My doc charged me £66

[Teresa]

Mine charged me £25 here in nottingham

[manjay]

Ours were £14 but there are two of us so £28 in total

usually my gp will charge 70 odd quid for a medical report but when i told them what it was for they actually recognised that i would be serving the community and done it for 30 quid instead..which i thought was rather honourable, dunno if it maybe worth playing the sympathy card a little????!!!!

[Banana]

I didnt get charged a thing. My doctor just took the form off me and said 'no worries i'll do it today'

He's always been nice to me so maybe it was a favour

[LittleMissSparkles]

my doctor charged me £35 but his charges were £70 so he did half it for me, but it went straight into his personal account not the practise one as the receptionist told me !!! and I had to write my cheeque out to him not the surgery xxxx

[nell57]

Mine charged £29 but that was over 3 years ago now so would not be surprised if not more by now.
