Real-terms change in GP pay, actual and projected, since 2006/07

Source: Institute for Government analysis of NHS Digital, 'GP earnings and expenses estimates' 2023/24 ('1a. Contractor earn. by country' and '7a. Salaried by country' tables).Notes: Figures relate to England. This chart uses CPI to put GP pay into real terms. Forecast is based on announced pay deals. We do not start the time series earlier, because 2006/07 is the first year for which there is both GP partner and salaried GP earnings. It is not possible to project GP partner pay as there are no recommendations for the amount that they will draw as salary. Get the data Download image
