General Practitioners with Extended Roles 

The RCGP has developed a framework in partnership with NHS England, which describes a new approach to the accreditation of GPs with Extended Roles (GPwERs) and is aligned to the appraisal and revalidation process. GPwERs undertake roles that are beyond the scope of GP training and the MRCGP and require additional training, and includes those previously referred to as GPs with Special Interests (GPwSIs)

You can read the new Framework on the RGGP website here,

Working with the British Association of Dermatologists and the Primary Care Dermatology Society, the RCGP has updated the dermatology specialty-specific (GPwSI) framework – see GPwERs for Dermatology and Skin Surgery
