The use of CCP appears to be actually quite low with visits from the 10000 people number about 40 a day – producing a persistent utilisation rate of ±1 visit per person per annum. This is a far cry from the current public services 2 visits per annum, the cash GP visits of 4 per annum and medical aid GP visits of 6 per annum. Does this mean that patients are not aware or not choosing to come to us or is the utilisation elsewhere actually over-utilisation driven by other considerations?
