HC Deb 27 October 1994 vol 248 c831W
Ms Primarolo

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if she will make a statement on the opportunities for patients to speak to a doctor prior to a home visit by that doctor.

Mr. Malone

In general, there should be no difficulty in speaking to a doctor before a home visit. However, it is for individual general practitioners to decide how to organise their patient contacts.
