Shared care is not a lower support pathway. Although your GP may issue prescriptions and arrange blood tests, this pathway still involves ongoing clinician-led oversight, treatment planning, documentation, and communication with yourself and your GP to support safe care.
Shared care is only available after at least 6 months of well monitored care and where your GP agrees.
What ongoing care usually includes
Ongoing care is there to help treatment stay safe, practical, and well supported over time.
What this usually includes:
- Regular blood tests at the intervals agreed with your clinician
- Review appointments to interpret results and agree any changes safely
- Prescribing based on clinical review
- Clear documentation that can support shared care discussions later if you choose
- Ongoing support through your Carebit portal and the wider team where needed
Shared care option after 6 months
After at least 6 months of stable, well-monitored care, you can request shared care.
If your GP agrees, they may take on prescribing and blood tests, while you continue to receive clinician-led review, treatment recommendations, documentation and support from Pride In Health.
If your GP does not agree, you can continue privately so you are not left without care.
What shared care usually needs
- A clear summary of current treatment and stability
- Evidence of consistent monitoring and timely follow-up
- A clinical contact framework the GP practice can rely on
- A clear plan for what is being asked of the GP, and what remains with our clinical team
Shared care is always at the discretion of the GP practice, even when everything is stable. It is worth speaking to your GP early, so you know what may be realistic in your area.
