this is a council who PH plates a horse and carriage, nothing surprises me! all we ask for is a level playing field, ive 4 sets of forms here, for different LA's, they all vary by miles in costs and requirements, do they make the rules up as they go along? |

Round our way it depends which doctors surgery you are registered with My doctors £41.15 Other main surgery £115 But if your not registered with my surgery they won't do a medical you have to go to your own doctors but a BIG difference in price between the two practises ! |
