NHS: Workplace Pensions
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the level of modernisation of Primary Care Support England's NHS Pensions Scheme processes.
Answered by Karin Smyth
Primary Care Support England (PCSE) follows the pension scheme requirements laid down by NHS Pensions. PCSE has provided an online portal, PCSE Online, which provides general practitioners (GPs), practices, and commissioners with a simple and efficient way to manage pension payments and provide visibility on the information held by PCSE in relation to their pension. PCSE Online enables GPs and non-GP partners to determine if their pension details held by PCSE are correct, identify any gaps, and gives them the ability to self-serve a number of administrative tasks, including submitting end-of-year pension certificates. PCSE draws information from PCSE Online to update the pension scheme records of GPs held by NHS Pensions.
