General Practitioners: Average Earnings
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 2 April 2025 to Question 42329 on General Practitioners: Finance, what the average salary was within the earnings data used in the staff market forces factor element of the Carr-Hill formula for (a) Cambridgeshire and (b) nationally.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
The Market Forces Factor used in the Carr-Hill formula is the difference in relative earnings due to geographical location alone, after removing the modelled impact on earnings differences across the country due to differences in the industry, occupation and age of employees. The value for Cambridgeshire after removing the impact of these factors is £15.94 per hour. A national figure was not produced as only the relative impact of geographical locations across the country is required for the Market Forces Factor. The research report did not include unadjusted earnings figures.
