OFNC seeks views in GOS survey

A survey launched by the Optometric Fees Negotiating Committee (OFNC) sought to gather the views and concerns of general ophthalmic services (GOS) contractors.  

Findings would be used by the OFNC to put forward a strong case for an increase in the GOS sight test fee during negotiations with NHS England.  

Questions asked about how the last two years have impacted costs, which would help the OFNC identify how wider pressures were affecting practices. 

The OFNC encouraged all business owners to complete the survey and have their say on what optical services should look like in 2024.
