To be eligible to claim the £300 engagement and set up payment for the GP CPCS, contractors were required to have completed the activities listed in Annex F of the CPCS  service specification by 30th June 2021. Contractors should ensure they keep documented evidence to show that all activities have been completed for Post Payment Verification purposes.

Any payments for this claim will not be affected by this extension; contractors will still receive their payments on time if they submit their claims by the new deadline, having meet the relevant criteria.
