About the research

Norwich Union Healthcare commissioned health research experts medeConnect to recruit a panel of 1,000 General Practitioners from across the UK to complete a comprehensive online survey. This panel is representative of the 38,000 GPs in the UK in terms of gender, ethnicity, practice type and location, and reflects the regional proportions of the UK. The research was conducted between 9th and 13th March 2007.
