Due to the recent measles outbreaks, GP practices are permitted to administer MMR vaccines to eligible staff who are registered with another practice, under Immediately Necessary Treatment (INT).
This is a time limited arrangement from 1st August 2025 until 31st March 2026.
Completing doses must be administered in accordance with the recommended intervals in the Green Book.
An item of service fee cannot be claimed for MMR vaccines administered to staff registered with another practice. However, indemnity cover will be provided through the Clinical Negligence Scheme for General Practice (CNSGP) and nationally supplied MMR stock can be used.
Staff must be strongly encouraged to inform their registered practice that they have received an MMR vaccine and request this is included in their medical records.
