It’s incredible how people like Oxford and Nofear initial inclination is to make this Capita’s fault. So the question is why is their default position to accentuate the worst case scenario?
The article recites as follows:-
Capita told Pulse that it was factually incorrect to state that missing years are due to PCSE’s ‘mismanagement’ of pension records.
They claimed that over 15,000 GPs have not submitted the necessary Type 1 or Type 2 forms for one or more pension years in which they have been an active scheme member, and without these forms PCSE are unable to update their record.
A Capita spokesperson told Pulse: ‘We reject the BMA’s assertion that missing pensions records are the result of PCSE mismanagement.
‘We are currently waiting on responses from more than 8,000 GPs who need to provide certificates to resolve missing years in their pensions records. More than 3,000 cases submitted to us after the 31 March deadline are still being processed.
‘It is not appropriate or helpful to advise all GPs who have missing years to raise a complaint, when we may be awaiting action from GPs and when an increase in spurious complaints will simply lead to delays.
