GPs call for nationwide boycott of Etiqa
There is a clarion call for a nationwide boycott by GPs in the form of suspension of cashless services to all Etiqa panels. This apparently has come about by Etiqa forcing the removal of GPs from it’s panel for not opening a bank account with a single bank selected by Etiqa. There are also other outstanding issues which the GPs are not happy about.
This blog post is to create awareness amongst GPs of the situation and you can get more information from the various GP organisations
MPCN (Facebook group)
MPCAM (the NGO initiating the boycott)
FPMPAM
and also MMA on their Facebook page
The MMA President has made a statement in the MMA Facebook page
