General Practitioner's Report
The Agreement between the ABI and BMI, along with the Data Protection Act, requires the GP to ensure all information is adequate, relevant and not excessive.
We will treat any information you provide strictly in line with our confidentiality policy. This keeps to the guidelines issued by the Association of British Insurers (ABI). We will not use the information to assess insurance applications from anyone other than the applicant. The questions in this form are standard across the insurance industry for health and life-protection products. They have been agreed between the Association of British Insurers and the British Medical Association.
The format of this report is based on the agreed Insurance Industry Standard eGPR.
It is important that the signing GP checks the report for any errors and removes any references to third parties before sending to the company.
The GP must ensure that all relevant information is included for each section. If the record has been summarised from the Lloyd George and only "headline" data for the illness provided the GP must edit the report extract to provide the additional data relevant to the insurance applied for i.e. to confirm outcome of the problem and ensure the other sections of the report contain details of any associated investigations or treatment.

Statement on releasing genetic test results
We do not need predictive genetic test results in this report as the insurance includes a temporary suspension on genetic test results. You must not include any predictive genetic test results that show that the patient has an increased risk of disease. You may include in the answer to question 5 any genetic test results that show that the patient has a normal or reduced risk of disease. Some companies use this information in underwriting.
Relevant information
