Gibraltar Group Practice Medical Scheme

The Gibraltar Group Practice Medical Scheme is an organisation in the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar which deals with generating the funds and management resources of healthcare on the Rock.[1] As of 2003 it funded roughly £19 million ($27 million) of social insurance stamp contributions for the Gibraltar Health Authority.[2] Aside from dealing with the expenses of various medical treatments it also deals with issues such as free treatment under Social Security under the Employment Injuries Insurance Act, entitlement to registration and a free driving licence health examination for persons over the age of 70.
