Expenses
All Registrars must use Gloucestershire Hospitals electronic expenses system in order to claim expenses. The system is called EASY and is linked to the ESR system. Registrars will need to self register on the EASY system. Please contact Gemma Cooke if you have any issues with this.
The deadline for submitting expense claims is the 3rd of each month. Claims will be rejected unless all the information has been completed correctly and proof of payment, if applicable, has been uploaded.
Claiming mileage - If you need to claim for any mileage throughout training, you will need to send the following to the training programme team prior to claiming;
- Completed vehicle application form
- Copy of your MOT certificate
- Copy of your driving licence
- Copy of your insurance certificate stipulating business use
Further details including the rates of reimbursement of travel costs can be found here.
For some Registrars, the electronic mileage system does not work due to home-base calculations, in this instance, a paper form must be completed upon agreement with the programme team in order to make a claim. The form can be found on Glasscubes in the Expenses file.

All Registrars, unless in an agreement with Diane Lloyd to use electronic expense forms for Relocation expenses, must use the EASY electronic expense system when claiming expenses. This includes study leave expenses.
Expenses must be claimed for on a monthly basis; for example, for a deadline of the 3rd of January, claims in December should be claimed.
Relocation Expenses
Relocation expenses should be discussed and agreed with the training programme on commencement of training in the South West. The relocation policy and guidelines can be found here.
Registrars must complete a paper expenses form for all relocation expenses. The form can be found on Glasscubes in the Expenses file.
Telephone expenses
If you are claiming telephone expenses in relation to your work you should claim on the Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust reimburse for telephone expenses claim form. You can claim for the cost of a telephone call and you must submit a receipt which confirms the cost of the call(s). You should complete the first form only when you make your first claim and the second form at all times when you make a claim. Once completed the claim form should be sent to Gemma Cooke for processing.
